  			Verse: 

N.C.      C 
She says I can't dance and I can't sing 
                   F 
And I can't play a Goddamn thing 
   C                                     G 
On this guitar,  sometimes I want to give up 

N.C     C 
Oh, and I can't write and I can't rhyme 
                    F 
And I can't tap the beat in time 
                         G 
Sometimes, I want to give up 

 
N.C           C 
But what if I could 
          G 
What if I could 
             F                  C 
Sometimes it feels like maybe I should 

What if I could 
          G 
What if I could 

Verse 
N.C    C 
So she sticks it out and she starts a band 
                       F 
And they land a gig at Houlihans 
                             G 
But most nights no one shows up 
N.C     C 
And she stays up late and she plays for free 
                            F 
But they can't compete with sports TV 
                                G 
At the bar and she wants to give up 

 
N.C           C 
But what if I could 
          G 
What if I could 
             F                  C 
Sometimes it feels like maybe I should 

What if I could 
          G 
What if I could

Verse 
N.C  C 
Now she's on stage with a five piece band 
                F 
A manager and a groupie van 
                            G 
And a girl who does her makeup 
N.C     C 
And she steps on stage and the light go wild 
                          F                                G 
But deep inside her inner child yells girl you oughta give up 
N.C    C 
Oh but standing there in the second row 
                                F 
Is that same shy smile that she used to know 
                                 G 
So she sings don't you ever give up 


N.C           C 
'Cause what if I could 
          G 
What if I could 
             F                  C 
Sometimes it feels like maybe I should 

What if I could 
          G 
What if I could 

Outro 
N.C             C 
Yeah  What if I could
