[Verse 1]
D G D
They all sat around in a circle
G A
They were laughing and all telling lies
G A G A
Then the tall one he bumped in a dollar
D A D A
He said boys I've got nothing to hide
D G D A
Now if the King and the Queen stood together
D G A
Then the ace he would not be to blame
G A D G
And if the cards were all laid on the table
D A D
Then love could be more than a game
[Chorus]
G A D
And if the stars didn't shine on the water
C G
Then the sun wouldn't burn on the sand
D G D G
And if I were the man you wanted
D A D
I would not be the man that I am
[Verse 2]
D G D G
And I have seen my share of long nights
D G D A
And I have told my share of lies
G A D G
And I have run into the darkness
D A D G
When I saw the look in your eyes
D G D G
But if the night didn't lie in the darkness
D G A
Then the daylight would be hard to find
G A D G
And if the truth didn't turn to a weakness
D A D
I would have never have spoken my mind
[Chorus]
G A D
And if the stars didn't shine on the water
C G
Then the sun wouldn't burn on the sand
D G D G
And if I were the man you wanted
D A D
I would not be the man that I am
[Verse 3]
D G D G
So if you're going out to Carolina
D G A
Then don't linger in New Mexico
G A D G
And if you think of the one there behind you
D A D
Then you might not feel so alone
[Chorus]
G A D
And if the stars didn't shine on the water
C G
Then the sun wouldn't burn on the sand
D G D G
And if I were the man you wanted
D A D
I would not be the man that I am
D G D G
And if I were the man you wanted
D A D
I would not be the man that I am
