[Verse]
 Em                         G6 
For all the hours here that move too slow
                 C
There's all this letting go, that don't pass
Em                        G6
If all this love is real, how will we know?
         C
If we're only scared of losing it, how will it last?


[Chorus]
Dadd4     Em                 C  G
If I am a stranger now to you
       C      G          C      Dadd4
I will always be, I will always be
Dadd4             Em                  C G
Stronger now then me, stronger then you
              C      G
Our love will always be
          C      Dadd4                          C
And if we let it go, I will try to be there for you

If I can, what if I can't?

[Verse]
Today is yesterday when you don't know
How to rebuild the walls that someone has knocked down
To tell the truth it's hard enough about a lover
Who you want to hide your darkness from
So they won't let you down

[Chorus]
If I am a stranger now to you
I will always be, I will always be
Stronger now then me, stronger then you
Our love will always be
                     Dadd4                          C
And if we let it go, I will try to be there for you
                            Dadd4
I will try and be there for you

If I can, what if I can't?

I will try to be there for you
I will try to be there for you
