If I Told You

G D Em C

[Verse]
 G
What if I told you about my little 
nothing town
 D
The two room house where I came from
 Em
The man that I got my name from
 C
I don't even know where he is now

 G
What if I told you sometimes I lose 
my faith
 D
I wonder why someone like you would 
even talk to me
 Em
What if I told you there's no fixing
 me
 C
Cause everybody's already tried

[Pre-chorus]
       G
Would you stay?
       D
Would you leave?
   Em
I could wait
             C
It'll all come out eventually

[Chorus]
     G                       D
If I told you all the stupid things 
I've done
                Em
I've blamed on being young
           C
But I was old enough to know I know
     G                             
If I told you the mess that I can 
Bm
be
Bm                              Em
When there's no one there to see
Em                           C
Could you look the other way?
Continues after the ad
C                        G D Em C
Could you love me anyway?

[Verse]
 G
What if I told you I don't plan on 
staying here
 D
My dreams are a million miles away
 Em
And I know your family's gonna want 
you to stay
      C
You know what I don't blame 'em

[Pre-chorus]

    G
So I'll say
             D
What I don't want to
              Em
And I'll just pray
              C
You want what I do

[Chorus]

     G                        D
If I told you all the stupid things 
I've done
                Em
I've blamed on being young
           C
But I was old enough to know I know
     G                             
If I told you the mess that I can 
Bm
be
Bm                              Em
When there's no one there to see
Em                           C
Could you look the other way?
C                        G   D
Could you love me anyway?
D                        Em  C
Could you love me anyway?

[Bridge]

G
So before we go any further here
D
Let a week turn into another year
       Em
There's some things you probably 
don't wanna hear
       C
But you have to

[Chorus]

     G                       
If I told you sometimes I get 
 D
jealous
D                  Em
Sometimes I'm half crazy
                   C
Would you say the hell with me, the 
hell with me
     G                           
If I told you I barely know what 
Bm
love is
Bm                       Em
But girl if that's what this is
Em               C
I don't want to let it slip away
C         G
No, no, no
