Nine Lives

G I would like to take a trip Em Round the world on a sailing ship Am A simple boat built just for two D We'd set sail just me and you G And we'd go round and then when Em We reach our destination Am We'd start over, can't you see D You're the only one for me G And if I had nine Em If I, if I had nine lives Am I would live them D G I would live them all with you G For life two we would build a home Em Lots of kids and garden gnomes Am Pitter patter of the feet D Running up and down the street G For number three, I'd work a lot Em That's what I was always taught Am We'd buy all the things we need D For a healthy family G For life four I would read and read Em How I love the library Am Every now and then I'd look D D7 For your face among the books G And if I had nine Em If I, if I had nine lives Am I would live them D I would live them all with you G And if I, if I had nine lives Em I would live them all with you Am You're my one and only love D G Nine lives would not be enough with you G For lives five, six, seven and eight Em We'd try to alleviate Am Sounds of suffering and the cries D Of hunger, pain and forlorn eyes G We'd help people everywhere Em Show them that we really care Am For a simple twist or two D We'd be walking in their shoes G For life nine we would be somewhere Em On a pair of rocking chairs Am We'd be happy, slightly grey D Isn't it a lovely day G And if I'm lucky you will bake Em Me a tasty birthday cake Am When I turn age one-oh-four D I will wish for nine lives more G And if I had nine Em If I, if I had nine lives Am I would live them D I would live them all with you G And if I, if I had nine lives Em I would live them all with you Am You're my one and only love D G Nine lives would not be enough with you
