1927 - If I Could chords
Start Jamming...
[E] [A]
[Am] [E]
If I could paint, I'd paint a portrait of you.
[A] Sunlight in your eyes, a mask [B] of your subtleties.
[E] And a single tear, like [C#m] a silent prayer,
is [A] shining so much brighter than a [D] diamond ever did.
[C#m] If I could do anything [A] at all,
[Am] [E]
if my good luck, I'd write it before you.
[A] A tale of hidden treasures [B] with an I O U.
[E] And a million words [C#m] would say a thing
that [A] won't be said in three [D] words where love's the central theme.
[C#m] If I could do anything [A] at all, I'd do it [E] for you.
Oh, can't you see what you mean to [A] me?
Anything I do, [B] I do it for you.
[E]
Oh, and don't you [C#m] know just how far [A] I go.
Anything I [B] do, I do it for [G#] you.
[C#m]
Sometimes [C] I feel so second-rate.
[B]
Seems loving you is my [F#] greatest [A] mistake.
I know I'm insecure, and love don't keep score.
[B] But I wish I could give you more.
If I [E] could play, I'd play up a song for you.
[A] A raging sea of passion [B] that you never knew.
[E] Every whispered sound [C#m] would touch your heart.
[A] And maybe for a moment I could [Am] be your little star.
[C#m] If I could do anything [A] at all, [C#m] if I could, I'd give [F#] you more.
[A#] [B] If I could do anything [C#m] at [A] all,
[Am] I'd do [E] it for you.
Hey, son, can't you see what you mean to [A] me?
Anything I do, [B] I do it for you.
[E] Hey, son, don't you [C#m] know just how far I [A] go.
Anything I do, [B] I do it for you.
[E] Hey, son, can't you see what you mean to me?
[A]
Anything I do, [B] I do it for you.
[E] Hey, son, don't you [C#m] know just how far I [A] go.
Anything I do, [B] I do it [E] for you.
[C#m] [A] I do it, [B] do it [E] for you.
