Em G D Em
What do you do when they turn on the light?
Em G D G
You guard your heart, so they steal your sight
G D Em D
You reach out in blindness, touch the alone
Em G D Em E
His icicle fingers chill you to the bone
Am C G Am
What do you do when the cat gets ya tongue?
Am C G C
No way to tell it's all going wrong
C G Am G
Mouth out the words on the telephone
Am C G Am
Nobody answers, nobody's home…
[Chorus]
D A C#m B
What's done has been done, and I won't be the one
D A B
Who despairs in the wheelchair, resigned to "If only"
D A
No, I'll stand up again and I'll run
C#m E B
I'll jump up till I touch the sun
D A
Because I won't be the one to be bound
B
By the sound of "If only, if only, if only"
[Verse 2]
Em G D Em
Well, I reach out in blindness now, but what do I care?
Em G D G
I'll walk into walls and I'll stumble downstairs
G D Em D
I'll laugh like a fishwife, I'll cry like a clown
Em G D Em E
Up is the only way to go when you're down
[Verse 3]
Am C G Am
When I reach a mountain top, then I start to climb
Am C G C
I'll walk on the water, I'll turn water to wine
C G Am G
Hope is the one thing we got on our side
Am C G Am
Hope can be salvaged when all else has died
[Chorus]
D A C#m B
What's done has been done, and I won't be the one
D A B
Who despairs in the wheelchair, resigned to "If only"
D A
No, I'll stand up again and I'll run
C#m E B
I'll jump up till I touch the sun
D A
Because I won't be the one to be bound
B
By the sound of "If only, if only, if only"

What's done has been done, and I won't be the one

C#m E B
I'll jump up till I touch the sun

Because I won't be the one to be bound
