What Could Have Been

G       D
Ooo ooo ooooo-oo
G      Dma7
Ooo oh oo


[Verse 1]
G      D               A
It was never black and white

Gray spots left colorblind
G                          D
But we jumped with closed eyes
          G
Mm, small glimpse of a bright light
A                       D
Still warms the coldest night
A
From deep inside the core of ...


[Pre-Chorus]
Em                    D
My bones they hold a secret now
G            Em                           F#m  A  D
And got the gaze to keep the darkness out


[Chorus]
G           Fm
Wasn't it a great life
A             Bm
If only for a moment
G                             D
When you were teaching me to take flight
    A              Bm
And view something new
G                 D
Wasn't it a great life
A             Bm
If only for a moment
G             D                  A
When I got to share it all with you


[Verse 2]
G              Bm   A                   D         G
We could never know if this house could be a home for more
D            A
Than a day or two
Continues after the ad
D                     G
There's no happy ever after
   Bm                  A         D
No silence filled with laughter
     G       D
Only memories
              A
From which we grew...


[Pre-Chorus]
                      Em                 Bm      G
Inside of these bones they hold a secret now
             Em              D
And got the gaze to keep the darkness out
A                 Em                 G
And my bones they hold a secret now
            Em               F#m      D
And got the gaze to keep the darkness out


[Chorus]
G            D
Wasn't it a great life
A               Bm
If only for a moment
G                                  D
When you were teaching me to take flight
    A
And view something new
G             D
Wasn't it a great life
A             Bm
If only for a moment
G             D                  A
When I got to share it all with you


[Bridge]
                   G
It's my happy ever after
        D                             G    D
To have held a dream so elegant in my heart

In my heart
                   G
It's my happy ever after
        A      A#       Bm             G    D  A
To have held a dream so delicate in my arms

In my arms

Oh, no


[Chorus]
G             D
Wasn't it a great life
A              Bm
If only for a moment
G                                 D
When you were teaching me to take flight
    A              Bm
And view something new
G                 D
Wasn't it a great life
A    A#        Bm
If only for a moment
G             D                 A
When I got to share it all with you

No, no, no
G            D
Wasn't it a great life
A             Bm
If only for a moment
G                                  D
When you were teaching me to take flight
    A
And view something new
G                D
Wasn't it a great life
A             Bm
If only for a moment
G             D                 A
When I got to share it all with you


[Other]
F#           G
Share it all with you
Bm  A
Oh Oh
                  G  D
Share it all with you
