What if
De akkoorden in dit nummer
What If C G Em C G D Here I stand alone with this weight upon my heart. And it will not go away. C G Em C In my head I keep on looking back right back to the start Em D C wondering what it was that made you change. Am Em C Well I tried, but I had to draw the line. Am G C D And still this question keeps on spinning in my mind. G D C What if I had never let you go? G D C Would you be the man I used to know? Em D G C If I'd stayed, if you'd tried, if we could only turn the time. Am D G C But I guess we'll never know. C G Em C Many roads to take, some to joy some to heartache. G D Anyone can lose the way. C G And if I said that we could turn it back, Em C right back to the start. G D G Would you take the chance and make the change? Am Em C Do you think how it would have been sometimes? Am G C D Do you pray that I'd never left your side? G D C What if I had never let you go? G D C Would you be the man I used to know? Em D G C If I'd stayed, if you'd tried, if we could only turn the time. Am D G---- C G C But I guess we'll never know. G C If only we could turn the hands of time. G C If I could take it back would you still be mine? Am Em C 'Cause I tried, but I had to draw the line. Am G C And still this question keeps on spinning in my mind.

How to practise this song
- 1
Put your capo on fret 1
Clamp the capo on before you start — otherwise the shapes won't sound like the original.
- 2
Practise the barre chord Bbm
Bbm is a barre chord. Lay your index finger flat across all strings and press firmly; practise it on its own until every string rings clearly before you use it in the song.
Open - 3
Practise the change: Bbm ↔ Am
Play each chord for 4 beats, then 2, then 1 — with the metronome at 60-70 bpm. Only push the tempo once the change is clean and on time.

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