If I Were You

G  C  G  C  G  D  G

          G                         C
You were standin' at my front door
        D            G   C   D
When I came home tonight
            G                             C
And I could tell by the look you gave me
                     D
You were needin' my advice
     G           C                             D
You say you want more out of life than he can give you
                 Em            C
As a tear rolls down your face
           G
But girl, I've seen the way he looks at you
      D                           G             D
And I know someone who'd gladly take your place.

[Chorus:]
           G       C                 G
If I were you I'd run back home tonight
           C              G           D
Tell him everything's all right Yeah, I know what I'd do
          G        C            G
If I were you I'd never let him go
     C               G              D
I'd have someone to hold My whole life through.
            G   C   G   C  G  D  G
If I were you.

               G                                    C
You shouldn't think you're missin' out on something
             D              G    C   D
Because you wear a wedding band
                G
'Cause I can't seem to find somebody
            C                          D
Who wants more than just a one night stand
     G          C
You know this single life I'm livin'
 D                        Em     C
Ain't all it's cracked up to be
           G                       D
So you've come to the wrong place
                        G      D
If what you want is sympathy.

           G       C                 G
If I were you I'd run back home tonight
           C              G           D
Tell him everything's all right Yeah, I know what I'd do
          G        C            G
If I were you I'd never let him go
     C               G              D
I'd have someone to hold My whole life through.

           G       C                 G
If I were you I'd run back home tonight
           C              G           D
Tell him everything's all right Yeah, I know what I'd do
           G        C            G
