CAPO ON 4th FRET
[Intro]
Em G D C
Em G
If I were you (and I wish that I were you)
D C
All the things I'd do to make myself turn blue
Em G
I suppose I'd start by removing all my clothes,
D C
tie my pantyhose around my neck
[Chorus]
G Cadd9 D G Cadd9 D
I'll be that girl - and you would be right over
G Cadd9 D G Cadd9 D
If I were a field, you would be in clover
G Cadd9 D G Cadd9 D
If I were the sun, you would be in shadow
G Cadd9 Em
And if I had a gun, there'd be no tomorrow
[Verse]
G
If you will not have me as myself,
D
perhaps as someone else
C Em
Perhaps as you I'll be worth noticing
G
Then even a eunuch won't resist
D C
The magic of a kiss from such as me
[Chorus]
G Cadd9 D G Cadd9 D
I'll be that girl - and you would be right over
G Cadd9 D G Cadd9 D
If I were a field, you would be in clover
G Cadd9 D G Cadd9 D
If I were the sun, you would be in shadow
G Cadd9 D G
And if I had a gun, there'd be no tomorrow
Cadd9
It's time to kick off your shoes,
D G
learn how to choose sadness
Cadd9
It's time to throw off those chains,
D
addle our brains
G
with madness
Cadd9
'Cause we've got plenty of time
D
to grow old and die
C D
But when at last your beauty's faded,
Em
you'll be glad that I have waited for you
[Instrumental]
G D C
Em
When you're done
G
with being beautiful and young
D C
When that course is run, then come to me
[Chorus]
G Cadd9 D G Cadd9 D
I'll be that girl - and you would be right over
G Cadd9 D G Cadd9 D
If I were a field, you would be in clover
G Cadd9 D G Cadd9 D
If I were the sun, you would be in shadow
G Cadd9 D G
And if I had a gun, there'd be no tomorrow
Cadd9 D G
There'd be no tomorrow
Cadd9 D G
There'd be no tomorrow
Cadd9 D G
There'd be no tomorrow
Cadd9 D G
There'd be no tomorrow
Cadd9 D G
