IF TEARDROPS WERE PENNIES
(C. Butler)

cho: [C]If teardrops were pennies and [F]heartaches were [C]gold
I'd have all the treasures my pockets would [G7]hold
I'd [C]be, oh, so wealthy with [F]treasures un-[C]told
If teardrops were pennies and [G7]heartaches were [C]gold.

[C]An acre of diamonds I'd [F]offer to [C]you
A solid gold mansion an airplane or [G7]two
This[C] world would be yours to [F]have and to [C]hold
If teardrops were pennies and [G7]heartaches were [C]gold.

The tears that have fallen won't buy you a thing
The heartache you caused me won't pay for a ring
The love that I wanted would not have grown cold
If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold.
