D           Cadd9     G              D
If I were a carpenter and you were a lady
                   Cadd9 G                  D     Cadd9 G
Would you marry me anyway would you have my baby
     D      Cadd9         G               D
If a tinker were my trade would you still find me
             Cadd9        G                D
Carrying the pots I made, following behind me

Cadd9                D 
Save my love through sorrow
Cadd9                D
Save my love through lonely
D                 Cadd9 
You can have my tomorrow
G            D
Just love me only


Instrumental


If I worked my hands in wood would you still love me
Answer me, say yes I would I place you above me
If I were a miller with a mill wheel grinding
Would you miss your pretty clothes and your soft shoes shining

Save my love through sorrow
Save my love through lonely
You can have my tomorrow
Just love me only

Instrumental

If I were a carpenter and you were a lady
Would you marry me anyway would you have my baby
