1st verse:
SOL
If I were alone in the desert
DO SOL
Without a drink of water around
DO SOL
On my knees and hands in that white, scorching sand
RE
With the hot Sahara sun beating down
SOL
If I could be granted my wishes
DO SOL
If anything I want could come true
DO SOL
I know that it might sound funny
RE SOL
But here's what I'd want you to do
Chorus
DO
Tell Lorrie I love her
SOL
Tell Lorrie I need her
RE
Tell her everything would be okay
SOL
If I could just see her
DO
Tell Lorrie I love her
SOL
Tell Lorrie I need her
LAm
If I leave this old world
RE SOL
Tell her she's the only girl for me
2nd verse:
If I were adrift on the ocean
A vessel with no sails or steam
Floating aimlessly on and endless sea
Hopelessly lost it would seem
If all of the fish in the water
Could echo my last dying plea
I know you might not understand it
But here's what I'd want it to be
(chorus)
If I leave this old world
Tell her she's the only girl for me
It's too bad Lorrie (Morgan) didn't believe him; if she had
Keith Whitley might still be with us today.
