[Verse]
            C        
If I were a carpenter
G              D   
And you were a lady
                   C     
Would you marry me anyway
G                 D   
Would you have my baby
C                        
If a tinker were my trade
G               D      
Would you still find me
             C          
Carrying the pots I made
G         D        
Following behind me
C                D     
Save my love for sorrow
C                D     
Save my love for lonely
               C  G       
I've given you my tomorrow
             D      D7
And love you always ■ 
D                C             G
■ If I worked my hands in wood ■
          D7           
Would you still love me
                D       G                         D       
Answer me quick Tim how could How could I put you above me
     C                  D                  
If I were a miller at a mill wheel grinding
          C                   
Would you miss your colour box
D          D7     
Soft shoes shining


[Chorus]
D C D                Dm7       
■ ■ Save my love for loneliness
        Am7      D     
Save my love for sorrow
                  C       
I've given you my onlyness
G            D7      
Give me your tomorrow
