If I Died Today
By Tim Magraw (capo in the 2nd fret)
Am
If I died today,
E
Who'd turn off my coffee pot?
F
Would there be a street parade?
D
Would I just be an after-thought?
Am
If I died today,
E
Would I still be a waiter?
F
Could I fly around like superman?
D
Would I make the Sunday paper?
Chorus:
Am F
I wonder who I'd see,
C G
Cryin' standin' over me.
Am F G
Who would just send their regards?
Am C G
Would anybody say that "at least he's in a better place?"
Am F G
And who would get this old guitar?
Am
If I died today,
E
Would my mama keep on prayin'?
F
Would my buddies go out drinkin?
D
Would my alarm clock keep on blinkin'?
Am
If I died today,
E
Would I need to be ashamed?
F
Would I be easy to forget?
D
Could I live with my regrets?
Chorus:
Am F
I wonder who I'd see,
C G
Cryin' standin' over me.
Am F G
Who would just send their regards?
Am C G
Would anybody say "The world will never be the same"
Am F G
And who would get this old guitar?
Instrumental

Am
If I died today,

Would I see my room from Heaven?

Would my family talk about me,
D
Every Christmas and Thanksgivin'?
Chorus:
Am F
