Drinks And Jewelry Lyrics & Chords By Billy Falcon

if I could I'd bottle up your tears
and turn them to sweet water
build a wine cellar and let it age for years
what a sweet drink that would be
if I could capture all your charms
get some golden thread to string them on
that would make such fine jewelry
then I would spend my days
selling drinks and jewelry
all night and all day
I know that I could make a million
selling drinks and jewelry
man I'd have it my way

if I could capture what your sweet eyes see
and put it down in black and white
for a year or two I'd do it every day
get a peace prize for the book I'd write
every day, might take a while
then I'd paint my masterpiece
and I would spend my days

selling drinks and jewelry
all night and all day
I know that I could make a million
selling books and paintings
man I'd have it my way
if only I could make a million
if I could...

I'd build you a boat
with the reaps from that willow tree
and I'd take the sheets from our bed
and cut us a sail to sail away
to where I'd spend my days

selling drinks and jewelry
all night and all day
I know that I could make a million
selling drinks and jewelry
man I'd have it my way
if only I could make a million
selling drinks and jewelry
and books and paintings
drinks and jewelry
if I could...

if I could I'd bottle up your tears
