Girl, and if you're the last [Eb]thing that's keeping this heart from coming completely apart, the[Ab]n what '
And if in the [Bb]warmth and rhythm of your skin I lost everything I could win, the[Ab]n what '
Then what is it I'[Eb]ve got '
/ Chorus, both guitars play the intro twice /
[Eb]I used to think that I, I used to think I had it all,
But that was [Ab]long before I knew what a girl like you could do

And if the [Ab]soul that lay t[C]hin [Bb]

Well, what is it then, what is it then, what is it then '
Then what is it I've got '
