If I ever get to Saginaw again,

A locale that's somewhat off the beaten track.

Get to see the girl I never saw again

Who must know why I have never ventured back.

We we young,
Bm Em
And so alive

Become my very own as she did then,

If I ever get to Saginaw again.

Verse
G Bm Em C
If I ever get to Saginaw again,
G D G
It won't be in Spring with meadows turning green.
Bm Em C
It won't be to tangle with the law again.
G
And it won't be with someone only seventeen,
G
Who gave her love,
Bm Em
And made me hers.
C
And when you find the one you're dreaming of
Who thinks to ask, "How old is love?",
D
Not "when"
G
You may never get to Saginaw again.

Verse
G Bm Em C
If I ever get to Saginaw again
G D G
I will get to see son who bears my name.
Bm C
And perhaps I'll quietly withdraw again

When I see the little man that he became.
G
And how I yearn
Bm Em
To watch him grow.
C
A father's love is maybe all it takes
D
To not repeat those sad mistakes of men
D
If I ever get to Saginaw again
