C                          Fm7   
We've been friends  for a long long time 
C                         Fm7 
You tell me your secrets  and I'll tell you mine	 
Em 
She's left you all alone 
        Am 
And you feel like no one cares 
Dm 
But I have  never failed you  
Gsus             G 
I've always been there 
                 C 
You tell your   story 
            Fm7 
It sounds a bit like mine 
         C 
It's the same  old situation 
    Fm7  
It happens every time 
Em                  Am 
Can't we see it oh  maybe you and me 
    Dm 
Is what's meant to be 
       Gsus   G 
Do we disagree 
          F                  G            C 
What if I told you what if I said that I love you 
              F                   G 
How would you feel what would you think 
              Em  Am 
What would we do 
       F                   G     C           C/B        Am 
Do we dare to  cross that line between your heart and mine 
           Dm                      Gsus                  G 
Or would I lose a friend or find a love that would never end 
           C    Fm 
What if I said 
C                    Fm7 
She doesn't love you oh  it's' plain to see 
C                               Fm7 
I can read between the lines of what you're telling me 
Em                            Am 
He doesn't hold you the way a woman  should be held 
    Dm                             Gsus        G 
How long can I go on keeping these feelings to myself 
          F                  G            C 
What if I told you what if I said that I love you 
              F                   G 
How would you feel what would you think 
              Em  Am 
What would we do 
       F                   G     C           C/B        Am 
Do we dare to  cross that line between your heart and mine 
           Dm                      Gsus                  G 
Or would I lose a friend or find a love that would never end 
           C     
What if I said 
   F                  G             C 
Oh we've both had our share of lonliness  
F                    G             C 
So whose to say that we can't have a little happiness 
         F             G 
And if I found that in you 
         C       C/B         Am 
It would make my dreams come true 
              Dm 
Or would you walk away 
            Gsus    G 
Hear what I have to say 
          F                  G            C 
What if I told you what if I said that I love you 
              F                   G 
How would you feel what would you think 
              Em  Am 
What would we do 
 
SOLO 
 
      F                  G       C         C/B       Am 
Do we dare to cross that line between your heart and mine 
Dm                    G    
I've always wondered from the day we met 
C                                Fm             C 
What If I said  what if I said        what if I said
