If I Could

[VERSE 1]
D
If I could sing like the poets and 
kings of this world
If I could rise like the wind o'er 
                        G
the tides of the sea
                    A7           
I would sing you to sleep my love 
      D               G
with sweet melody
            A7                 
And let you dream away till the 
 D               G
morning light returned again
   A                       D    C 
To take you away from me
 G  D



[VERSE 2]
D
If I could speak with the tongues of
 the masters of old
If I could tame all the fleeting 
                      G
perceptions I hold
                     A7         
Would I stand in the marketplace 
   D           G
before you

              A7              
To be shouted down without any 
 D                     G
warning at all, to be stood by the 
wall
    A                         D    
And shot by the man in blue
C  G  D    C  G



[VERSE 3]
D
If I could run with the grace of a 
sun coloured stallion
If I could fly like the great silver
                        G
 jets in the morning
                A7                 
If I caused the wind to change with
     D                  G
 one wave of my hand
               A7            
And if I could play the final 
 D            G
symphony and set it free
         A                       D
Would it mean anything to you
    C  G  D    C  G



[VERSE 4]
D
If I could stand like the rusty old 
man in his armour
If I could ride the steed that he 
                     G
rode in his time
                 A7               
I would turn his head away to the 
D         G
river
            A7                
And let him wander through the 
 D             G
meadow grass, wild and free
    A                  D    C  G 
For everyone to see
 D    C  G



[VERSE 5]
D
If I could sing like the poets and 
kings of this world
If I could rise like the wind o'er 
                        G
the tides of the sea
                    A7           
I would sing you to sleep my love 
      D               G
with sweet melody
            A7                 
And let you dream away till the 
 D               G
morning light returned again
   A
To take you away from me
