Johnny Cash - I Would Like To See You Again guitar tab
I Would Like to See you Again
Performed by Johnny Cash
A long time ago in dog years,
i don't know what album
No capo necessary, unless you just want one... suit yerself...
Lead in in "C" (Kind of a "jang, jang-a-langa-langa; jang,
jang-a-langa-langa" moderate beat... keep that tempo throughout.)
(Remember, this is a man's song, written for men, about a woman who
coulda been here today fetchin' me a beer while i sit and pick this here
guitar, if she hadn't a got all uppity and run off with that other
fella. And dangit i LIVED through all that stuff her lawyer pulled on
me! If i ever git my hands on THAT little so-and-so i'll SHOW him some
community property! i can play TAPS on this guitar, too! Anyway, she's
gone, it's over, and there's guitars that need pickin'...)
Verse 1
F C
I was sittin' here thinkin' about old times,
F G C
some old times, some old friends...
F C
When sudden-ly it crossed my mind,
F G C
that I would like to see you a-gain.
Verse 2
F C
It's funny how an old flame comes back,
F G C
come on back, make you blue...
F C
but I just saw a picture of a railroad track,
F G C
and some old shack, and me and you.
Chorus
F G C
The years have come and gone,
F G C
and a whole lot has happened since then
F G C F
but to-night babe your mem'ry's awf'ly strong on my mind...
G C
and i would like to see you a-gain.
Verse 3
F C
Remember how we used to walk and talk,
F G C
walk and talk, holdin' hands...
F C
We said we loved each other i recall,
F G C
we made a lot of future plans
Verse 4
F C
I guess I'd better straighten out my mind,
F G C
straighten it out, and go to bed...
F C
and pray that i don't dream about old times,
F G C
some old times, gone and dead.
Chorus
