[Intro]
Asus2 Dm6/F F G Asus2 Dm6/F F G
[Verse 1]
Asus2
If I had met you on some journey
Fmaj7
Where would we be now
Asus2
If we had met some eastbound train
Fmaj7
Through some black sleeping town
A7sus
Would you have worn your silken robes
A
All made of royal blue?
Gadd#11 G Gadd9#11
Would I have dressed in smoke and fire
G Asus2 Dm6/F F G
For you to see through? Ah Ah
[Verse 2]
Asus2
If we had met in a darkened room
Fmaj7
Where people do not stay
Asus2
But shadows touch and pass right through
Fmaj7
And never see the day
A7sus
Would you have taken me upstairs
A
And turned the lamplight low?
Gadd#11 G
Would I have shown my secret self
Gadd9#11 Asus2 Dm6/F
And disappeared like the snow? Ah Ah
[Verse 3]
Asus2
Oh, I could have played your little girl
Fmaj7
Or I could've played your wife
Asus2
I could have played your mistress
Fmaj7
Running danger down through you life
A7sus A
I could've played your lady fair
A7sus A
All dressed in lace like the foam from the sea
Gadd#11 G
I could've been your woman of the road
Gadd9#11 G Am Dm6/F F G
As long as you did not come back home to me Ah Ah
[Verse 4]
Asus2
But as it is, we live in the city
Fmaj7
And everything stays in place
Asus2
Instead we meet on the open sidewalk
Fmaj7
And it's well I know your face
A7sus A
We talk and talk, we tell the truth
A7sus
There are no shadows here
Gadd#11 G
But when I look into your eyes
Dm7 Gadd#11
I wonder what might have been here
A7sus A
Cause if I had met you on some journey
A7sus A Gadd#11
Where would we be now?
[Outro]
G Dm7 Gadd#11 G/A
