I'd Rather Have You Johnny Cash
written by John R. Cash
3/4/06
I'd [A]rather go to a [D]rod[A]eo then [A]shoppin' on [E]Rodeo [A]Drive
[A]I'd rather lay on the [D]grass with [A]you and watch the [E]planes than to have to [A]fly
I'd [D]rather have you than Ringling and Barnum & Baily Circus with all three rings
And the [D]high trapeez and the lady on the horse and the train that carries them thru
[A]Stacked up against all the gold in Africa, [E]I'd rather have [A]you
[A]I'd rather share a hot[D]dog with [A]you than dinner with the [E]Presi[A]dent
Offer me a castle on a [D]mountain [A]top, I'll take [E]you in a [A]tent
[D]I'd rather be alone with you than to have my very own satellite
To [D]talk and sing and say everything to everybody, do whatever I wanna do
And to [A]be number one on Who Is Who, [E]I'd rather have [A]you
CHORUS:
[D]I don't crave applause and praise or [A]holidays with my way paid
[D]I don't want to incorporate nor to [A]be top rate nor a head of state
[D]I don't want to play the digery-do nor the [A]sitar or the kazoo
Just the two of us [D]alone will [A]do, [E]I'd rather have [A]you
SOLO
I'd [A]rather have tickets to the [D]movies with [A]you than the one that wins the [E]lott[A]ery
Rather walk on the [D]beach with [A]you than to own all the [E]ships at [A]sea
I'd [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
And [A]throw in a Texas well or two, [E]I'd rather have [A]you
CHORUS
OUTRO: D A D A D A D A E A
