Introdução: A E7 D9 A Fdim A Bm7 F#7 Bm7 E7 
 
A F#m Cdim 
If I loved you,  
 A   E7  D9 A  Fdim  A    Bm7    F#7 
Time and  again I   would try to say 
D9      Cdim         A    D9  E7 
All I'd want you to know; 
A F#m Cdim 
If I loved you,  
  A    E7     D9   A  Fdim A  Bm7     F#7 
Words    wouldn't come in  an    easy  way 
  Bm  Bm7/E Bm5-/7      Cdim A     
'Round in    circles    I'd go. 
Bridge: 
F#m        Bm7                G#7         C#7 
Longing to tell you, but afraid and shy, 
F#m        Bm7    Bm7/E    G   B7 E7 
I'd let my golden chances pass me by. 
 A        F#m       Cdim 
Soon you'd leave me,  
A   E7   D9   A Fdim  A  Bm7     F#7 
Off you would go in  the mist of day 
Bm   Bm7 Bm5-/7    Cdim  A 
Never,    never    to know 
Bm  F#  D9 
How I'd love you 
Bm7 E7/9-  A 
If    I loved you.
