If I Were A Carpenter Tim Hardin D C G D (x4) If I.. were a carpenter and you were a lady, Would you marry me anyway would you have my baby If a tinker were my trade would you still find me Carrying the pots I made following behind me. (Chorus) C D G D D C G D Save my love through sorrow, Save my love through lonely, I've given you my tomorrow, Love me only. (Verse 2) If I worked my hands in wood, would you still love me Answer me babe, yes I could, I'll put you above me. If I were a miller, at a mill wheel grinding, would you miss your colored box, your soft shoes shining Save my love through loneliness, Save my love for sorrow, I've given you my ownliness, Give me your tomorrow. (Verse 3) If I.. were a carpenter and you were a lady, Would you marry me anyway would you have my baby
