1st verse:
G
If I were alone in the desert
    C                     G
Without a drink of water around
   C                          G
On my knees and hands in that white, scorching sand
                                D
With the hot Sahara sun beating down
   G
If I could be granted my wishes
   C                          G
If anything I want could come true
C                          G
I know that it might sound funny
    D                           G
But here's what I'd want you to do


Chorus:
              C
Tell Lorrie I love her
              G
Tell Lorrie I need her
         D
Tell her everything would be okay
                G
If I could just see her
              C
Tell Lorrie I love her
              G
Tell Lorrie I need her
     Am
If I leave this old world
         D                       G  
Tell her she's the only girl for me


2nd verse:
G
If I were adrift on the ocean
C                               G
A vessel with no sails or steam
C                               G
Floating aimlessly on and endless sea
                                D
Hopelessly lost it would seem
  G
If all of the fish in the water
  C                     G
Could echo my last dying plea
C                               G
I know you might not understand it
   D                            G
But here's what I'd want it to be

(chorus)

If I leave this old world
Tell her she's the only girl for me
