To Have You Around

C  G C  D C  C

[Verse One]

    D          C
We won't say a word — unless we write it all down
       G         C
But I don't want nothing, but to have you around
G                C           D           C
Words, they get lost between me and the sound
              D          C               D       Cmaj7   C
That's why I don't need nothing, but to have you around


D     G      C          D   G  D             C
Oh-Oh-Oh, I wait for a gho-o-o-st — an empty chair

[Verse Two]

    G            C       D          C
If they raise me up, or they cut me down
      D          C               D           C
Hey I don’t care nothing, but to have you around
      D          C             D              C
And I don't even mind if I'm a friend or your clown—
        D          C               D          C
Cause I don't want nothing, but to have you around


D     G      C          D   G  D             C
Oh-Oh-Oh, I wait for a gho-o-o-st — an empty chair

C      D        C
       Ooh-ooh-ooh
D             C
Ooh-ooh-oh-oh-oh

[Verse Three]

C                         D             C
You cut the cloth of the skin where I’m bound
             D           C              D          Cmaj7  C
That’s why I don’t want nothing, but to have you around
             D           C       Cmaj7  D          Cmaj7
That’s why I don’t want nothing, but to have you around
             D           Cmaj7          D          Cmaj7
That's why I don't want nothing, but to have you around

D           Cmaj7
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Cmaj7       C
Ooh-ooh-ooh-Ooh-ooh-ooh
C     Cmaj7  C
Ooh-Ooh-Ooh
