D D/C# D/B G

[Verse 1]
            D              D/C#              
If I had it my way, I’d be watching your eyes
          D/B                   G 
Turn from brown to hazel right now
D              D/C#                  
Way they did on the front porch swing
         D/B           
When the sky turned red
             G          
Watching the sun go down
D              D/C#         
Be a field full of fireflies
              D/B                G
Watching this lost time making up
D              D/C#                    D/BG
You’d be in my arms, we’d still be in love
            D     D/C# D/B G
If I had it my way
            D     D/C# D/B G
If I had it my way

[Verse 2]
            D              D/C#      
If I had it my way, I would blink and
          D/B                   G
We’d disappear somewhere somehow
D              D/C#                   D/B       
Have a little bit of red wine poured into coffee
                  G             
Cups watching the stars come out
D                     D/C#     
We’d have an Al Green record on
D/B                   G         
Dance a little by the fire place
D              D/C#                  D/B G
We’d make our love then we’d just lay
            D     D/C# D/B G
If I had it my way

[Chorus]
A                                
Call me up and say I need you now
      G                   D
And I can't go another day
A                                
Say you're all I ever think about
             G                    D   
Now I'd give anything to see your face
Bm               A  
You'd say I miss you
        G                                Em  
I'd say I don't know how much more I can take
                    G  
You'd say I'm on my way
            D     D/C# D/B G
If I had it my way
            D     D/C# D/B G
If I had it my way

[Verse 3]
            D     
If I had it my way
       D/C#               D/B                G
I'd be losin' feeling in my left arm right now
D                    D/C#       
Try like hell not to wake you up
             D/B         
While you're laying on me
       G                
On the living room couch
D                     D/C#  
Have a John Wayne western on
         D/B                    G
That we wouldn't watchin' anyway
D                     D/C#               D/B  
Girl I swear I would stay right there for days
G          D     D/C# D/B G
If I had it my way

[Chorus]
A                                
Call me up and say I need you now
      G                   D
And I can't go another day
A                                
Say you're all I ever think about
             G                    D   
Now I'd give anything to see your face
Bm               A  
You'd say I miss you
G (Walk down)                    Em
I'd say I don't know how much more I can take
                    G  
You'd say I'm on my way
            D     D/C# D/B G
If I had it my way

[Outro]
            D     
If I had it my way
        D/C#               D/B                G  D
I could just lean in and kiss your lips right now
