Cm       Ab         Bb        Cm
   I had friends against the war
 
    Ab                 Bb         Cm
By things they did so well yesterday
                 Ab            Bb          Cm
They lived their lives without fortune or thrill
     Ab            Bb      Cm
With nothing very much to say
 
Pre-Chorus:
 
Bb                      Ab
Always standing in the same old lines
Bb                      Ab
Moving sideways to the march of time
 
CHORUS:
 
Cm              Ab
What might have been
Bb              Cm
What might have been
 
Ab         Bb     Cm
A portrait of my life
Cm             Ab
No fool would say
Bb        Cm
You live today
Ab         Bb        Cm
Without a will to survive
 
Cornered now, what can I do
I'm trapped by what might have been
The great big 'if' that hangs around my neck
Has played its part in all my dreams
Always making the bad seem worse
Living my life reversed
 
CHORUS
 
BRIDGE:
 
Ab         Bb          Eb            Ab
I know the call that I can't seem to move
Ab               Bb        Eb
Without a little fall from grace
Ab         Bb           Eb           Ab
But now I know when I'm down in this mood
Db                           Eb
It's only me that I have to face
Bb              Eb
What might have been, yeah
Ab  Bb             Eb
   What might have been
 
Cm Ab Bb Cm Ab Bb Cm
 
What might have been
 
Cm Ab Bb Cm Ab Bb Cm
 
Bb                      Ab
Always standing in the same old lines
 
Bb                     Ab
Moving sideways to the march of time
