Tell Lorrie I Love Her  Keith Whitley

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
With[C]out a drink of water a[G]round
On [C]my knees and hands in that [G]white, scorching sand
With the hot Sahara sun beating [D]down
If [G]I could be granted my wishes
If [C]anything I want could come [G]true
[C]I know that it might sound [G]funny
But [D]here's what I'd want you to [G]do
Chorus:
Tell Lorrie I [C]love her
Tell Lorrie I [G]need her
Tell her [D]everything would be okay
If I could just [G]see her
Tell Lorrie I [C]love her
Tell Lorrie I [G]need her
If I [Am]leave this old world
Tell her [D]she's the only girl for [G]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.
