A D A
I heard her sing in tongues of silver
A E A
I heard her cry on a summer storm
A D A
I loved her, but she did not know it
A E A
So I don't think about her anymore
D G D
Now she's gone, and I can't believe it
A E A
So I don't think about her anymore
A D A
If three and four were seven only
A E A
Where would that leave one and two
A D A
If love can be and still be lonely
A E A
Where does that leave me and you?
D G D
Time there was, and time there will be
A E A
Where does that leave me and you?

If I had a buckskin stallion
A E A
I'd tame him down and ride away
A D A
If I had a flyin' schooner
A E A
I'd sail into the light of day
D G D
If I had your love forever
A E A
Sail into the light of day
A D A
Pretty songs and pretty places
A E A
Places that I've never seen
A D A
Pretty songs and pretty faces
A E A
Tell me what their laughter means
D G D
Some look like they'll cry forever
A E A
Tell me what their laughter means
A D A
If I had a buckskin stallion
A E A
I'd tame him down and ride away
A D A
If I had a golden galleon
A E A
I'd sail into the light of day
D G D
If I had your love forever
A E A
Sail into the light of day
