| Em | G | | I'd rather be a sparrow than a | snail |
|
| Em | Yes I would, if I could, I surely | would |
|
|
|
I'd rather be a hammer than a nail |
|
Yes I would, if I only could, I surely would |
|
|
|
| | C | | | Away, I'd rather sail away |
|
| | G | | Like a | swan that's here and gone |
|
| | C | | A | man gets tied up to the ground |
|
| | G | | He gives the | world it's saddest sound |
|
| | Em | | It's saddest | sound, hmm-mmmmm |
|
|
I'd rather be a forest than a street |
|
Yes I would, if I could, I surely would |
|
|
I'd rather feel the earth beneath my feet |
|
Yes I would, if I only could, I surely would |
