                           If I Only Had A Brain

                                                              Wizard of Oz


               D              D2+
       I could while away the hours
          D/F#             Em
       Conferrin' with the flowers
          D                D2+   D
       Consultin' with the rain,
              G           Em
       And my head I'd be scratchin'
                A                  A7
       While my thoughts were busy hatchin'
            D          D2+   D  A
       If I only had a brain

       I'd unravel every riddle
       For any individ'le
       In trouble or in pain.
       With the thoughts I'll be thinkin'
       I could be another Lincoln
            D                D7
       If I only had a brain

                        G                F#m
                    Oh, I could tell you why
                        Em               D
                    The ocean's near the shore
                            F#                F#7           Bm  Bm/A
                    I could think of things I never thunk before
                                 E  E7               A  add4
                    And then I'd sit, and think some more

       I would not be just a nothin'
       My head all full of stuffin'
       My heart all full of pain.
       I would dance and be merry
       Life would be a ding-a-derry
            D          D2+    D
       If I only had a brain...
