If I Cant Have You

INTRO:
     C

(# Spoken #)
To say it's love would be too 
simple, too obvious
It's more like a calling, a vocation
Something I was put on this earth to
 do
Now I'm shooting with the stars and 
I'm flying with the angels
                      G            
And my heartbeat is a symphony, the
                 C
 closer I get to you


                F               
I never saw you coming, 'til you 
                   C
came and here you are
                    F              
I never thought someone would ever 
                  C
dare to come this far
                    F              
You're up for the resistance and 
                  G
I'm strong in my persistence

And I've never known a remedy like 
ours


CHORUS:
     C     G    F         C     
If I can't have you, if I can't 
G    F
have you
Am                  Em
I would be a river, dried up into 
dust
F                         G
I would be imprisoned for never 
having loved
     F     C    G   C        G 
If I can't have you, I don't 
       C
wanna be me


Then I would be the same man you 
F               C
scraped off the ground
                    F          
I'd have to go back being, that 
                 C
broken soul you found
                      F           
Those days are in the darkness, I 
C                G
buried them with hardness

And I'd have to dig those demons out


     C                          
Your life is like an anchor that 
 F             C
puts me in my place
No, you won't let me sink, when I'm 
F             C
off losing my way
Thank God for your virtue and the 
F              C
wisdom in your eye
Continúa después del anuncio
       G
'Cause somehow you get through, on 
all that crazy in my mind


CHORUS:
     C     G    F         C     
If I can't have you, if I can't 
G    F
have you
Am                  Em
I would be a river, dried up into 
dust
F                         G
I would be imprisoned for never 
having loved
     F     C    G   C        G 
If I can't have you, I don't 
       F  C  G
wanna be me

I don't wanna be...


Dm         F           C   
Why did it take you so long to 
     G
finally see
     Dm       F             C    
That we had a love that you don't
          G
 find easily?
Dm           F             Am   
You broke my heart and the price
            G
 to pay for that
          Dm               F      
Is you'll have to live the misery 
   Am              G    F  C  G
of losing what you had_______
     F     C    G   C  G  F
If I can't have you_____

       Bm         G        D
Me, my words have come too late
      Bm     G           D
I've already turned that page
          G
Don't you look at me that way
              Esus4
'Cause you'll throw me back
                      D
And that's the part I hate
          Bm        G       D
I'll stay trapped inside my hell
              Bm          G     D
Where it's so hot that my walls melt
      Bm                A
I can hear a promise in every lie
                     D
You said you'd never tell


         Bm   G        D
If I had only told the truth
            Bm    G         D
Oh, I could never trust you to


          A
You'll survive
           A   G   C  G
No, I will die_____
     D     A    G         D     
If I can't have you, if I can't 
A    G
have you
         D                      A
Then I'm sorry for the things I cost
 you in the end
   G                       A
My punishment is more than any man 
can stand
                 D   A  G
I need you in my life
            D  A  G
I can't let go
                              D    
Why don't you stay with me, 
  A  G
tonight?
  G     D    A  G
I feel alone
                 D      A  G
Turn off all the lights
G       D     A  G
Take me home


CHORUS:
     D     A    G         D     
If I can't have you, if I can't 
A    G
have you
     Bm                  F#m
Then I would be a river, dried up 
into dust
G                         A
I would be imprisoned for never 
having loved
     D     A    G                
If I can't have you, I don't 
     D  A  G
wanna be me_____
