Em Am Em

I'd rather be a sparrow than a snail Yes I would, if I could, I surely would Hmm-mmmmm

I'd rather be a hammer than a nail Yes I would, if I only could, I surely would Hmm-mmmmm

I'd rather be a forest than a street Yes I would, if I could, I surely would Hmm-mmmmm

I'd rather feel the earth beneath my feet Yes I would, if I could, I surely would Hmm-mmmmm

Away, I'd rather sail away Like a swan that's here and gone

A man gets tied up to the ground He gives the world it's saddest sound It's saddest sound, hmm-mmmmm
