(intro 2x) D5 C5 G5 D5

D5               C5         G5              D5
If  I  were  a  carpenter and you were a lady
D5                  C5       G5                 D5
Would you marry me anyway? Would you have my baby?
D5                C5       G5               D5
If a tinker were my trade would you still find me?
D5            C5            G5                D5
Carrying the pots I made, following behind me

C5                    D5           C5                    D5
Save my love through loneliness, save my love through sorrow
D5             C5          G5             D5
I give you my only ness, give me your tomorrow

D5              C5                G5               D5
If I worked my hands in wood oh would you still love me?
D5                C5             G5            D5
Answer me babe, "Yes, I would, I'll put you above me"
D5           C5             G5                D5
If a miller were my trade I'd a mill wheel grinding
D5                   C5          G5                 D5
Would you miss your color box? Would you have my child?
