If I were a carpenter, and you were a lady

Would you marry me anyway? would you have my baby?

If a tinker were my trade, would you still find me
C G D
Carrying the pots I made, following behind me?
[Chorus]
C D G D
Save my love through loneliness, save my love through sorrow
D C G D D
I've given you my onliness, give me your tomorrow

Would you miss your coloured box and your soft shoes shining?
[Chorus]

Save my love through loneliness, save my love through sorrow

I've given you my onliness, give me your tomorrow
