G             A
   I see that she's hurt you bad
  G                 A
   I think that it's really sad
  G                  A             Bm
   That she's made a cynic of you now
  G              A
   If only you'd let me try
  G                  A
   I think I could change your mind
  G              A                     Bm
   And show you what true love's all about

               Refrain
  G                  A
   I know what you're going through
              G
   Take your time 
                   A
   I'll be here for you

                Chorus
  D                      A/C#
   You say you'll never be ready for love
       Bm                Am7    D7
   You say that you have had enough
      G                 
   But what if I 
  F#m        Em               A
   What if I could love you forever
       D              A/C#
   You say you can't afford anymore
      Bm                   Am7        D7
   To have your heart broken like before
      G
   But what if I
 F#m        Em               A  
   What if I were the one you needed 
              B 
   All this time
    Em       F#m
   What If I told you
        G           A     D-A/C#-Bm-Am7-D7-
   I'd make you forever mine

  G            A
   I don't believe at all
  G                A
   You'd rather be all alone
  G                   A                   Bm
   'Cause I know just what you're looking for
  G                  A
   Someone who will stand by you
  G                A
   Whatever life takes you through
  G                 A           Bm
   And be there for you forevermore

   (Repeat Refrain)

   (Repeat Chorus except last word)

                D-A/C#-
          ... mine 

                   G
   What if there's a reason 
         A      F#m            Bm 
   That I have come into your life
          G        A        B
   Just when you needed a friend
                G              A
   You have got to open your mind
        F#m              Bm
   Maybe now there's no time
                C
   You're about to find

   All this time
    F#m      G#m
   What If I told you
        A           B     E-A pause
   I'd make you forever mine
