C                  Dm          G                         F
If I was a better man would fellow men take me to their hearts
C           Dm           G                         
If I was a stronger man carrying the weight of popular demand
             F               Am                 G
Tell me would that alarm her I'd never harm her at all

C           Fmaj7   G               Fmaj7
If I was a soldier captive arms I'd lay before her
C           Famj7   G             Fmaj7
If I was a sailor    seven oceans I'd sail to her

C          Dm        G               F
If I was a wiser man would other men reach out and touch me
C             Dm      G                                       
If I was a kinder man dishing up love for a hungry world
              F                Am                     G       
Tell me would that appease her I want to please her again

C              F              G               F
If I was a painter I'd paint a world that couldn't taint her

If I was a leader on food of love from above I would feed her

If I was a poet all my love in burning words I would show it

If I was her lover her eyes in kisses I would cover

C              
Come here my baby
Dm
Oh they can't touch you now
G                       F
I'll keep you safe and warm
                                     
I'll never leave you at all
C                            
Come here my baby
 Dm                                   
Oh they won't touch you
G
Dishing up love for a hungry world
          F
Tell me would that appease you
Am                    G
I want to please you again
