Intro: C Dm C F / C Bb F

C                 Dm            C            F
Driving home from work another day from 9 to 5 another
C                Bb              F
Traffic jam will soon be killing me
    C               Dm
The telephone keeps ringing wild while
  C                F
I try to find some peace and silence
C         Bb                 F
I imagine what my life could be

C   Dm C            F
Why do I don't open up my mouth and
D
Tell them what I fell inside
F
It's time to free my mind

C            Dm             C
   What if I run, What if I hide
          F                  C
What if I leave this world behind
        Bb              F
Before another day goes by
What if I?
C            Dm                   C
   What if I think, what would I choose
             F                C
If there is nothing left to lose
                 Bb                F
This life's too short to waste my time
until the day I die.

  C                Dm
I tell myself I'm strong enough
     C                F
And tough enough to bear this cross
C              Bb                 F
Hoping that by hurting back won't break
       C               Dm
But as soon as I start thinking about
    C                  F
The sense of life I'm sure it's not my
C          Bb           F
Destiny to make my body ache

C   Dm C                  F
Why do I don't break this chains that bind me
    D
and do just what I need to
         F
They can tell that I'm a fool

C            Dm             C
   What if I run, What if I hide
          F                  C
What if I leave this world behind
        Bb              F
Before another day goes by
What if I?
C            Dm                   C
   What if I think, what would I choose
             F                C
If there is nothing left to lose
                 Bb                F
This life's too short to waste my time
until the day I die.
