If The Stars Were Mine - Melody Gardot
Tuning: Dropped D
[Verse 1]
Gmaj13 Em13
If the stars were mine I'd give them all to you
Em13
I'd pluck them down right from the sky And leave it only blue
D9
I would never let the sun forget To shine upon your face
Gmaj13 D9
So when others would have rain clouds You'd have only sunny days
Gmaj13 Em13
If the stars were mine I'd tell you what I'd do
Db7 C7 B7 Bb7 D7 Gmaj13
I'd put the stars right in a jar And give 'em all to you
[Verse 2]
Gmaj13 Em13
If the birds were mine I'd tell them when to sing
Em13
I'd make them sing a sonnet When your telephone would ring
D9
I would put them there inside the square Whenever you went out
Gmaj13 D9
So there'd always be sweet music Whenever you walk about
Gmaj13 Em13
If the birds were mine I'd tell you what I'd do
Db7 C7 B7 Bb7 D7 Gmaj13
I'd teach the birds such lovely words And make 'em sing for you
Db7 C7 B7 Bb7 D7 Gmaj13
I'd teach the birds such lovely words And make 'em sing for you
[Verse Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
Gmaj13 Em13
If the world was mine I'd paint it gold and green
Em13
I'd make the oceans orange For a brilliant color scheme
D9
I would color all the mountains Make the sky forever blue
Gmaj13 D9
So the world would be a painting And I'd live inside with you
Gmaj13 Em13
If the world was mine I'd tell you what I'd do
Db7 C7 B7 Bb7 D7 Gmaj13
I'd wrap the world in ribbons And then give it all to you
Db7 C7 B7 Bb7 D7 Gmaj13 --> Slow down
I'd teach the birds such lovely words And make 'em sing for you
Db7 C7 B7 Bb7 D7 Gmaj13
I'd put those stars right in a jar and Give them all to you
