If Ild Just Come And Gone

C G D

[Verse 1]
            C
If I'd only come and gone
C                        D                  G
The way I've always done with summer girls before
G           C                   D                  G
Shared one night with you and never reached for more
G        D                               D
Then we 't face this long and painful righting of the wrong
G
If I'd just come and gone

[Verse 2]
C                          D                  G
And merely parked my dusty boots outside your door
G          C                 D                      G
Tracked no footprints 'cross your polished hardwood floor
G      D                               D
If I'd have left you in your doorway smilin' drowsy at the dawn
       G
If I'd just come and gone

[Verse 3]
G      C                    G
Then I'd be on a shinin' silver plane dippin' into Denver
G    C                             G
Or a schooner blowin' down The Biscayne Bay
G                D                 G
You'Cd be safely tucked away among the pleasure I'd remember
G
That might awaken with the breakin' of each new day

[Verse 4]
                    C
If you'd only stopped to read
C                           D             G
Cold hard words I carved on other bedroom walls
G             C         D                   G
And heard the mornin' coffee truths I told 'em all
G       D
I'd still be on your lips like some unfinished half-remembered song
D
You'd never have loved me if I'd just come and gone

[Outro]
       G
If I'd just come and gone
G                C
If I'd only come and gone
C               D
If I'd only come and gone
D               G
If I'd only come and gone...
