Blue Merle – If I Could
Verse: Gsus4, G, Bb, F (repeat)
If I were you I'd turn this thing around
Before it runs aground
But I know you and there's nothing
That could ever slow you down
I closed me eyes hoping
It would all work out in time
But here we are
And there's nothing I can do
To change your mind
Chorus: Ebmaj7, Bbmaj7, Dbmaj7, Ab, Bb
Cause if I could you know I would
If I could you know I would
If I could you know I would
Verse: same verse chords

I circled once then twice
Before I finally found the words
The sweetest sound but nothing
That you ain't already heard
I knew the day would come
Your ship would run aground
But I know you and
There's nothing you would do
To slow it down I wish I could slow you down
Chords: same chorus chords
Cause if I could you know I would
If I could you know I would
If I could you know I would
Bridge: Gm, Cm7, Db, Ab (x2)
I should've known
My chance was gone
The way you laughed
When first we kissed
Another round and I'd have won
But as it was it never came
Your body spoke a thousand truths
Another shade into my soul
I'm on my knees and begging now
What would it take?
Solo: Bbmaj7, Gm7, Cm7, Gm7, Dbmaj7, Ab, Bb
I'm down on my knees
Final Chorus: Bbmaj7, Gm7, Cm7, Gm7, Dbmaj7, Ab, Bb
Cause if I could you know I would
If I could you know I would
If I could you know I would
Cause if I could you know I would
If I could you know I would
If I could you know I would
If I were you I'd turn this thing around before it runs aground
