If I Told You Now- Jason Robert Brown
Tabbed by Robin Young
A7/D D
If I told you now
Adim Bm
That I didn�t have the answers
Bm/A Gsus2 D/F
That I didn�t know the reasons
B7(b9) Em
That I didn�t hold the key
Em/D A7/C A7 D/F
If I told you now
Adim/C Adim Bm Bm/A
That I couldn�t say for certain
G2 D/F
That I wouldn�t break my promise
E7 A7 Dsus D Dsus D
Could you bear to look at me?
Dsus A7/D D
If I told you now
Adim/C Adim7 Bm
That in spite of my persistence
G2 D/F
And my confident demeanor
B7(b9) Em Em7/D
I am more and more in doubt
A7/C A7 D/F
If I told you now
D Adim Bm
Would you smile with understanding
G2 D/F
Would you burn with disappointment
E7 A7 Dsus D
Or would you turn and turn me out?
Bm B A
If I told you now
G2 D/F
I suspect you still might say
G11 D2/F
We�ve gone too far to change
Em7 D2/F
Or push away the tide
E7 D/E
Would you close us down
Edim7 E7
Or would I get extra points
D/A
Because I tried?
Gsus2/A
If I tried
A/C A7 D/F D
If I told you now
Adim Bm
And I�m not about to tell you
G2 D/F
But in case I chose to mention
D/E Em9 Em6/F
Things I know you won�t allow
F7 G Em7/G D/A
Would it hurt less later
E7 A7sus Dsus D Dsus D
If I told you now?
Adim/D � D � Adim/D � D
Adim/C Bm Bm/A
If I told you now
G2 Dsus2/F
That we�re never really safe
G11 D2/F
From all the fires we set
Em7 D2/F
Or debts we had to pay
Bb7/F E7 D/E
Would you hold me now
Edim7 E7
So at least for this, for here
D/A
I know you�d stay
Am7
If you�d stay
A7/C D2
If I told you now
Adim/C Bm
It would be for your protection
Gsus2 D/F
�Cause I�m sure I�ll disappoint you
D/E Em9 Em6/F F7
Though I can�t imagine how
G Gdim D/A
Does it make me better
G7/A F7/A B B7
If I told you now?
Em7 E7/G D/A
Would you make me better
E7 A7 Dsus Dsus2 D
If I told you now?
