What If I(Chords)

	        
Intro: C Dm C F / C Bb F 

C                 Dm            C            F 
Driving home from work another day from 9 to 5 another 
C                Bb              F 
Traffic jam will soon be killing me 
    C               Dm 
The telephone keeps ringing wild while 
  C                F 
I try to find some peace and silence 
C         Bb                 F 
I imagine what my life could be 

C   Dm C            F 
Why do I don't open up my mouth and 
D 
Tell them what I fell inside 
F 
It's time to free my mind 

C            Dm             C 
   What if I run, What if I hide 
          F                  C 
What if I leave this world behind 
        Bb              F 
Before another day goes by 
What if I? 
C            Dm                   C 
   What if I think, what would I choose 
             F                C 
If there is nothing left to lose 
                 Bb                F 
This life's too short to waste my time 
until the day I die. 

  C                Dm 
I tell myself I'm strong enough 
     C                F 
And tough enough to bear this cross 
C              Bb                 F 
Hoping that by hurting back won't break 
       C               Dm 
But as soon as I start thinking about 
    C                  F 
The sense of life I'm sure it's not my 
C          Bb           F 
Destiny to make my body ache 

C   Dm C                  F 
Why do I don't break this chains that bind me 
    D 
and do just what I need to 
         F 
They can tell that I'm a fool 

C            Dm             C 
   What if I run, What if I hide 
          F                  C 
What if I leave this world behind 
        Bb              F 
Before another day goes by 
What if I? 
C            Dm                   C 
   What if I think, what would I choose 
             F                C 
If there is nothing left to lose 
                 Bb                F 
This life's too short to waste my time 
until the day I die.
