#Intro:
#(A) (D) x 4
#
[A]If I wanted to I could do [D]anything right

[A]I could dance with the devil on a [D]Saturday night

[A]If I wanted to I could turn [D]matches to gold

[A]Smoke drink swear and I would [F#m]never grow old

[D]I wouldn't have to be in love with [G]you [D]

If I only [A]wanted to [D]

If I only [A]wanted to [D]

[A]If I wanted to I could run [D]fast as a train

[A]Be as sharp as a needle that's [D]twisting your brain

[A]If I wanted to I could turn [D]mountains to sand

[A]Have political leaders in the [F#m]palm of my hand

[D]I wouldn't have to be in love with [G]you [D]

If I only [A]wanted to [D]

If I only [A]wanted to [D]

[F#m]I could [A]leave tonight [Bm]and I would be [D]all right [F#m]

Stop [A]holding on if I [Bm]wanted to, if I only [E]wanted to...

(A) (D) x 4

[A]If I wanted to I could be as [D]patient as death

Fix this [F#m]hole in my heart leaking [D]into my flesh

If I [F#m]wanted to I could turn [D]sparks into ice

There'd never [A]be another woman who could [F#m]make you think twice

I [D]wouldn't have to be in love with [G]you [D]

If I only [A]wanted to [D]
