If I Were A Carpenter by Leon Russell




 If I Were A Carpenter 





Tuning: E A D G B E

D          C
If I was a carpenter
G              D
And you were a lady
                   C
Would you marry me anyway?
G                 D
Would you have my baby?
 
D           C
If a tinker was my trade
G                D
Would you tinker with me?
                   C
Would you keep the vows we made
G           D
Followin' behind me?
 
D            C
And if I was Jesus
G                D
And I built some crosses
                  C
Could you see the future?
G                   D
Could you stand the losses
            C
Of lovin' a carpenter
G           D
And being a lady
             C
And takin' a chance on me
G             D
Just to be my baby?
 
C                    D
Save my love through loneliness
G                    D
Save my love through sorrow, yes
                 C
I'll give you my onliness
G                   D
If you just give me tomorrow
 
D          C
If I was a rock star
G               D
Would you be my groupie?
                     C
Would you make sweet love to me?
G            D
Come to California?
 
D                C
Well, I might go crazy
G         D
I have to warn ya
               C
Well, I get so mean sometimes
G                 D
When the spirit's on me
 
D                C
That I think I'm Jesus
G            D
Out buildin' crosses
                 C
Could ya see the future?
G                  D
Could ya stand the losses?
            C
Of lovin' a carpenter
G           D
And being a lady
             C
And takin' a chance on me
G             D
Just to be my baby?
 
C                    D
Save my love through loneliness
G                    D
Save my love through sorrow, yeah
                 C
I'll give you my onliness
G                     D
If you'd only give me tomorrow
