[Intro]
G   Em   Am   D
 
[Verse 1]
   G            Em        Am        D
If you were the woman and I was the man
        G               Em
Would I send you yellow roses
        Am                Cm7
Would I dare to kiss your hand?
       Bm                Am
In the morning would I caress you
         Em                Am
Like the wind caresses the sand
   C            Am        D         G
If you were the woman and I was the man
 
[Verse 2]
   G         Em    Am                  D
If I was the woman    and you were the man
          G              Em
Would you send me yellow roses
          Am              Cm7
Would you dare to kiss my hand?
       Bm                  Am
In the morning would you caress me
       Em                Am
As the wind caresses the sand
   C         Am     D                 G
If I was the woman   and you were the man
 
[Verse 3]
   G         Em     Am                 D
If I was the heart    and you were the head
          G             Em
Would you think me very foolish
       Am               Cm7
If one day I decided to shed
      Bm            Am
These walls that surround me
        Em                       Am
Just to see where these feelings led?
   C         Am        D            G
If I was the heart and you were the head?
 
[Instrumental]

|Bm Am |G    |G     |
 
[Verse 4]
   G         Em        Am               D
If I was the woman and you you were the man
        G            Em
Would I laugh if you came to me
          Am            Cm7
With your heart in your hand
             Bm             Am
And said, "I offer you this freely
              Em           Am
I will give you all that I can
        C           D                  G      G
Because you are the woman and I am the man"?
