capo 1

(verse 1)
               
I could be in love,

                          
if you wore that dress everyday
 
                               
With your hair just so and your eyes are grey
             
                                
You'd make a beautiful bird on a line,

                     
a beautiful bride of Frankenstein,

                    
a beautiful drop of iodine...

                                 
If you were mine, if you were mine, if you were mine.

(verse 2)

                
I could be in love,

                       
if the sun came out everyday

                                
and set the sky on fire and the city grey.

                            
I'd be there at the drop of a dime...

                                 
If you were mine, if you were mine, if you were mine.

(chorus)

                                                                  
If you were mine I'd tear the altar down of all that I've lost to romance.

                                                            
If you were mine I'd risk my dignity if only to give love a chance.

                               
If you were mine, I'd have the world.

                               
I'd have the world, if you were mine.

  

           
I could be in love,

                       
if the sirens sang everyday.

                          
You draw me closer to destiny.

                          
Give us a smile meant to shine.

                         
Me and my bride of Frankenstein,

                      
a beautiful bird on a line,

                                 
If you were mine, if you were mine, if you were mine.

                                 
Would you be mine, could you be mine?


(Chorus)

                                                                  
If you were mine I'd tear the altar down of all that I've lost to romance.

                                                            
If you were mine I'd risk my dignity if only to give love a chance.

                               
If you were mine, I'd have the world.

                               
I'd have the world, if you were mine.

                                
If you were mine,  I'd have the world.

                                 
I'd have the world, if you were mine.

(solo)
If you were mine...
(solo)

                              
If you were mine, I'd have the world.

                               
I'd have the world, if you were mine

                              
if you were mine, if you were mine,

                                
I'd have the world, I'd have the world,

if you were mine....

(chorus--softer)

                                                                  
If you were mine I'd tear the altar down of all that I've lost to romance.

                                                            
If you were mine I'd risk my dignity if only to give love a chance.

(fierce again ;)
 
                              
If you were mine, I'd have the world.

                               
I'd have the world, if you were mine.

                                
If you were mine,  I'd have the world.

                                 
I'd have the world, if you were mine.

                               
If you were mine   , I'd have the world

                               
If you were mine   , I'd have the world

(claps)
If you were mine, I'd have the world, 

I'd have the world, if you were mine.
