1 Verse:
G
I've heard 'em say before to live just like you're dying, yeah
                             Am
Wish I could say that's how I am but I'd be lying, yeah
Em
Lying in my bed at night one too many times, I'm thinking
                   C
What if? (What if?) What if? (What if?)
 
2 Verse:
G
My biggest fear is waking up to find what matters
                                   Am
Is miles away from what I spent my life chasing after
       Em
Is my story gonna have the same two words in every chapter?
                  C
What if? (What if?) What if? (What if?)
 
Pre-Chorus:
    G                                        Am
But last I checked this heart inside my chest, is still beating
Em                              C
Well I guess it's not too late
 
Chorus:
           G
What if today's the only day I got?
                                       Am
I don't wanna waste it if it's my last shot, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Em
No regrets, in the end
                   C
I wanna know I got no what-ifs
    G
I'm running 'til the road runs out
                                          Am
I'm lighting it up, I'm right here, right now, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Em
No regrets, in the end
                   C                 G
I wanna know I got no what-ifs, yeah
 
 
3 Verse:
G
See I refuse to be a should'a, would'a, could'a been
                           Am
I can't go back in time, I don't have a DeLorean
Em
What I'm tryna say is I don't wanna say these words again
        C
What if? What if?
 
Pre-Chorus:
    G                                        Am
But last I checked this heart inside my chest, is still beating
Em                              C
Well I guess it's not too late
 
Chorus:
           G
What if today's the only day I got?
                                       Am
I don't wanna waste it if it's my last shot, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Em
No regrets, in the end
                   C
I wanna know I got no what-ifs
    G
I'm running 'til the road runs out
                                          Am
I'm lighting it up, I'm right here, right now, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Em
No regrets, in the end
                   C                 G
I wanna know I got no what-ifs, yeah
 
Bridge: x2
          D                      Em
I'm gonna dream a little bigger, burn a little brighter
C
Stand a little taller, closer to Your fire
D                    Em
Dig a little deeper, reach a little further
C
Love a little harder
