If You Only Knew

C    F    G  F  C
            F
So here you are again
G              C
Standing at my door
              F
You know I'll understand
      G
Well, that's what friends are for
    F
So, what's he done this time, what did he say
            C
To make you so darn mad that you're running away
F                                   G
Now you say you want to be like me
Independent and free

    C
But if you only knew
       F
What a single girl goes through
                              G
The long working days and the lonely nights
    F              C
The empty, "I Love You's"
Oh, if you only knew
          F
What it's like to be alone
You'd put your anger down
      G                 C       D
Turn around and go back home
                **Key Change - Up 2 Semitones**
                    G
Well, my life looks good to you
    A            D
I'm always in control
          G
No one to answer to
    A
But no one there to hold
         G
You see, in my eyes you are the lucky one
     D
With loving arms that you can lean upon
    G                                 A
And I'd give anything I could to save
What you're throwing away

       D
'Cause if you only knew
       G
What a single girl goes through
                              A
The long working days and the lonely nights
    G              D
The empty, "I Love You's"
Oh, if you only knew
          G
What it's like to be alone
You'd put your anger down
      A                 D       A
Turn around and go back home

I know it's hard to face
               G            D     G
But love ain't perfect everyday
But I know a hundred girls
         A
Who would gladly take your place

    D
So, if you only knew
       G
What a single girl goes through
                              A
The long working days and the lonely nights
    G              D
The empty, "I Love You's"
Oh, if you only knew
          G
What it's like to be alone
You'd put your anger down
      A                 D
Turn around and go back home
               G
You'd put your anger down
      A                 D
Turn around and go back home
