Verse 1
(D minor) Yeah, (A minor) (D minor) yeah,
(Bdim) if (E major) I didn't have you (A minor) (D minor) (Bdim) (E major)
If I (A minor) didn't have (D minor) you to hold me tight (Bdim)
(E major) If I (A minor) didn't have (D minor) you to lie with at night (Bdim)
(E major) If (A minor) I didn't have you to
share my sigh (D minor) s
And to (Bdim) kiss me and dry
(Fdim) my (E major) tears when I cry
Well, I (F major) mean, really think that I would (G major)
have somebody else (A minor) (D minor)
(E major) If I (A minor) didn't have you,
(D minor) someone else would too (E major)
Your (A minor) love (D minor) is one in a mil (Bdim) lion
You (E major) couldn't (A minor) buy it (D minor) at any price (Bdim)
But (E major) of the (A minor) 9 .999900000
(D minor) other possible loves
Stat (Bdim) istically,
some (Fdim) of them would (E major) be equally nice
Or may (F major) be not as nice,
but say, (G major) smarter than you
Or dumber (F major) , but better at sport (G major)
Or...
Tra (F major) cing, I'm just saying
Prob (G major) ably have somebody else (G sharpdim) (A minor) (D minor)
(E major) If I didn't (A minor) have you,
(D minor) someone else would do (E major)
If (A minor) I were a rich man (D minor)
Diddle, diddle, diddle, (E major) diddle,
diddle, diddle, diddle -dee
I (A minor) guess I would (D minor) be with a
surgeon or a model
Or (Bdim) a Relie of the (E major) Royals or a Kennedy
Or (A minor) an infomani (D minor) acal exhibitionist heiress
(Bdim) To a large (E major) chain of hotels
If (A minor) I were (D minor) a rich man,
maybe I would fiddle
Diddle, (Bdim) diddle,
(E major) diddle with the rich man girls
I'm (A minor) (D minor) not saying that I'd not love you
If I (Bdim) was wealthy (E major) or handsome
But realistically,
(A minor) there's (D minor) lot s of fish in the sea
And if I (Bdim) had a different (E major) rod,
I would conceivably land some
(A minor) Even though I'm fiscally
consistently (D minor) pi tiable
And considerably less Brad Pitt
(Bdim) than Brad Pitiful
Am (Fdim) I really (E major) so poor and ugly
that you think only you could
possibly love (F major) me?
And I really think that I would, (G major) probably,
have somebody else (A minor) (D minor) (Bdim)
In (E major) my head
If I (A minor) didn't love (D minor) you,
someone else would (Bdim) too
Someone (E major) else would try to look,
I'm (A minor) not undervalu (D minor) ing what
we've got when I say
That (Bdim) given the role (E major) chaos inevitably plays
And (A minor) the inherently flawed (D minor) notion of fate
It's abstruse to (E major) deduce
I found my soulmate at the (A minor) age of 17
(D minor) It's just mathem (Bdim) atically un (E major) likely
that at a university in (A minor) Perth
I happen to (D minor) stumble on the one
girl on earth
(E major) specifically designed for me
(A minor) And if I may conjecture a
further ob (D minor) jection,
love has nothing to do
with destined per (Bdim) fection
The connection (Fdim) is strengthene (E major) d,
the affection simply grows over time
(F major) Like a flower, or a mushroom,
(G major) or a guinea pig, or a vine
Or a (F major) sponge, or bigotry, (G major) or a banana
Love (F major) is made more powerful
by the ongoing drama (G major) of
shared experience
and the syn (F major) ergy of a kind of symbiotic empathy,
(G major) or something.
(A minor) So I trust it goes (D minor) without saying
that I would feel really very (E major) sad
if to (A minor) morrow you (D minor) were to fall
off something high
or catch something (E major) bad.
(E minor) But I'm just (F major) saying,
I don't think you're spe (G major) cial.
I mean, I think (F major) you're special,
but you fall within a bell (G major) curve.
I mean, (F major) I'm just saying, probably.
(G major) I (G sharpdim) think (A minor) (D minor) you are unique
and beau (Bdim) tiful
You (E major) make me (A minor) happy (D minor) just by
being around (Bdim)
But (E major) ob (A minor) jectively you would have to agree
That (D minor) baby when I found you
Op (Bdim) tions (Fdim) were relatively
thin (E major) on the ground
You're (F major) lovely
but there must be girls (G major) as lovely as you
And may (F major) be more open to
spanking (G major) or table (F major) tennis
I reckon it's (G major) (G sharpdim) (A minor) pretty (D minor) likely
that if, for example,
my (E major) first girlfriend Jackie
hadn't (A minor) dumped me (D minor) af ter I kissed
Winston's ex -girlfriend (Bdim) Nia
at (E major) Steph's party back in 1993,
(A minor) then (D minor) our variables would
probably have (Bdim) been altered
(E major) by the absence of that event
(A minor) to have meant (D minor) the advent of a
tangen (Bdim) tial narrat (E major) ive
in which we don't meet, (A minor) which (D minor) is to say
there exists the theoretical
hypo (Bdim) thetical parallel (E major) life
where what (A minor) is is (D minor) not as it is
and I'm not your (Bdim) hus band
and you are not my (E major) wife
and I am a (A minor) stuntman
(D minor) living in LA
married to a small blonde
(E major) Portuguese skier
who when she's not (A minor) training
does (D minor) abstract painting practices
yoga and brews (E major) her own beer
and (A minor) really likes (D minor) making home movies
and suffers neck (Bdim) -down (E major) alopecia
but with (D minor) all my heart and all my mind
I (E minor) know one thing is true
I have (F major) just one life and just one love
and my (E minor) love, that love is you
And if (D minor) it wasn't for you, (E minor) darling,
(F major) do you really think that I would (G major) probably
have somebody else? (E major) (A minor) (D minor) (Bdim)
And (E major) if it (A minor) wasn't for (D minor) you, darling,
(E major) do you (A minor)
think would probably have somebody else?
