If Ever by Paula Fuga, Jack Johnson & Ben Harper
If Ever
Tuning: Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb
Key: D
Tuning is half step down.
The G tabbed below is similar to a G major bar chord, but you use your thumb so the B string is open.
The D/A is like a Bm7, but with an open A string.

[Verse]
G
won't you take me back
D
to where we used to play
A
hang on every word
G
hang on every moment
G
I know you're in between now
D
and I know you can't stay
A
give me one more rising sun
G
just one more setting moment
it felt so bright
D
I had to turn away
A
I turned back around
G
and the moment had been stolen
G
you make magic out of nothing
D
you make my fears go away
A
but who will make the words
G
or find the answers for them
[Chorus]

If ever if ever I could see you again

G
handmade mornings
D
and trails we walked on
A
pain that shapes us
A
like rain on rocks now
G
changing faces
D
are woven in my
A
future I see
A
don't say it out loud
G
shade from to much
D
I miss you most times
A
or the ideas of you
A
fall through my mind
G
thoughts I can't lose
D
I somtimes try to
A
hold what I can
A
If I can't hold you
[Chorus/Outro]
