Id Rather Have You

    A              D  A       A           E     A
I'd rather go to a rodeo then shoppin' on Rodeo Drive
A                     D          A                 E                      A
I'd rather lay on the grass with you and watch the planes than to have to fly
    D
I'd rather have you than Ringling and Barnum & Baily Circus with all three rings
        D
And the high trapeez and the lady on the horse and the train that carries them thru
A                                          E               A
Stacked up against all the gold in Africa, I'd rather have you
A                     D        A                        E    A
I'd rather share a hotdog with you than dinner with the President
                       D        A              E        A
Offer me a castle on a mountain top, I'll take you in a tent
D
I'd rather be alone with you than to have my very own satellite
   D
To talk and sing and say everything to everybody, do whatever I wanna do
       A                            E               A
And to be number one on Who Is Who, I'd rather have you

[Chorus]
D                                    A
I don't crave applause and praise or holidays with my way paid
D                                  A
I don't want to incorporate nor to be top rate nor a head of state
D                                          A
I don't want to play the digery-do nor the sitar or the kazoo
                   D          A   E               A
Just the two of us alone will do, I'd rather have you

[Verse]
    A                          D           A                              E   A
I'd rather have tickets to the movies with you than the one that wins the lottery
                   D          A                       E        A
Rather walk on the beach with you than to own all the ships at sea
    D
I'd rather have you than the QE2 and the Eiffel Tower, the Royal Jewels

And the Brooklyn Bridge, and the toll pay to go thru
    A                             E               A
And throw in a Texas well or two, I'd rather have you

[Chorus]
D                                    A
I don't crave applause and praise or holidays with my way paid
D                                  A
I don't want to incorporate nor to be top rate nor a head of state
D                                          A
I don't want to play the digery-do nor the sitar or the kazoo
                   D          A   E               A
Just the two of us alone will do, I'd rather have you
