[Intro]
Cm Fm
Yeah, yeah...
Dm G7
If I didn't have you
Cm Fm Dm G7
[Verse 1]
Cm Fm Dm7
If I didn't have you to hold me tight
G7
Cm Fm Dm7
If I didn't have you to lie with at night
G7
Cm Fm
If I didn't have you to share my sighs
Dm G
And to kiss me and dry my tears when I cry
[Chorus]
Ab
Well I
Bb
Really think that I would
Have somebody else
Cm Fm Dm G7
Cm
If I didn't have you
Fm G G7
Someone else would do
[Verse 2]
Cm Fm G
Your love is one in a million
Cm Fm
You couldn't buy it at any price
Dm G7
Cm Fm
But of the nine-point-nine-nine-nine-hundred-thousand other possible loves
Dm G7
Statistically, some of them would be equally nice
Ab Bb
Or maybe not as nice but, say, smarter than you
Ab Bb
Or dumber but better at sport or... f**king... tracing?
[Chorus]
Ab
I'm just saying
I really think that I would
Bb
Probably
Have somebody else
Cm Fm Dm G7
Cm Fm G G7
If I didn't have you someone else would do
[Verse 3]
Cm Fm
If I were a rich man
Dm G7
Fiddle diddle diddle diddle diddle diddle diddle dee
Cm Fm
I guess I would be with a surgeon or a model
Dm G7
Or a rellie of the royals or a Kennedy
Cm Fm
Or a nymphomaniacal exhibitionist heiress
Dm G7
To a large chain of hotels
Cm Fm
If I were a rich man, maybe I would fiddle
Dm G7 Cm
Fiddle diddle diddle with the rich man girls
[Bridge 1]
Cm Fm
I'm not saying that I'd not love you
Dm G7
If I was wealthy or handsome
Cm Fm
But realistically, there's lots of fish in the sea
Dm G7
And if I had a different rod, I would conceivably land some
Cm Fm
Even though I am fiscally consistently pitiable
G
And considerably less 'Brad Pitt' than 'Brad pitiful'
Am I really so poor and ugly that you think
Ab
Only you could possibly love me?
[Chorus]
And I Really think that I would
Bb
Probably
Have somebody else
Cm Fm Dm G7
Cm Fm Dm G7
If I didn't have you someone else would do
[Bridge 2]
Cm Fm
Look, I'm not undervaluing what we've got when I say
Dm G7
That, given the role chaos inevitably plays
Cm Fm
In the inherently flawed notion of fate
Dm G7
It's abstruse to deduce that I found my soulmate
Cm
At the age of 17
Fm Dm
It's just mathematically unlikely that at a university in Perth
G7
I happened to stumble on the one girl on Earth
Cm
Specifically designed for me
Fm
And if I may conjecture a further objection
G
Love is nothing to do with destined perfection
G7
The connection is strengthened
Ab
The affection simply grows over time
Ab
Like a flower
Bb
Or a mushroom
Or a guinea pig
Ab
Or a vine
Or a sponge
Or bigotry
Bb
...or a banana
Ab
And love is made more powerful
Bb
By the ongoing drama of shared experience
Ab Bb
And the synergy of a kind of symbiotic empathy, or something
[Verse 4]
Cm Fm
So I trust it would go without saying
Dm G7
That I would feel really very sad
Cm Fm
If tomorrow you were to fall off something high
Dm G7
Or catch something bad
Ab
But I'm just saying
Bb
I don't think you're special
Ab
I mean, I think you're special
Bb
But, you fall within a bell curve
[Chorus]
Ab
I mean, I'm just saying I
Really think that I would
Bb
Probably
Have somebody else
[Bridge 3]
Cm Fm G
I think you are unique and beautiful
Cm Fm G
You make me happy just by being around
Cm Fm
But objectively you would have to agree
Dm G
That baby when I found you
Dm G7
Options were relatively thin on the ground
Ab Bb
You're lovely but there must be girls as lovely as you
Ab Bb Ab
Or maybe more open to spanking, or table tennis...
[Chorus]
I really think that I would
Bb
Probably
Have somebody else
[Bridge 4]
Cm Fm G
I mean I reckon it's pretty likely that if for example
G7
My first girlfriend, Jackie, hadn't dumped me
Cm Fm G
After I kissed Winston's ex-girlfriend Neah
G7
At Steph's party back in 1993
Cm Fm G
Enough variables would probably have been altered
G7
By the absence of that event
Cm Fm G
To have meant the advent
G7
Of a tangential narrative in which we don't meet
Cm Fm
Which is to say there exists a theoretical
Dm G G7
Hypothetical parallel life
Cm Fm
Where what is is not as it is
Dm G7
And I am not your husband and you are not my wife
Cm Fm
And I am a stuntman living in LA
Dm G7
Married to a small blonde Portuguese skier
Cm
Who when she's not training
Fm
Does abstract painting
Dm
Practises yoga
G7
And brews her own beer
Cm Fm
And really likes making home movies
Dm G7
And suffers neck down alopecia
[Outro]
Ab
But with all my heart and all my mind
Bb
I know one thing is true
Ab
I have just one life and just one love
Bb
And my love, that love is you
Fm Gm
And if it wasn't for you
Ab
Darling, you
I really think that I would
Bb
Possibly
Have somebody else
Cm Fm Dm G7
Cm Fm
If I didn't have you, do do do do
Dm G7
Someone else would surely do
Cm G7 Cm
Ba doo ba do ba ba doo oh yeah
