[Intro 1]
[Em]

[Verse 1]
[Em]What do you [G]do when
[D]they turn on [Em]the light?
You guard your [G]heart,
so [D]they steal [G]your sight
You reach [D]out in blindness, [Em]touch the [D]alone
His [Em]icicle fin[G]gers chill [D]you to the [Em]bone
[E]

[Verse 2]
[Am]What do you [C]do when [G]the cat
gets [Am]ya tongue?
No way [C]to tell it's [G]all going [C]wrong
Mouth out [G]the words on
[A]the tele[G]phone
[Am]Nobody an[C]swers,
[G]nobody's [A]home...

[Verse 3]
What's [D]done has been [A]done,
and [C#m]I won't be t[E]he one[B]
Who des[D]pairs in the wheelchair,
[A]resigned to "If onl[B]y"
No, [D]I'll stand up again and I'll [A]run
I'll [C#m]jump up till I[E] touch th[B]e sun
Because I [D]won't be the one to be [A]bound
By the sound of [B]"If only,

[Verse 4]
if only, if only"
[Em]Well, I reach out in [G]blindness now,
but [D]what do [Em]I care?
I'll walk into [G]walls and [D]I'll stumble
down[G]stairs
I'll laugh like a fish[D]wife,
[Em]I'll cry like a [D]clown
[Em]Up is the on[G]ly way t[D]o go
when [E]you're down

[Verse 5]
[E]
When I reach [Am]a mountai[C]n top,
[G]then I start to [Am]climb
I'll walk on the wa[C]ter,
I'll turn [G]water to [C]wine
Hope is the [G]one thing [Am]we got on [G]our side
[Am]Hope can [C]be salvaged when
[G]all else [A]has died

[Verse 6]
What's [D]done has been [A]done,
and [C#m]I won't be t[E]he one[B]
Who des[D]pairs in the wheelchair,
[A]resigned to "If onl[B]y"
No, [D]I'll stand up again and I'll [A]run
[C#m]I'll jump up till [E]I touch t[B]he sun
Because I [D]won't be the one to be [A]bound
By the sound of [B]"If only, if only, if only"

[Verse 7]
What's [D]done has been [A]done,
and [C#m]I won't be t[E]he one[B]
Who des[D]pairs in the wheelchair,
[A]resigned to "If onl[B]y"
No, [D]I'll stand up again and I'll [A]run
[C#m]I'll jump up till [E]I touch t[B]he sun
Because I [D]won't be the one to be [A]bound
