Intro: D  A  G  D 

         D 
What if birds, 
                      A 
fell in love like we do? 
                     G 
the skies would be empty, 
                    D 
made of invisible winds. 

          D 
What if fish, 
                   A 
found they had emotions? 
                    G 
and suddenly our oceans, 
                          D 
would become blinded by things. 

          G 
Theres something to be said, 
      D 
for getting into bed, 
        A 
and covering your head, 
       D             A              G 
and waiing for whatever comes your way, 

but in the end, 
       D 
when you've lost all your friends, 
        A 
they're never coming back. 

            D 
And if I tried, 
                     A 
to tell you I loved you, 
                      G 
would you promise to try to, 
               D 
feel the same way? 

            D 
I know I'm not, 
                        A 
the only fish in the sea but, 
                        G 
if it were just you and me, 
                          D  A  D 
we'd take control of the sky.
