(G)(If you go) I'll sit here,
trying not to see how lonely life will be (D)without you

(If you go) I'll wait here for the phone to ring,
pretending I don't care (G)about you

(If you go) You'll think I didn't she'd a tear while
deep down here my heart is (D)dying

(If you go) I'll let you walk right out the door and
then I'm sure that I'll start (G)crying

If you (C)go, my happiness (Cm)will go with you
My life, my love, what will (G)I do?
I can go on without (D)love,and all my love goes with (G)you

If you (C)go, I'll take your (Cm)picture from the wall
And tell my friends that it was (G)all, a little game
But just the (D)same, I'll still be sad if you (C)go (G)

(G)(If you go) I'll meet our friends,
I'll take a drink and then I'll start to think (D)about you

(If you go) You'll turn my blue skies into grey for
that's the way it seems (G)without you

(If you go) There'll be no sun up in the sky as long as I am left in (D)sorrow
(If you go) I've given all that 1 can give, how will I live until to(G)morrow

If you (C)go, I want the (Cm)sweeps, I'll play the game
But it will never be the (G)same
I'm addicted to (D)you
What will I do if you (G)go?

If you (C)go, I'll pull the (Cm)blinds, I'll close the door
So that our friends just (G)won't know. I'm broken up, I will (D)die
My race is run, if you (C)go (G)

(G)Lailailailai(D)lailialai(C)lailailail(G)
(G)Lailailailai(D)lailialai(C)lailailail(G)

Great first song
Focus on clean chords — let every string ring. Speed comes by itself once the shapes are right.
