Chris Knight – If I Were You (Guitar)

G                   C
If I were you, then I would gladly

D/F#         G
loan to me a dollar or two

           D/F#     C
So I could eat, and maybe get

                     C
But I'm not, and I'm stranded

       D/F#             G
Like a castaway in this town

    C           D/F#
And you seem so unwilling

          G                C
To help a fellow when he's down

          G    D/F#            G
If I were you, that's what I'd do

G              C                 D
If I were you, I wouldn't be out on these streets

G
The whole night through

                 D/F#      C
Yeah, I'd have a job and a pretty wife

     D/F#              G
That I could come home to

                 C             D/F#
But I don't, and I have twenty cents

           G
Left to my name

    C               D/F#
And you're the only one left here

G              C
That I have to blame

          G    D/F#            G
If I were you, That's what I'd do

G         C              D/F#
Sir, it's not like me to take from you

G
Things I haven't earned

C                 D/F#
I wish I could go back

             G       D/F#   G
And need the lessons I have learned

                       C
But I can't, so you'll gladly

         D/F#          G
Put your money in this sack

    C                  D/F#
Yes Sir, this thing is loaded

      G               C
And I have the hammer back

          G    D/F#            G
If I were you, that's what I'd do

C         G    D/F#
If I were you, that's what to do
