If I Could Chords

(ver. 1)
John Prine
[Verse 1]
            G                       C
If I could make my living going fishing
              G                     D
Then I would make my living with a line and pole
    G
Put food on the table pay the money to the landlord
 C
Buy some working clothes
                     G                             D              G
Cause I ain't making money going fishing Like I'm paid at the factory

[Verse 2]
            G                             C
If I could pay all these bills with my guitar
              G                         D
Then I would pay these bills with some rock and roll
     G
Put food on the table pay the money to the landlord
 C
Buy some working clothes
                      G                             D              G
Cause I ain't making money playing guitar Like I'm paid at the factory

[Chorus]   
          C
Now if I could (if I could)
         G
Then I would (then I would)
      A
Make money doing something that I love
      D
I'd thank my lucky stars above

[Verse 3] 
              G                 C
If I could just get by loving you dear
              G                 D
Then I would just get by making love to you
     G
Put food on the table pay the money to the landlord
C
Buy some working clothes
                       G
Cause I ain't making money making love
          D               G
Like I'm paid at the factory

[Chorus]      
          C
Now if I could (if I could)
         G
Then I would (then I would)
      A
Make money doing something that I love
      D
I'd thank my lucky stars above
