If I Were a Carpenter(Chords)

If I were a carpenter        and you were a lady  
D                     C                       G                                        D  
Would you marry me anyway,     would you have my baby?  
 D                                 C                             G                D  
If a tinker were my trade,        would you still love me?

Carrying the pots I made,    following behind me  

Refrão  

C                                   D  
Save my love through loneliness,  
C                            D  
Save my love for sorrow;   
      D                             C          Am  
I've given you my onliness--  
G                                    D        
Give me your tomorrows.  
D                                       C                  G                        D  
If I worked my hands in wood,      would you still love me  
D                                   C                       G                           D  
Answer me, babe, yes, I would,   I would put you above me  
   D                  C                   G                       D  
If I were a miller          at a mill wheel grinding  
D                                  C                     G                                  D  
Would you miss your colored box,    your soft shoes shining?
