[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
If [G]I were a carp[C]enter an
[Am]d you were a lad[G]y
Would you marry me [F]anyway,
[C]would you have my [G]baby?
If I worked my hand[C]s in wood,
[Am]would you still [G]love me?
Answer me, baby, [F]yes, I would.
[C]I'd put you [G]above me.
[C]Save my love for loneli[G]ness.
[C]Save my love for sor[G]row.
I've given you my [F]only lesson.
Come [C]give me your tomorrow.
[G]If I were a mil[C]ler at [Am]a
mill wheel [G]grinding
Would you miss your colored [F]rocks
[C]or your soft shoe shin[G]ing?
If a tinker were my [C]trade
[Am]would you still [G]find me
Carrying the pot[F]s I made
an[C]d following b[G]ehind me?
You've [C]saved my love
through [G]loneliness
And you've [C]saved my love
through sor[G]row
I've given you my [F]onlyness
Come [C]give me your tomorrow
[G]
