If The Stars Were Mine chords by Melody Gardot

Chords with lyrics

G+G                    Em13Em13
If the stars were mine I'd give them all to you
Em13Em13
I'd pluck them down right from the sky And leave it only blue
D9D9
I would never let the sun forget To shine upon your face
G+G                D9D9
So when others would have rain clouds You'd have only sunny days
G+G                    Em13Em13
If the stars were mine I'd tell you what I'd do
Db7Db7   C7C7    B7B7   Bb7Bb7   D7D7         G+G
I'd put the stars right in a jar And give 'em all to you

G+G                    Em13Em13
If the birds were mine I'd tell them when to sing
Em13Em13
I'd make them sing a sonnet When your telephone would ring
D9D9
I would put them there inside the square Whenever you went out
G+G              D9D9
So there'd always be sweet music Whenever you walk about
G+G                    Em13Em13
If the birds were mine I'd tell you what I'd do
Db7Db7   C7C7    B7B7   Bb7Bb7   D7D7           G+G
I'd teach the birds such lovely words And make 'em sing for you
Db7Db7   C7C7    B7B7   Bb7Bb7   D7D7           G+G
I'd teach the birds such lovely words And make 'em sing for you

1x Verse instrumental

G+G                   Em13Em13
If the world was mine I'd paint it gold and green
Em13Em13
I'd make the oceans orange For a brilliant color scheme
D9D9
I would color all the mountains Make the sky forever blue
G+G              D9D9
So the world would be a painting And I'd live inside with you
G+G                   Em13Em13
If the world was mine I'd tell you what I'd do
Db7Db7   C7C7    B7B7   Bb7Bb7   D7D7          G+G
I'd wrap the world in ribbons And then give it all to you
Db7Db7   C7C7    B7B7   Bb7Bb7   D7D7
I'd teach the birds such lovely words And make 'em sing for you
Db7Db7   C7C7    B7B7   Bb7Bb7   D7D7           G+G
I'd put those stars right in a jar and Give them all to you
