DIf I.. were a caCrpenter G and you were a laDdy, Dwould you marry me aCnyway? G Would you have my bDaby?
DIf a tinker wCere my trade G would you still lDove me? DCarrying the pCots I made G following beDhind me.
(Chorus)
SCave my love through loDneliness, SGave my love for sDorrow, DI'm given you my oCwnliness, G Come give your toDmorrow.
(Verse 2)
DIf I worked my hCands in wood, G Would you still loDve me?
DAnswer me babe, &qCuot;Yes I woGuld, I'll put yDou above me."
DIf I were a mCiller, G at a mill wheel gDrinding,
Dwould you miss your cColored box,G your soft shoe sDhining?
(Chorus)
SCave my love through loDneliness, SGave my love for sDorrow, DI'm given you my oCwnliness, G Come give your toDmorrow.
(Verse 3)
DIf I.. were a caCrpenter G and you were a laDdy, Dwould you marry me aCnyway? G Would you have my bDaby?
Dwould you marry me aCnyway? G Would you have my bDaby? (Outro) D C G D
