Ooh If I had you, Yeah the things that I could do

(Honey) If I had you


[Verse 1]
E           A                                   E
Now I could sing like an angel, fly just like a bird
A                                    E
Sing you the best love song you ever heard
A                               E
I could be a poet like Muhammad Ali
A                                       C#m            B    E
Float like a butterfly, sting just like a, just like a bee

Ooh If I had you, the things that I could do
         E
If I had you


[Verse 2]
E       A                               E
Now I'd go get your name tattooed on my chest
          A                                     E
Well it'd just say 'My baby, my baby, she's the best!'
A                                              E
I could be your Superman, you could be my Lois Lane
A                                          C#m         B      E
I could be a Tarzan, you could be my sweet Jane if you wanted to


   [Chorus]
E   A        E        A
Mmm If I had you, the things that I could do
         E
If I had you ,yea one more time
E   A        E                     A
Ooh If I had you, only had you,the things that I could do,Oh Yea
