Lyrics
What if we stop
hav ing a ball?
What if the paint of chips from the wall?
What if there’s al ways cups in the sink?
And (E7)what if I’m not what you think
I am?
What if I fall
fur ther than you?
What if you dream of some bod y new?
What if I nev er cups let you win
and (E7)what if I’m not what you think
I am?
(E7)chase you with a roll ing (F)pin?
Well,
what if I do?
’Cause I, I
am g iv
ing up
or mak ing pass es.
And I, I
am g iv
ing up
on half emp ty glass es.
And I, I
am g iv
ing up
on green er grass es.
I
am (G)giv ing up.
What if our ba by comes in af ter nine?
What if your eyes
close be fore
mine?
What if you lose your self some times?
Then (E7)I’ll be the one to find
you safe
in my heart.
’Cause I, (G)giv ing, ’cause I, I am g iv ing up, (I, I am g iv ing ’cause I, up.
I am g iv ing up.
I, I am g iv ing… And I I
am am giv
ing up
on green er grass es.
I
am (G)giv ing up
for you.
Oh, oh, I, I
am (G)giv ing
up
for you.
Oh, oh, I, I
am (G)giv ing up.
