If I ever get to Saginaw again,
             G+G       D MajorD   G+G
A augmentedA locale that's somewhat off the beaten track.
           B minorBm    E minorEm   C majorC
Get to see the girl I never saw again
             G+G
Who must know why I have never ventured back.
G+G
We we young,
    B minorBm   E minorEm
And so alive
     G+G        C majorC
And now I wonder if she'd cling to me,
        G+G       D MajorD
Become my very own as she did then,
             G+G
If I ever get to Saginaw again.

B minorBm E minorEm C majorC

Verse

G+G        B minorBm   E minorEm   C majorC
If I ever get to Saginaw again,
              G+G        D MajorD    G+G
It won't be in Spring with meadows turning green.
           B minorBm      E minorEm   C majorC
It won't be to tangle with the law again.
               G+G
And it won't be with someone only seventeen,
G+G
Who gave her love,
      B minorBm   E minorEm
And made me hers.
       C majorC
And when you find the one you're dreaming of

Who thinks to ask, "How old is love?",
D MajorD
Not "when"
               G+G
You may never get to Saginaw again.

B minorBm E minorEm C majorC

G+G        B minorBm   E minorEm  C majorC
If I ever get to Saginaw again
         G+G        D MajorD    G+G
I will get to see son who bears my name.
         B minorBm            C majorC
And perhaps I'll quietly withdraw again
           G+G
When I see the little man that he became.
G+G
And how I yearn
       B minorBm  E minorEm
To watch him grow.
      C majorC
A augmentedA father's love is maybe all it takes
                  D MajorD
To not repeat those sad mistakes of men
D MajorD
If I ever get to Saginaw again
