  			What Might Have Been 
By Clifford D. Cory 
Capo II 

Cadd9          Dadd9 
Is that Your bridge I smell burning? 
Cadd9          Dadd9 
Is that Your wall going up? 
Cadd9          Dadd9 
Is that your world that's stopped turning? 
C                              A 
Is this mess spilt from your cup? 

I thought you had all the answers 
To the questions that won't leave my mind. 
Like a million little cancers 
All the emotions entwined 

Chorus 
Bm                             G 
And it just goes to show my confusion 
Bm                          G 
About all this pain from within 
Bm                  G 
Because of your delusion 
C                      A 
About what might have been. 

I thought we could talk it over 
Not a word comes out of you mouth 
Your shoulder just keeps getting colder 
And your heart keeps moving south 

Once it is out in the open 
Things are never quite the same 
Once the words have been spoken 
You can never take back the pain 

Chorus X2
