IF I WERE A CARPENTER TRAD Guitar Chords    

IF I WERE A CARPENTER      TRAD


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

C                    D           C                    D
Save my love through loneliness, save my love through sorrow
D             C         G              D
I give you my onlyness, give me your tomorrow.

If I worked my hands in wood oh would you still love me?
Answer me babe, "Yes, I would, I'll put you above me"

If a miller were my trade I'd a mill wheel grinding
Would you miss your coloured blouse? Your soft shoes shining?

Save my love through loneliness, save my love through sorrow
I give you my onlyness, give me your tomorrow.
