Ide Rather Be With You Chords

(ver. 1)
Terry Callier

verse 1
        G             Am    Bm7         Cmaj7 
I could take my guitar  and  hit the road 
                Bm    Am
try to be a star
Am                            G
That sort of thing just don't appeal to me
            G                 Am
I could play some one night stands
              Bm7         Cmaj7   Bm
Travelin' light a one man band
Bm                Am           G
But I know  this is where I'de rather be
              Bm                              Am
It's your bright sunshine that lifted all the shadows off my 
 
mind
                 Bm                         Am
Yeah your sweet love led me to a brighter day
        Bm                          Am
So you never have to worry bout me leaving you behind
         Bm                    Am      D7
Wait and see I won't ever turn away
 
(chorus)
      G                      Am
Cause you made my dream come true 
     Bm7                     Cmaj7             Bm       Am      
And gave my life new meaning too and more than anything
Am                 G          Am
I'de rather be with you
Am                        Bm                  Am
Well I'de rather be with you babe if I could
                    Bm7         Am
I'de rather be with you
Am                           Bm                     Am
You know I'de rather be with you babe surely would
Am              D7               G       Am   Bm7  Cmaj7  Bm   
You know I'de rather be with you
 
Am  G
 
verse 2
         G                   Am   Bm7                         Cm7
Now this ghetto life is hard      in our concrete front yard
         Bm     Am                    G
Nothing grows except a single tree to mark our place
            G                   Am          Bm7
But the moment that I'm with you  girl your light and love
       Cmaj7      Bm            Am           G
Shine through and then I realize   you're my saving grace
        Bm                               Am             
I could catch that old greyhound head up north and bum 
around
                Bm                     Am
Watch the sun set on the San Francisco Bay
        Bm                         Am 
But you mean so much to me I could never put you down
                  Bm                    Am     D7
That would be to big a price for me to pay
 
(chorus)
          G                  Am            Bm7
Cause you made my dream come true and gave my life new 
         Cmaj7
meaning too
               Bm       Am                     G    Am
And more than anything     I'de rather be with you
Am                  Bm                   Am   
I'de rather be with you babe if I could
                            Bm      Am
I'de rather be with you
Am                  Bm                     Am
I'de rather be with you babe surely would
      D7                 G      Am  Bm7  Cmaj7  Bm  
I'de rather be with you 
Am   G
 
(closing refrain, slow)
       Am7               G       
I'de rather be with you
       Am7               G
I'de rather be with you 

 
I got tired of not ever seeing any of this great, and practically unknown,
artist's songs on any tab and chord sites. It's my first time posting songs.
Hope it's helpful. Comments, corrections, suggestions, welcome.
 
All my own work.
