If - Bread (David Gates)

Intro:
A E7 Em7 D9 Bb+7 A Dm6 E7
007600 006400 005400 004230 003230 002220 000201 020130
A E7 Em7 D9
007600 006400 005400 004230
If a picture paints a thousand words, then why can't I paint you?
Bb+7 A Dm6 E7
003230 002220 000201 020100
The words will never show the you I've come to know.

A E7 Em7 D9
If a face could launch a thousand ships, then where am I to go?
Bb+7 A Dm6 E7
There's no one home but you -- you're all that's left me to.


Bridge:

F#m Fdim(III) F#m D6
244222 003434 244222 000202
And when my love for life is running dry,
C#m7-5 F#7 Bm7-5 E7
045450 242322 023230 020100
You'll come and pour your-self on me.

A E7 Em7 D9
If a man could be two places at one time, I'd be with you;
Bb+7 A Dm6 E7
Tomorrow and today, beside you all the way.
A E7 Em7 D9
If the world should stop revolving, spinning slowly down to die,
Bb+7 A Dm6 E7
I'd spend the end with you, and when the world was through,


F#m Fdim(III) F#m D6
Then one by one, the stars would all go out,
C#m7-5 F#7 Bm Bm7 Bm7-5
045450 242322 224432 004432 023230
Then you and I would sim - ply fly
E7 A D9 Bb+7 A
020100 002220 004230 003230 002220
A - way.
