            Dmaj7
If you were here
            Em7
We'd have a ball
              Dmaj7         A7
I'd take your hand and we'd fall
           F#7              E7
But in the wake of what you left
          Gmaj7   A
I will forever remain

            Dmaj7
If you were here
               Em7
I'd touch your skin
         D     A7
I'd bury everything
              F#7                 E7
I'd kiss your forehead and make a wish
            G         A
And we'd be all embracing

           F#m7           G
I'd run a bath for us to sit in
            F#m7                      G
Light some candles, your face would flicker in
        Gmaj7          Dmaj7              Em7
And I'd crumble at the thought of what we could be
        Gmaj7          F#m7           Em7      A7
And I'd crumble at the beauty of what might be
