Hey guys, my sister likes this song and I'm looking for easy songs to play, so
I ear-transcribed this and it's pretty nice and easy! (Still can't play the
chords fast enough myself, but oh well...) I noticed that there are some other
chords for this song out there but I think this version sounds a bit more like
the recorded version because it uses a capo, though it's probably still not
perfect.

UPDATED: One commenter asked for the chords for the last chorus, so here's my
best guess!

IMPORTANT: Use a capo!
Capo 5th fret

Chords: EADGBe
G 320003
Cmaj7 032003 (I guess you could mute the E string too but I don't)
Em7 022033
Dsus xx0233
B7 x21202
C x32010
G7 323003
A7 x02223
D xx0232
G/F# 220003
G* 330003

G Cmaj7
What if we stop having a ball?
G Cmaj7
What if the paint chips from the wall?
Em7 Dsus
What if there's always cups in the sink?
B7 C G
What if I'm not what you think I am?

G Cmaj7
What if I fall further than you?
G Cmaj7
What if you dream of somebody new?
Em7 Dsus B7 C
What if I never let you win, chase you with a rolling pin?
G
Well what if I do?

Cmaj7 Dsus G G7
I am giving up on making passes and
Cmaj7 Dsus G G7
I am giving up on half empty glasses and
Cmaj7 Dsus Em7 A7
I am giving up on greener grasses
Cmaj7 D G
I am giving up

What if our baby comes home after nine?
What it your eyes close before mine?
What if you lose yourself sometimes? Then I'll be the one to find you
Safe in my heart


C Dsus G G/F#
I am giving up on making passes and
C Dsus G G7
I am giving up on half empty glasses and
C Dsus Em7 A7
I am giving up on greener grasses
C D
I am giving up
C D
I am giving up
G G/F#
I am giving up
C D
I am giving up
G G7
I am giving up
C D Em7 A7
I am giving up on greener grasses
C D Em7 A7
I am giving up for you
C D Em7 A7
I am giving up for you
C D G (G* G)
I am giving up
