E5  G5  D5  C5 
 
            E5           G5 
If I were you, & I wish that I were you 
D5                        C5 
All the things I'd do  to make myself turn blue 
       E5                  G5 
I suppose    I'd start by removing all my clothes 
D5                   C5
Tie my pantyhose    around my neck 
 
 
             G5          C5      D5        G5  C5 
I'll be that girl  and you would be right over 
D5      G5           C5      D5      G5      C5 
If I were a field  you would be in clover 
D5      G5           C5      D5      G5      C5 
If I were the sun  you would be in shadows 
    D5     G5         C5       D5     E5 
And if I had a gun  there'd be no tomorrows 
 

                G5 
If you will not have me as myself 
   D5                        C5                             E5 
Perhaps as someone else   perhaps as you I'll be worth noticing 
               G5 
Then even a eunuch won't resist 
    D5                    C5 
The magic of a kiss from such as me 


             G5         C5      D5        G5   C5 
I'll be that girl & you would be right over 
D5      G5           C5      D5      G5    C5 
If I were a field you would be in clover 
D5      G5           C5      D5      G5    C5 
If I were the sun you would be in shadow 
    D5     G5         C5       D5     G5 
And if I had a gun there'd be no tomorrow 
 
 
G5            C5               D5                   G5 
It's time to kick off your shoes  learn how to choose sadness 
             C5                  D5                       G5   C5  G5 
It's time to throw off those chains  addle our brains with madness 
               C5             D5  
Cause we got plenty of time to grow old and die 
    C5                            D5                                 E5 
But when at last your beauty's faded you'll be glad that I have waited for you 
 

G5  D5  C5 
 
              E5            G5 
When you're done with being beautiful & young 
D5                             C5 
When that course is run, then come to me 
 

             G5          C5      D5        G5   C5 
I'll be that girl - and you would be right over 
D5      G5           C5      D5      G5    C5 
If I were a field, you would be in clover 
D5      G5           C5      D5      G5    C5 
If I were the sun, you would be in shadow 
    D5     G5         C5       D5     G5 
And if I had a gun, there'd be no tomorrow 
C5       D5      G5 
There'd be no tomorrow 
C5       D5      G5 
There'd be no tomorrow 
C5       D5      G5 
There'd be no tomorrow 
C5       D5      G5 
There'd be no tomorrow 
C5  D5  G5
