If I Could Change The World

"I like this time of day as well as
the morning when we greet the dawn...
When we are together, I want to get up early,
make love to you, then sit on the back porch
and listen to nature...holding you in my arms..."

IF I COULD CHANGE THE WORLD
Eric Clapton

E          E6        E7     E7       E6       E

If I could reach the stars, pull one down for you.

E       E6    E7     E7           E6      E

Shinin' on my heart, so you could see the truth.

Then this love I have inside, is everything it seems

E       E6    E7    E7       E6    G#7

But for now I find, its only in my dreams

If I could be king,  even for a day.

E            E6    E7      E7          E6       E

I'd take you as my queen.  I'd have it no other way.

G# A       A6         A7         A7      A6      A

   And our love would rule, this kingdom we have made.

E             E6   E7    E7     E6      G#7

Till then I'd be a fool, wishin for the day...



          F#m G#7    C#m     F#m            G#7              C#m

And I can change the world.  I would be the sunlight in your universe

F#m                 G#7             C#m7 Cm7   Bm7

You would think our love was really some-thing good
