This is probably from some B-Side of a Dire Straits Song, I'm not entirely
sure though, that's why I posted it under Mark Knopfler. Anyway it's a great 
song and here are the chords for it:
E
EOo-ooo Aif I had you, yeEah the things that AI could do 
Honey, if I had you  E  
Now I could sing like Aan angel, fly just like a bird E  
ASing you the best love song you ever heard. E

AFloat like a butterfly, sting just like a,          BjuC#mst like a bee.  B  
E

If I had you.  
Now I'd go get your name tattooed on my chest, 
Well it'd just say 'my baby, my baby, she's the best.' 
I could be your Superman, you could be my Lois Lane 
I could be a Tarzan, you could be my sweet Jane - if you wanted to.
