A         G       A      C  D A        G       A   C D
Who's to say that I'm unhappy cause I rarely smile?
A         G        A        C  D   A        G      A  C D
Sitting, hoping, dreaming, waiting for my ship to sail
D         C        D         C     D        C        D   C
Who's to say this time I've wasted someday won't get used?
A     G       A        C D
Maybe if you come around
A              G      A   C
I'll start to get enthused

          D  C
Who's to say?
          A G A C D
Who's to say?

Who's to say that I'm obsessed with everything you do
Just because it seems my schedule seems to shadow you
Who's to say that tired cliche, there's more fish in the sea?
I don't mind treading water
cause you're the one for me

Chorus:
D                A            G                 A
You say that by now I should know you'll never love me
      D                 A             F         G     A
But who's to say that what has never been will never be?
          F         G     A
What has been will never be

Who's to say in time I wouldn't learn how to relax?
You'd forget about my clammy hands and my nervous laugh
Who's to say the way you look at him is truly love?
Maybe they should realize
I fit you like a glove

Chorus
