If I Knew

(C7sus)Oh, oh, oh, (F)I,

I was a (C)city boy;

to ride into (Bb)dangers where I'd always run,

a boy who had his fun.

Oh, I wouldn't have (F)done (Dm7)all the things that (Gm)I have done if I (C)knew one (F)day you'd come.

(Bbm)No, baby (no, baby), (F)no baby (no,

baby). (C7sus)Oh, oh, oh, (F)I,

I know it (C)breaks your heart to picture the (Bb)only one you want and love in someone else's arms.

Oh, I wouldn't have (F)done (Dm7)all the things that (Gm)I have done if I (C)knew one (F)day you'd come.

(Bbm)No, baby (no, baby), (F)no baby (no,

baby). (C7sus)Oh, oh, oh,

(F7)Oh, baby, (A)please, let's leave the past (Dm)behind us,

behind us, so that (A)we can go where love will (Dm)find us,

yeah, will find us.

I know (G)monsters will leave me,

but I (Bb)know that you'll (C7)believe me.

Baby, (F)I, I wish we were (C)seventeen

so I could (Bb)give you all the innocence

that you give to me.

Oh, I wouldn't have (F)done all (Dm7)the things (Gm)that I've done if I (C)knew

one (F)day you'd come, (Bbm)if I knew one day (F)you'd come.
