If I Could Only Fly Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]If [G]I'd[Am][F][Dm][F][C]
ever [G]listened
To [Am]all of my closest friends[F]
Who [C]knew that it was [G]over
And [Am]the party had to end
[F]If onl[C]y I'd have notic[G]ed
The sad[Am]ness in her eye[F]s
She'd [Dm]still be in my [F]arms tonight
If [C]only
If only I'd have real[G]ized
The unimport[Am]ance of being [F]cool
To [C]give a kiss, may[G]be just to say,
[Am]darling I love [F]you
If [C]only I'd said I'm sorry[G],
I'd have [Am]been a much better [F]man
You should [Dm]still be in my [F]arms tonight,
if [C]only
There's an [Am]emptiness that [C]fills my heart,
[Em]now that she's not h[C]ere
I [Am]loved her more than my [F]whole life,
[Am]something I've always [Dm]feared
[F]If [C]only, if only
I'd come [G]home at night
Instead of [Am]staying out for one more [F]drink
If [C]only I'd been uncon[G]cerned
About what the [Am]other guys may [F]think
If [C]only I'd held it [G]tight
But I [Am]guess it's too late [F]now
[Dm]Oh, how blind can [F]one man be
If [C]only
Oh, but [F]I will n[G]ot be s[C]ad
After [F]all the [G]fun we've [Am]had
You [C]live some [G]and you learn [F]some,
if [C]only

[Verse 2]
If [C]only I could con[G]vince her
If [Am]only [F]I h[C]ad [G]the[Am] nerv[F]e[C]
[G]To call her up [Am]and tell her how I feel
[F]She'd sti[Dm]ll be in my arm[F]s tonight
If [C]only
But it's [Am]only love, and [C]love ain't real
It's [Em]only a four -letter [C]word
We've spent [Am]half our
lives chasing af[F]ter it
How [Am]wonderfully [Dm]absurd, [F]if [C]only
Oh, but [F]I will n[G]ot be s[C]ad
After [F]all the [G]fun we [Am]had
You [C]live some [G]an d [F]you learn some
Oh, but I will [G]not be sad
[C]After all[F] the fun[G] that we had[Am]
You [C]live some [G]and you learn [F]some
You're you're mine, so I'm
[C]If only
