It’s If I were a (Bbmaj7)sculp tor,

but then a gain, (Am)no,

or man who makes (Dm)po in a

(F)But I know it’s not (C)much but it’s best I can (Dm)do.

My gift is my (Gm7)song and

And you can tell (Dm)ev ’ry bod y

It may be (Dm)quite sim ple, but

now that it’s (Bb)done,

I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind that I put down in (Bb6)words
