Intro: D G D Verse: D G D If we were children I would bake you a mud pie D G D Warm and brown beneath the sun D G D Never learned to climb a tree but I would try D G D Just to show you what I'd done Chorus: G D Oh what I wouldn't do A D If I had you, babe, I had you G D Oh what I wouldn't do A D If I had you, babe Verse (same as first): D G D If I were old, my dearest, you would be older But I would crawl upon your lap Wrap a blanket ‘round our frail little shoulders And I'd die happily like that Chorus: G D Oh what I wouldn't do A D If I had you, babe, I had you G D Oh what I wouldn't do A D If I had you, babe, if I had you Interlude: G D A D G D A G Em D A So lace your hands ‘round the small of my back and I will kiss you like a king G D I will be your bride, I'll keep you warm at night A D I will sing, I will sing Interlude: G D A D G D A Verse (same as first): D G D It was now and we were both in the same place Didn't know how to say the words With my heart ticking like a bomb in a birdcage I left before someone got hurt Chorus: G D Oh what I wouldn't do A D If I had you, babe, I had you G D Oh what I wouldn't do A D If I had you, babe, if I had you This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.

The lyrics are incorrect at the end… it should say
