CAPO: 3rd Fret 
  
  
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
