If I Could Stand by Jack Eddy
If I Could Stand
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo
[Verse 1]
Em G
Steady your hands, bandage your wounds.
Em G
You are just a man; its all you can do
Em G
The stone in your side has made its way deep.
Em G
Cutting too narrow bone as you sleep
[Chorus]
C Em G
If I could stand, I would. If only I could hold it.
C Em G
To treat you like I should, I'd do it in a moment
C Em
I would take the fall; I would catch the bullet.
C Em G
If I could stand, I would. If only I could hold it.
[Verse 2]
Em G
I would stretch my arms straight up to the moon.
Em G
I wasn't sure what it would do.
Em G
You know I'm patient, but I wait too long.
Em G
The perfect instinct for you to latch on
[Chrous]
C Em G
If I could stand, I would. If only I could hold it.
C Em G
To treat you like I should, I'd do it in a moment
C Em G
I would take the fall; I would catch the bullet.
C Em G
If I could stand, I would. If only I could hold it.
[Bridge]
C Em
They say we should run for ourselves.
G D
But sometimes, I won't walk away without helping her.
C Em
They say time is done, couldn’t sleep
G D
Couldn't leave you out
Em C G D
I refuse to think that their apathy translates to a perfect device.
Em C
Leave me when I speak, although it may seem bleak.
G D
I want to help you get by.
[Chorus]
C Em G
If I could stand, I would. If only I could hold it.
C Em G
To treat you like I should, I'd do it in a moment
C Em G
I would take the fall; I would catch the bullet.
C Em G
If I could stand, I would. If only I could hold it.
