 Intro: C / Am / G / C
 
 C            Am             G             C  
 If I was a sailor I would sail you out to sea
 C                   F            C        G   
 Take you across the ocean, ask you to marry me
 Am             F             G            C   
 Oh if I was sailor I would sail you home to me
 
 And if I was a soldier I would march to war for you
 I'd face every bullet and cannonball that flew
 Oh if I was a soldier I would wage a war for you
 And if I was a jailer I would lock you away
 Then I'd have the key to see you each and every day
 Oh if I was a jailer I would still have you today
 And if I was a rich man I'd buy you flowers every day
 But I am a poor man so I'll pick them on the way
 Oh if I was a rich man I would pay to make you to stay.
 
 Chorus:
 
 Am                   Em 
 I've wasted so much time
 F                   G              C  
 Writing songs and playing on my guitar
 Am                   Em 
 I've wasted so much love
 F                    G             C       
 Now I wish I'd never learnt to play a note.
 
 And if I had an aeroplane then I'd fly you away
 Maybe we go to rome or paris for the day
 Oh if I had an aeroplane then I'd whisk you away
 And if I was a betting man I'd bet you love me too
 I'd bet everything I had for the chance to be with you
 Oh if I was a betting man my odds are 9-2.
 
 Am                   Em 
 I've wasted so much time
 F                   G              C  
 Writing songs and playing on my guitar
 Am                   Em 
 I've wasted so much love
 F                    G             C       
 Now I wish I'd never learnt to play a note.
 Am                   G               Am    
 Yeah I wish I'd never learnt to play a note
 F                    G              C     
 Oh I wish I'd never learnt to play a note.
 
 (Solo + Chorus)
 
 And if I was a writer I would write a book on you
 I'd tell them all the stories of the things we used to do
 Oh if I was a writer I would write a book on you
 And if I was a painter I'd paint portraits of you
 Hang them in the galleries like all good painter do
 Oh if I was a painter I'd paint potraits of you.
 
 (Chorus)
