[Verse 1]
E D
If I were a swan, I'd be gone.
E D
If I were a train, I'd be late.
E C#7 F# B7 E B7
And if I were a good man, I'd talk to you more often than I do.
[Verse 2]
E D
If I were to sleep, I could dream.
E D
If I were afraid, I could hide.
E C#7 F# B7 E B7
If I go insane, please don't put your wires in my brain.
[Verse 3]
E D
If I were the moon, I'd be cool.
E D
If I were a rule, I would bend.
E C#7 F# B7 E B7
If I were a good man, I'd understand the spaces between friends.
[Verse 4]
E D
If I were alone, I would cry.
E D
And if I were with you, I'd be home and dry.
E C#7 F# B7 E B7
And if I go insane, will you still let me join in with the game?
[Verse 5]
E D
If I were a swan, I'd be gone.
E D
If I were a train, I'd be late again.
E C#7 F# B7 E
If I were a good man, I'd talk with you more often than I do.
