[D]If I.. were a ca[C]rpenter[G]and you were a la[D]dy,
[D]would you marry me a[C]nyway? [G] Would you have my b[D]aby?
[D]If a tinker w[C]ere my trade [G]would you still l[D]ove me?
[D]Carrying the p[C]ots I made [G]following be[D]hind me.
(Chorus)
S[C]ave my love through lo[D]neliness,S[G]ave my love for s[D]orrow,
[D]I'm given you my o[C]wnliness, [G]Come give your to[D]morrow.
(Verse 2)
[D]If I worked my h[C]ands in wood,[G]Would you still lo[D]ve me?
[D]Answer me babe, "Y[C]es I would, [G]I'll put you ab[D]ove me."
[D]If I were a m[C]iller,[G]at a mill wheel g[D]rinding,
[D]would you miss your c[C]olored box,[G] your soft shoe s[D]hining?
(Chorus)
S[C]ave my love through lo[D]neliness,S[G]ave my love for s[D]orrow,
[D]I'm given you my o[C]wnliness, [G]Come give your to[D]morrow.
(Verse 3)
[D]If I.. were a ca[C]rpenter[G]and you were a la[D]dy,
[D]would you marry me a[C]nyway? [G] Would you have my b[D]aby?
[D]would you marry me a[C]nyway? [G] Would you have my b[D]aby?

If I were acar-pen-terand u were alady
w'ld u marry me anywayw'ld u have my baby
if I tink'r were my tradew'ld u still love me
carry'n the pots I made follow'n behind me
Save my luv thr'gh lonelyness save my luv for sorrow
