Canyon George - Who Would You Be guitar tab

Intro: D, A, D, Bm7, A, G

D

We were sitting 'round the table

Bm7 D

At the Tuesday poker game

G D

Solvin' all the problems of the world

Bm7 G

Tryin' to draw an inside straight

D

When Jimmy posed the question

Bm7 D

As he played a pair of kings

G D

"If you could be anyone in this whole world

A (stop) D G D

Who would you be"

Chorus:

D A

Would you be Elvis shakin' up Memphis

Bm7 G

Makin' all the young girls scream

G D

Would you make a speech that would change the world

Bm7 G

Like Martin Luther King

G D A

Go down in history like Abe Lincoln

Bm7 G

'Cause you set a country free

G D Bm7

If you could be anyone in this whole world

G A (stop)

Tell me, who would you be

D, A, D, Bm7, A, G

(Same progression as above)

Hank said "I'd be a cowboy

Someone like John Wayne"

Donny said, "Hey pilgrim

Blow that cigar smoke the other way"

Said he'd make a million dollars

Pitchin' in the major leagues

Then he stared straight into Paul's bloodshot eyes

And said, "Who would you be"

Chorus:

Would you be John Lennon, can you imagine

Givin' hope with just a song

Would you be the Babe pointin' that bat

Saying, "This one's going long"

Maybe Moses partin' the waters

Saying, "Children, follow me"

If you could be anyone in this whole world

Tell me, who would you be

G

Well, I knew those boys would roll their eyes

D

When they heard what I had to say

G Bm7

But I shuffled the cards, said, "Dueces wild"

A (stop) G

And I told them anyway

Chorus:

I'd be a father who had all the answers

To every question my kids had

I'd earn every word on that coffee cup

That said, "World's Greatest Dad"

Be a perfect husband to that woman

Who means everything to me

If I could be anyone in this whole world

That's who I'd be

D, A, D, Bm7, A, G

Yeah, that's who I'd be

Outro: D, A, D, Bm7, A, G
