from the album _Greatest_Hits_
written by Keith Whitley

This is a beautiful song that Keith recorded at his home studio in 1987.  He
fingerpicks the song, but I can't figure out the pattern he uses.  If you know
how to do it, please let me know.  Anyway, here's the chords.  Listen to the
recording to get the timing down correctly.

1st verse:
G
If I were alone in the desert
    C                     G
Without a drink of water around
   C                          G
On my knees and hands in that white, scorching sand
                                D
With the hot Sahara sun beating down
   G
If I could be granted my wishes
   C                          G
If anything I want could come true
C                          G
I know that it might sound funny
    D                           G
But here's what I'd want you to do

Chorus:
              C
Tell Lorrie I love her
              G
Tell Lorrie I need her
         D
Tell her everything would be okay
                G
If I could just see her
              C
Tell Lorrie I love her
              G
Tell Lorrie I need her
     Am
If I leave this old world
         D                       G
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.
