(verse 1)

em
I could be in love,
       D                    g
if you wore that dress everyday
          B                     em
With your hair just so and your eyes are grey
              g         B         em
You'ld make a beautiful bird on a line,
  D                  g
a beautiful bride of Frankenstein,
  B                 em
a beautiful drop of iodine...
            g                 B                  em
If you were mine, If you were mine , If you were mine  

(verse 2)

em
I could be in love,

if the sun came out everyday
            B                   em
and set the sky on fire and the city grey.
       g            B         em
I'd be there at the drop if a dime...
            g                 B                  em
If you were mine, If you were mine , If you were mine

If you you were mine I'd risk my dignity if only to give love a chance.
D           G    B             em
If you were mine,I'd have the world.
