Performed by Opal
Words and Music by Mike Lemense
From ?You?ll Get By?
Style: Light Rock
Notes
1 Guitar, Standard Tuning
Moderate Pace, pacing is a large part of the song, so for a good idea of how it?s played, listen to the song
Verse (Mike plays once before the singing comes in)
If I was to pass you on the way, do you think things would still seem so ok,
And if I was to talk about the other day, what is it you think you would say,
Refrain
Because sometimes I wonder why, we don?t look at things with our own eyes,
And when I wonder why is when I realize, that it?s a different situation in these times
In these times, oooooooooooo, It?s a different situation in these times
Other Verses
Verse 2
If I was to pass by your side, do you think everything would seem so alright,
And if I was to show you that I cried, would you wipe the tears from my eyes,
Verse 3
If I was to turn, smile, and wave, would you do the same back with no delay,
And if I was to show you that I pray, would you think me strong anyway
Verse 4
And if I was to show you my love, in the middle of the street, embraced in a hug,
Would you laugh or be true to your feelings, oh sometimes I wonder about these things
Then Verse 1 is repeated
Bridge (Mike plays the bridge 2x before the singing comes in)
And I wish people?d show a little love, so I could know what their feelings are made of,
And I wish people?d show a little care, just so the world could know that it?s there
Then back into the Refrain for the end
