written by Robles/Milchberg/Simon
performed by Simon and Garfunkel
tab transcribed by Collins Crapo
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
                               G
I'd rather be a sparrow than a snail
                                  Em
Yes I would, if I could, I surely would
 
Hmm-mmmmm
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
                              G
I'd rather be a hammer than a nail
                                  Em
Yes I would, if I only could, I surely would
 
Hmm-mmmmm
 
 
[Bridge]
 
 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
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
                               G
I'd rather be a forest than a street
                                  Em
Yes I would, if I could, I surely would
 
 
[Verse 4]
 
                               G
I'd rather feel the earth beneath my feet
                                  Em
Yes I would, if I only could, I surely would
