Sara Bareilles - If I Can't Have You (Official Audio) chords
Start Jamming...
[Bb] Tell me [Eb] that you're [Bb] leaving, you say the [Gm] time will slow the bleeding
Oh, [Bb] this heart [Eb] that I placed into your hands, I held it out [Cm] to you
Now you give it [F] back, what am I supposed to [Bb] do?
Oh, I had [Cm] a [Bb] feeling this day [F] would [Gm] come and leave me reeling
I [Bb] just want to [Eb] run back in your arms again
But they're no longer [Cm] there to hold me safe [F] inside, to hold me anywhere
[Bb] [Cm] If I can't [Gm] [Dm] have you, [Eb] then I have to [Bb] [Eb] stay [Bb] together
Though [Cm] I try
[Gm] [Dm] to do [Eb]
my [Bb] best to [Cm] recall
[F] That I'm thankful that I held you [Bb] at all
[Cm] [Bb]
I miss you [A] every [Bb] morning, and in the evening [Gm] rain
Tonight it's pouring, and I'm [Bb] alone [Cm] again
I count the seconds [Eb] between the [Cm] thoughts of you
I'm getting better, [F] baby, I'm almost up to [Bb] two
Oh, you [Eb] had your [Bb] reasons, and I [Gm] know
Some folks are seasons, they got to come [Eb] and go
But I'm still tender, I miss the [Cm] summertime
When I could feel your [F] love, and I could [Bb] still feel mine
[Cm] If I [Gm] can't [Dm] have you, [Eb] then I have to find a way [Bb] to get through
[Cm] Oh, I [Gm] don't [Dm] want to
[Am] I'm [Eb]
[Bb] blessed [Cm] to recall [F] that I'm thankful that I held [Ab] you
You gave me [Cm] everything that I will need to [Eb] walk this [Bb] long road
You [Ab] gave me a sense of [Cm] pride that I will carry [F] with me all the way back
[C] home
[Dm] If I [Am] can't [Em] have you, [F] then I have [C] to stay together
[Dm] Though I try
[A] [Em] to do my [F]
[C] best [Dm] to recall
[G] That I'm thankful that I held [C] you at [Dm] [C] all
I'm [Am] thankful that I held you
[Dm] [Am]
I'm thankful [C] that I held you
[Dm] [C]
[Am] [G] [Am] I'm
[Dm] thankful [C] that I [G] held you
I'm thankful that I held you
Held [Dm] you, [C] held you
I'm [G] thankful [Am] that I held you
[Dm] [Am]
[C] I'm thankful that I held you
[G] [C] I'm [Dm] [G] thankful [Am] that I held you
[Dm] [Am]
[D] [C] Thankful as hell
[B]
