If I Learned To Play The Violin

E  D  C#m  Am  F#m  B

[Verse 1]
     E                      G#m
If I learned to play the violin
      Bm                   C#
And I traded my old guitar in
           F#m
Would your parents still object
         Am
Or would I win their respect
     B
If I learned to play the violin?
        E                  G#m
I would even go and cut my hair
          Bm                              C#
Though my friends would point and say I'm square
            F#m
Girl, would your society
           Am
Still look down their nose at me
     B
If I learned to play the violin?

[Bridge]
D
 I'd give up my beat-ways
A
Take up more discreet ways
Am                             E
All you've got to do is ask me to
D                 C#7   N.C.
Whoa-oa, just ask me to

[Verse 2]
        F#                   A#m
And I'd learn to play the violin
        C#m                     D#
Turn my back on everything I've been
       G#m
I'd be like somebody new
         Bm
But, not change my love for you
     C#
If I learned to play the violin

[Interlude]
F#  E  F#  E

[Bridge]
D
 I'd give up my beat-ways
A
Take up more discreet ways
Am                             E
All you've got to do is ask me to
D              C#7       N.C.
Whoa-oa, just ask me to

[Outro]
        F#                   A#m
And I'd learn to play the violin
         F#                   A#m
Yes, I'd learn to play the violin
E       F#                   A#m      E
And I'd learn to play the violin, the violin
         F#                   A#m      E  F#  A#m E F#  A#m E F#  A#m
Yes, I'd learn to play the violin, the violin
