If I Died Today by Tim McGraw

Capo on the 2nd fret

[Verse 1]

If I died today,

Who'd turn off my coffee pot?

Would there be a street parade?

Would I just be an after-thought?

If I died today,

Would I still be a waiter?

Could I fly around like superman?

Would I make the Sunday paper?

[Chorus]

Am F

I wonder who I'd see,

C G

Cryin' standin' over me.

Am F G

And who would just send their regards?

Am F C G

Would anybody say "at least he's in a better place?"

Am F G

And who would get this old guitar?

[Verse 2]

If I died today,

Would my mama keep on prayin'?

Would my buddies go out drinkin?

Would my alarm clock keep on blinkin'?

If I died today,

Would I need to be ashamed?

Would I be easy to forget?

Could I live with my regrets?

[Chorus]

Am F

I wonder who I'd see,

C G

Cryin' standin' over me.

And who would get this old guitar?
