If I Were You
Kyla
Intro: Cm-Fm-Bb-
Cm Ab Bb Fm
I look in the mirror, with you in my arms
Cm Ab
And I see a reflection
Bb G7 Cm
Of a smile that says you believe in love
Ab Bb
And just for a moment, I drifted away
Fm
But I couldn't stay 'cause
C#
A hint of love, a bit of fear
C
I'm tryin' to say
Chorus
Fm Bb
If I were you, I wouldn't be here
EbM7 AbM7
If I were you I would stay right where you are
Ddim7 G7
I wouldn't come near this broken heart
Cm C7
Just turn around and leave here
Fm Bb
And find someone who won't hurt you
EbM7 AbM7
Make sure that she still believes in love
Ddim7 G7
'Cause I think my heart has given up
Cm
If I were you, I wouldn't be here
Ooh yeah
Cm Ab
I'm tryin' to protect you
Bb Fm
From the lies that your heart tells
Cm Ab
Even though it says that you love me
Bb G7 Cm
All I see is pain and misery
Ab
Seasons may change
Bb Fm
But I can't forget the days of old
C#
My heart ached when you walked away
C
I said I'd never love again
(Repeat Chorus except last line)
Bb Ab
The days go by
Eb Cm
And I feel that you could make me happy
Bb Ab
Time goes on
Eb Ab
And I feel that love is at my door
Eb/G Eb
And though I tell myself that you're the one

Who said those words before

Though it hurts too much

I can't trust in love

Again, again
