A5
We could wrestle with tomorrow
         C5
Till tomorrow's in the past
              D5
Cause i have torn apart what's beautiful
       F5           ( F5 )
To prove that nothing last
                A5
I have stayed locked behind this door
      C5
To show there's no way out
         D5
I've got lost within the space between
       F5               ( F5 )
 the question and the doubt

       Am (you can add G on the first string)
On an ordinary day
       F5
In an ordinary way
        D5
I have combed the cracks of virtue, 
        F5               ( F5 )
for a place to lay the blame
           A5
And I have hated, I have lied
        F5
Been guilty and denied
        D5
I've dismissed the ones who question me,
    F5                 ( F5 )
declaring, "I am right!"

               A5  C5
What if I'm wrong?
                 D5  F5  ( F5 )
What if I'm wrong?

I have built a wall between what I believe and what is true
I have sacrificed the love I have for power over you
I have inflicted those who disagree and walked over the weak
I have placed a gun within the mouth of those who dare to speak

On an ordinary day
In an ordinary way
I have crushed the minds of children with extraordinary shame
I have carried on this war, though no one wins an endless fight
I have claimed that God is guiding me, and killed to prove I'm right

What if I'm wrong? (4x)

      E5               A5
Is this soul worth saving at all?
E5                                 A5
Because if I lose my wings, then surely I must fall
  D5           F5         ( F5 )
And God, thank..for ..

            C5                         A5
We could wrestle with tomorrow till tomorrow's in the past
       D5      
We could tear apart what's beautiful 
     F5                 ( F5 )
to prove that nothing last
We could stay locked behind the doors to show there's no way out
We got lost within the space between the question and the doubt

                  A5
What if we're wrong?
