If That’s What It Takes

D                      A                              Hm 
You?re the bravest of hearts, you?re the strongest of souls 
A D                       A                             Hm 
  You?re my light in the dark, you?re the place I call home 
G                    Fm# 
You can say it?s all right 
                          Em 
 but I know that you?re breaking up inside 
   G 
I see it in your eyes 
D                  A                 Hm 
Even you face the night afraid and alone 
G                A 
That?s why I?ll be there 
 
E                    H                       Fm# 
When the storm rises up, when the shadows descend 
                  A            H          E 
Every beat of my heart, every day without end 
                H                         Fm# 
Every second I live that?s the promise I make 
                        A         H             C 
Baby, that?s what I?ll give, if that?s what it takes

If that?s what it takes 
 
D                   A                           Hm 
You can sleep in my arms, you don?t have to explain 
A D                        A                     Hm 
 When your heart?s crying out, baby, whisper my name 
G                            Fm# 
?Cause I?ve reached out for you 
                       Em 
 when the thunder is crashing up above 
        G 
You?ve given me your love 
D                         A                           Hm 
When your smile like the sun that shines through the pain

That?s why I?ll be there

Every beat of my heart, every day without end 
                     H                         Fm# 
I will stand like a rock, I will bend till I break 
                         A         H             E 
Till there?s no more to give, if that?s what it takes 
                   H                           Fm# 
I will risk everything, I will fight, I will bleed 
                    A         H              E 
I will lay down my life, if that?s what you need

Every second I live, that?s the promise I make

G                         D                               Am 
Through the wind and the rain, through the smoke and the fire 
                    C             D           G 
When the fear rises up, when the wave?s ever higher 
                    D                  Am 
I will lay down my heart, my body, my soul 
                    C         D        G 
I will hold on all night and never let go 
                D                         Am 
Every second I live, that?s the promise I make

Baby, that?s what I?ll give, if that?s what it takes

If that?s what it takes 
 Am C D G
