If I Were To Write The Song

Tuning: Standard
(if you want it higher click the transpose arrow up on the left side bar)

I did not include the song after with the piano.

[Intro]: 

C#-F#-A-B

[Verse]:
         C#
Ring the verse, let it in, said softly begin
      B    
If it feels like the first time, don't let it end 
         F#                   A                    B  
Cause it wanders by like something that could have been 
   C#                                  B
If I were to write the song that could penetrate your ears
         F#
Would it calm your trembling soul
         A               B
Would it ease your every fear


Pre-Chorus to Chorus:
          Ebm                                    F#
Can we go back to the place where we all used to see through 
                        Ebm                               A
Everything blinding us, now you don't understand anything anymore 
     B       C#-F#-A-B    C#-F#-A-B
And you shiver at the sight...
       C#         F#              A       B       C#-F#-A-B
You're afraid to show that you're only so human tonight


[Verse]:
          C#
Could one song solve all our problems
         B
Could it have the strength to heal
            F# 
Or would it cripple and destroy
          A           B
And leave nothing unrevealed
C#     
Might it uproot every lie
    B
And force us all to cower
F#
Beneath its tremendous weight
       A               B 
In the wake of all its power


Pre-Chorus to Chorus:
          Ebm                                    F#
Can we go back to the place where we all used to see through 
                        Ebm                               A
Everything blinding us, now you don't understand anything anymore 
         B            C#-F#-A-B    C#-F#-A-B
And you shiver at the sight...
       C#         F#              A       B       C#-F#-A-B
You're afraid to show that you're only so human tonight

C#-F#-A-B (4x)

[Solo]: 

C# B F# A-B (2x)

C#
Oh, did you know, did you know
Did you know better
B
Don't you know, don't you know
Don't you know better
F#
Don't you know, don't you know
Don't you know better
A
Don't you know that

     B            C#-F#-A-B    C#-F#-A-B
you shiver at the sight...
       C#         F#              A       B       C#-F#-A-B
You're afraid to show that you're only so human tonight

   C#         F#        A   B
If I were to write the song
           C#       F#         A   B
That could somehow change the world
         C#        F#
Would it be a calm surrender
     A             B
Or a fight to the death?
         C#                F#
Would it give something to live for
         A              B
Would we give our final breath?
         C#           F#
Would it be a roaring opera
        A                B
Or as sweet as a child's kiss?
         C#                 F#
Would it sound like all the others
            A          B 
Or would it sound something like this
