Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Brain

Verse:
D               G
I could while away the hours, conferrin' with the flowers
D
Consultin' with the rain.
    G                A
And my head I'd be scratchin' while my thoughts were busy hatchin'
   D
If I only had a brain.

Verse:
  D            G
I'd unravel every riddle for any individ'le,
  D
In trouble or in pain.
     G                A
With the thoughts I'd be thinkin' I could be another Lincoln
   D
If I only had a brain.

Bridge:
  G        D
Oh, I could tell you why
  Em   A    D
The ocean's near the shore.
    Em        A      D
I could think of things I never thunk before.
       E7         A7
And then I'd sit, and think some more.

Verse:
    D            G
I would not be just a nuffin' my head all full of stuffin'
  D
My heart all full of pain.
    G               A
I would dance and be merry, life would be a ding-a-derry,
   D
If I only had a brain.


Heart

Verse:
    D            G
When a man's an empty kettle he should be on his mettle,
  D
And yet I'm torn apart.
   G              A
Just because I'm presumin' that I could be kind-a-human,
   D
If I only had heart.

Verse:
    D             G
I'd be tender - I'd be gentle and awful sentimental
 D
Regarding Love and Art.
    G                 A
I'd be friends with the sparrow, and the boys who shoots the arrows
   D
If I only had a heart.

Bridge:
    G      D
Picture me - a balcony.
Em   A      D
Above a voice sings low.
Em      A     D
Wherefore art thou, Romeo?
     E7    A7
I hear a beat, how sweet.

Verse:
    D         G
Just to register emotion, jealousy - devotion,
  D
And really feel the part.
    G               A
I could stay young and chipper and I'd lock it with a zipper,
   D
If I only had a heart.


The Nerve

Verse:
    D              G
Life is sad, believe me, Missy, when you're born to be a sissy
  D
Without the vim and verve.
  G                A
But I could change my habits, never more be scared of rabbits
   D
If I only had the nerve.

Verse:
  D               G
I'm afraid there's no denyin' I'm just a dandelion,
 D
A fate I don't deserve.
  G               A
But I could show my prowess, be a lion not a mowess
   D
If I only had the nerve

Bridge:
  G      D
Oh I'd be in my stride,
 Em    A   D
A king down to the core
    Em        A      D
I would roar the way I've never roared before
       E7           A7
And then I'd rrrwoof! and roar some more

Verse:
    D                     G
I would show the dinosaurus, who's king around the forres'
 D
A king they better serve
  G              A
Why with my regal beezer I could be another Caesar
   D
If I only had the nerve
