If Thats What It Takes Tab

by Celine Dion


                                                     
You're the bravest of hearts, you're the strongest of souls
                                                   
You're my light in the dark, you're the place I call home
                                                   
You can say it's all right, but I know that you're breaking up inside
   
I see it in your eyes
                                 
Even you face the night afraid and alone
                
That's why I'll be there

                                 
When the storm rises up, when the shadows descend
                                         
Ev'ry beat of my heart, ev'ry day without end
                                
Ev'ry second I live, that's the promise I make
                                              
Baby, that's what I'll give, if that's what it takes
                  
If that's what it takes

                                          
You can sleep in my arms, you don't have to explain
                                             
When your heart's crying out, baby, whisper my name
                                                   
'Cause I've reached out for you when the thunder is crashing up above
       
You've given me your love
                                                  
When you smile like the sun that shines through the rain
                   
That's why I'll be there

                                  
When the storm rises up, when the shadows descend
                                        
Ev'ry beat of my heart, ev'ry day without end
                                
I will stand like a rock, I will bend till I break
                                             
Till there's no more to give, if that's what it takes
                                           
I will risk everything, I will fight, I will bleed
                                          
I will lay down my life, if that's what you need
                                        
Ev'ry second I live, that's the promise I make
                                 
Baby, that's what I'll give, if that's what it takes

                                                     
Through the wind and the rain, through the smoke and the fire
                                           
When the fear rises up, when the wave's ever higher
                                     
I will lay down my heart, my body, my soul
                            
I will hold on all night and never let go
                                       
Ev'ry second I live, that's the promise I make
                               
Baby, that's what I'll give, if that's what it takes

                    
If that's what it takes
                              
whatever it takes, whatever it takes
                  
If that's what it takes
                   
whatever, whatever, whatever it takes
