INTRO: Am C G    (2x)
 
             Am    C
If god could talk
                  G
Would he tell you to come back to me?
             Am    C
If god could talk
                  G
Would he tell you it's alright, just leave
               Am              F
And don't look back at all the memories
    G                  Em               F
The best of times, the mess you made of me
     Am         G
Walk on, if you think it's gonna make you strong
 
 
CHORUS:
N.C.          Dm   F
Why don't you run away
    C               G
And find yourself a life
          Dm       F
Go on and turn the page
  Am               G
Before your lonely world collides
C               Dm                C
What's it gonna take to break the silence
            F            G
That's been tearing you apart?
 
 
             Am    C
If god could talk
                  G
Would he part the oceans straight to you
               Am    C
Make mountains move
                G
Crumble at your feet to get you through
        Am           F
Another day, another night alone
G              Em             F
Stepping out into the great unknown
  Am          G
Tonight, even god knows, baby, that ain't right
 
 
CHORUS:
              Dm   F
Why don't you run away
    C               G
And find yourself a life
          Dm       F
Go on and turn the page
  Am               G
Before your lonely world collides
C               Dm                C
What's it gonna take to break the silence
            F            G
That's been tearing you apart?
                  Am
If only god could talk
 
 
        Dm           Em
Did you swear to yourself
       F          G
On the day it was over
           Am          Bm
That you'd never turn around
        C             Dm     Am    F  C  G
And get locked up in another cage?
 
 
        Dm           Em
Did you tear all the pictures
      F             G
Of us living life together
        Am           Bm
Did you burn all the memories
        C          Dm     Am    F  C  G
That we made, in a fit of rage?
 
 
CHORUS:
              Dm  F
Why don't you run away
    C               G
And find yourself a life
          Dm       F
Go on and turn the page
  Am               G
Before your lonely world collides
C                       Dm        C
What's it gonna take to break the silence
            F            G
That's been tearing you apart?
                  Am F  C
If only god could talk
   G              Am            F         C
If only god could talk (if only god could talk )
   G              Am            F         C
If only god could talk (if only god could talk )
   G              Am 
If only god could talk
 
 
OUTRO:
G Dm            F              G         C
