Verse 1
C 
Bb 
C 
If you
were a singer and I an old guitar
Bb 
I would help you to sing your songs
F 
and you'd become a star
C 
And you run off to keep
the world amused
Bb 
Leave me  here discarded in our youth
F 
To dream of dunes
C 
that once were yours and mine
G 
Hoping to be remembered
C 
like a dusty castle wine
If you were a hobo and I a king
Bb 
I would trade your rights for blows
F 
and give you everything
C 
Then you'd become the
princess at the ball
Bb 
And I'd be just a stranger in your heart
F 
C 
Straining for a glimpse of used to be
G 
Praying for deliverance
C 
Bb 
F 
C 
G 
from a dungeon I can't see
C 
But you are just a woman,
and I am but a man
Bb 
So I cast my fears aside
F 
and do the best I can
C 
But you will be the winner in the game
Bb 
And I'll be just the
fool who's lost his name
F 
C 
For everything that once was mine
G 
Trading songs  and dreams
and poems and schemes
C 
Bb 
C 
For a tiny wisp of time
