Lyrics
I could (D)while away the hours,
(Em)conferrin' with the (A7)flowers,
(Dsus4)consultin' with the (D)rain.
And my (G)head I'd be scratchin' while my (A7)thoughts were busy hatchin' if I (D)only (G)had a brain.
(A9)I'd un (D)ravel ev'ry riddle for (Em)any (A7)individ'le in (Dsus4)trouble or in (D)pain.
With the (G)thoughts you'll be thinkin' you could (A7)be another Lincoln if you (D)only (G)had a brain.
(A9)I'd (D)unonly (Em)had a brain.
(D)Oh, (G)I could tell you (Bm)why
the (A)ocean's near the (D6)shore.
I could (F#)think of things I never thunk (Bm7)before.
And then I'd (E9)sit,
and think some (Asus4)more.
I would (D)not be just a nothin' my (Em)head all full of (A7)stuffin' my (Dsus4)heart all full of (D6)pain.
(D)I would (G)dance and be merry,
life would (A7)be a dingaderry if I only had a brain.
