Bread, If (1971)
Key: :[D#] (w: David Gates)

INTRO:
[D#] [D#/D] [D#7] [G#] [G#m] [D#] [G#m] [A#]

VERSE 1:
If a [D#] picture paints a [D#/D] thousand words
Then [D#7] why can't I paint [G#] you
The [G#m] words will never [D#] show
The [G#m] you I've come to [A#] know

VERSE 2:
If a [D#] face could launch a [D#/D] thousand ships
Then [D#7] where am I to [G#] go
There's [G#m] no one home but [D#] you
You're [G#m] all that's left me, [A#] too

CHORUS 1:
And [Cm] when my [G] love for [D#] life is running [Fm7] dry
You [A#m6] come and [C7] pour your [G#] self on [A#] me

VERSE 3:
If a [D#] man could be two [D#/D] places
At one [D#7] time I'd be with [G#] you
To-[G#m]-morrow and [D#] today
Be-[G#m]-side you all the [A#] way

VERSE 4:
If the [D#] world should stop re-[D#/D]-volving
Spinning [D#7] slowly down to [G#] die
I'd [G#m] spend the end with [D#] you
And [G#m] when the world was [A#] through

CHORUS:
Then [Cm] one by [G] one the [D#] stars would all go [Fm7] out
Then [A#m6] you and [C7] I would [G#] simply [G#m] fly [/D#] a-[D#]-way

OUTRO: [G#m] [G#m] [D# open]
