****************** IF YOU COULD TOUCH HER AT ALL ******************
written by Lee Clayton
performed by Waylon Jennings.
Verse 1:
C/G F
Funny a woman can come home so wild and free
G C/G
And insist i don’t watch her undress or watch her watch me
F
And stand by the bed and shiver as if she were cold
G C/G
Just to lie down beside me and touch me as if i were gold
Chorus:
C/G F
One night of love don’t make up for six nights alone
G C/G
But i’d rather have one than none Lord,’cause i’m flesh and bone
F
Sometimes it seems that she ain’t worth the trouble at all
G C/G
But she could be worth the world if somehow you can touch her at all
Verse 2 (a tone higher):
D G
Right or wrong a woman can own any man
A D
She can take him inside her and hold his soul in her hand
G
And leave him as weary and weak as a newborn child
A D
Fighting to catch his first breath and open his eyes
Chorus bis:(a tone higher)
D G
One night of love don’t make up for six nights alone
A D
But i’d rather have one than none,I’m flesh and bone
G
Sometimes it seems that she ain’t worth the trouble at all
A D
But she could be worth the world if somehow you can touch her at all
