Here you sit in your high-back chair
Wonder how the view is from there
We wouldn't know, cause I like to say
[E] Up on the floor, [B] yeah, up on the floor
We feel like we could play
[E] Let's pretend that we are the same
But you will have to look much closer
[B] So then you do
[E] And I'm far too [B] tired to stay here anymore
And I don't care what you think of me
Cause I think you were wrong about [E] me
Yeah, what if you were, [B] what if you were
[E] And what if I'm a snowstorm [C#] burning
What if [A] I'm a world under [E] the heat
What if [B] I'm an ocean [C#m] far too shallow for us [A] to dig in
[E] What if [B] I'm the kind of thing [C#m] you [A] may not believe [B] in
What if I'm a siren [C#] singing you to bed [A] to sleep
[D] [Bm] [E]
I know you've gotta figure it out
Tell me what I am all about
And I just might learn a thing or two
Wonder about you, [B] maybe about you
[E] I'm the end of your telescope
I don't [B] change just to suit your vision
Cause I am bound [E] by a frame wrote [F#] around my hands
[B] Taught around my [A] hands
And you close your eyes [B] when I say I'm breaking [A] free
And put your hands [B] over both your ears
[A] Because you cannot stand [B] to believe I'm not
The [A] perfect girl you thought
[B] Well, what have I got [E] to lose
What if I'm a weeping [C#m] willow
Laughing tears [A] of all my fellow
What if [B] I'm a socialite
[C#m] Who wants to be [A] alone
[E] What if [B] I'm a toothless [C#m] leather
What if [A] I'm a seedless shepherd
[E] What if [B] I'm an angel
[C#m] Without wings to take [A] me [D] home
[Bm] [E]
[C#m] You [A] don't know me
[E] Never [B] will, never [C#] will
[A] I'm outside [E] your picture frame
[B] And the glass is breaking [C#] now
You [A] can't see [E] me
Never [B] will, never [A] [F#] will
[A]
[E] What if I'm [B] a crowded desert
[C#m] Too much pain [A] with little leisure
[E] What if I'm [B] the nicest place
[C#m] You'd never want [A] to go
[E] What if I [B] don't know who I [C#m] am
Will that keep [A] us both from trying [E] to find out
[B] And when you have, [C#m] be sure to let [A] me know
[E] What if I'm [B] a snowstorm
What if, [C#m] what if I'm a [A] river
Until they [E] leave
What if I'm [B] an ocean
Far [C#m] too shallow, much [A] too devious
[E] What if I'm [B] a kindness
[C#m] Something you may [E] not believe in
What [B] if I'm a silent dream
[C#m] Dream to make [A] you sleep
[C#m] [A] Sleep
