[Verse]

 Em                         G6
For all the hours here that move too slow

                 C
There's all this letting go, that don't pass

Em                        G6
If all this love is real, how will we know?

         C
If we're only scared of losing it, how will it last?

[Chorus]

Dadd4     Em                 C  G
If I am a stranger now to you

       C      G          C      Dadd4
I will always be, I will always be

Dadd4             Em                  C G
Stronger now then me, stronger then you

              C      G
Our love will always be

          C      Dadd4                          C
And if we let it go, I will try to be there for you

If I can, what if I can't? G Em7 Cadd9 G G Em7 Cadd9 [Verse]

Em                      G
Today is yesterday when you don't know

       C
How to rebuild the walls that someone has knocked down

Em                     G
To tell the truth it's hard enough about a lover

                C
Who you want to hide your darkness from

So they won't let you down [Chorus]

D         Em              C  G
If I am a stranger now to you

       C      G          C      D
I will always be, I will always be

D                 Em                C  G
Stronger now then me, stronger then you

              C      G
Our love will always be

          C           Dadd4                          C
And if we let it go, I will try to be there for you

                            Dadd4
I will try and be there for you

If I can, what if I can't? G Em7 Cadd9 G G Em7 Cadd9 G Em7 Cadd9 G G Em7 Cadd9

Stronger now then me, stronger then you

              C      G
Our love will always be

          C      Dadd4                          C
And if we let it go, I will try to be there for you

                            Dadd4
I will try and be there for you

                    Em
If I can, what if I can't?
