Introduction on Verse
If G you were the Em woman and C I was the D man
Would I G send you yellow Em roses,
Would I C dare to kiss your D7 hand'
In the Em morning would I caAmress you
As the C wind caresses the D7 sand,
If C you were the Am woman and D I was the G man'
If G I was the Em heart and C you were the D head
Would you G think me very Em foolish
If one C day I decided to D7 shed
These Em walls that surAmround me
Just to C see where these feelings D7 led,
If C I was the Am heart and D you were the G head'
[Am7] [Bm] [Cm] [Bm]
[Am7] [Bm] [Am] [G]
If G I was the Em woman and C you were the D man
Would I G laugh if you Em came to me
With your C heart in your D7 hand
And said, I Em offer you this Am freely
And will C give you all that I D7 can
Because C you are the Am woman
And D I am the G man'
