intro : C / Am / G / C
C Am G C
if i was a sailor i would sail you out to sea
C F C G
take you across the ocean , ask you to marry me
Am F G C
oh if i was sailor i would sail you home to me
and if i was a soldier i would march to war for you
i’d face every bullet and cannonball that flew
oh if i was a soldier i would wage a war for you
and if i was a jailer i would lock you away
then i’d have the key to see you each and every day
oh if i was a jailer i would still have you today
and if i was a rich man i’d buy you flowers every day
but i Am a poor man so i’ll pick them on the way
oh if i was a rich man i would pay to make you to stay .
chorus :
Am Em
i’ve wasted so much time
F G C
writing songs and playing on my guitar
Am Em
i’ve wasted so much love
F G C
now i wish i’d never learnt to play a note .
and if i had an aeroplane then i’d fly you away
maybe we go to rome or paris for the day
oh if i had an aeroplane then i’d whisk you away
and if i was a betting man i’d bet you love me too
i’d bet everything i had for the chance to be with you
oh if i was a betting man my odds are 9 – 2 .
Am Em
i’ve wasted so much time
F G C
writing songs and playing on my guitar
Am Em
i’ve wasted so much love
F G C
now i wish i’d never learnt to play a note .
Am G Am
yeah i wish i’d never learnt to play a note
F G C
oh i wish i’d never learnt to play a note .
( solo + chorus )
and if i was a writer i would write a book on you
i’d tell them all the stories of the things we used to do
oh if i was a writer i would write a book on you
and if i was a painter i’d paint portraits of you
hang them in the galleries like all good painter do
oh if i was a painter i’d paint potraits of you .
( chorus )
