Verse: 1 
   D 
If I were the man I used to be I wouldn't stand here 
        C                 D 
Waiting for you; I'd just walk away, 
C                     D 
Quietly, would you go look for me? 
D 
Hands that hold one another may never 
          C          D 
Touch the same again even then 
              C            D 
If I were the man it never would have been losing you 
              Bm      A     D 
If I were the man; 

Verse: 2 
D 
Take the times that we ever shared together and wrap them all in little 
C                          D 
Rings of clay and roll the rings away, 
 C                        D 
Away from me you take the light of day; 
D 
Winds that softly blow the thought of losing you 
 C                  D 
Across my mind, and leave behind 
       C                     D 
In the shifting sands all my dreams and plans 
              Bm       A      D 
If I were the man,
