D7        G             Am 7     Bm7               C 
I could while away the hours conferrin' with the flowers, 
 
    G                Am7    Bm  Bbm7 
Consulting with the rain; 
 
        C       C/B   Am7               Am7/G     D            D/C   D/B 
And my head I'd be a scratchin' while my thoughts were busy hatchin' 
 
D7    G          Am7      Bm7    D9     D7 
if I only had a brain. 
 
 
D7      G           Am 7      Bm7     C         
I'd unravel ev'ry riddle for any individdle  
 
    G             Am7   Bm7 Bbm7 
In trouble or in pain 
 
          C            C/B      Am7    Am7/G    D    D/C     D/B 
With the thoughts that I'd be thinkin', I could be another Lincoln 
 
 D7   G          Am7    G    G7 
if I only had a brain. 
 
 
Bridge: 
 
    C  Cdim               Bm7/5- E7     Am7     Dm7  D7   G   G/F#  Em 
Oh, I   --   could tell you why  --  the ocean's near the shore, 
 
         F#m7                B7           Em   B+ 
I could think of things I'd never thunk before, 
 
              A7                D       D7 
And then I'd sit and think some more. 
 
 
D7       G              Am 7       Bm7              C 
I would not be just a nuffin', my head all full of stuffin', 
 
      G                Am7    Bm7    Bbm7 
My heart all full of pain; 
 
        C   C/B    Am7     Am7/G    D   D/C    D/B 
And perhaps I'd deserve you and be even worthy erv you 
 
D7    G          Am7     Bm7    Am7     G 
If I only had a brain.
