Capo +5

[Intro]
G Gsus4 (4x)

[Verse]
G          Gsus4  G          Gsus4   Cmaj7
   What if we    stop having a      ball?
G          Gsus4  G               Gsus4  Cmaj7
   What if the   paint chips from the   wall?
Em                                     A7sus4
   What if there's always cups in the sink?
B7                       C         G Gsus4  G Gsus4
What if I'm not what you think I am?


G          Gsus4  G           Gsus4  Cmaj7
   What if I     fall further than  you?
G          Gsus4  G             Gsus4  Cmaj7
   What if you   dream of somebody    new?
Em                          A7sus4
   What if I never let you win,  
    B7                        C
And chase you with a rolling pin?
                 G Gsus4 G 
Well, what if I do?

[Chorus]
 Cmaj7 Dsus4  G     Dsus4/F#
I am  giving up on making passes and
 Cmaj7 Dsus4  G          G7
I am  giving up on half empty glasses and
 Cmaj7 Dsus4  Em    A7sus4
I am  giving up on greener grasses
Cmaj7 D       G Gsus4 G Gsus4
 I am giving up

G Gsus4 G Gsus4

[Verse]
G          Gsus4 G             Gsus4  Cmaj7 
   What if our  baby comes in after   nine?
G          Gsus4 G         Gsus4   Cmaj7 
   What it your eyes close before  mine?
Em                              A7sus4
   What if you lose yourself sometimes?
     B7                 C                   G  G4 G
Then I'll be the one to find you safe in my heart

[Chorus]
 Cmaj7 Dsus4  G     Dsus4/F#
I am  giving up on making passes and
 Cmaj7 Dsus4  G          G7
I am  giving up on half empty glasses and
 Cmaj7 Dsus4  Em    A7sus4
I am  giving up on greener grasses
Cmaj7 D
 I am giving
       Cmaj7 Dsus4  G        Dsus4/F#
Cause I am  giving up (I am  giving up)
       Cmaj7 Dsus4  G        G7
Cause I am  giving up (I am  giving up)
    Cmaj7   D      Em     A7sus4
And I    am giving up on greener grasses
Cmaj7 D       Em     A7
 I am giving up for you
         Cmaj7 D       Em     A7
Oh, oh, I am  giving up for you
         Cmaj7 D       G  Gsus4 G Gsus4 G
Oh, oh, I am  giving up
