[Intro 1]
[G][D]
[G]
[C][D][G]

[Verse 1]
I'd [G]rather
be a [C]rodeo clown
Than a burnt out rhinestone cowboy
in a two bit tinsel [G]town
I'd rather help somebody up
than put somebody [D]down

[Interlude 1]
I'd rather be a rodeo clown
[G]

[Verse 2]
[G]It was nineteen sixty- six
when I finally hit [D]LA
I was living on dreams and swizzle stick
[A]s and kin[D]da stumbling on my way[G]
But the good Lord looks after fools and
drunks and I finally found [C]the sun
But [D]I had only won the battle Lord
the war had just [G]begun

[Verse 3]
I'd [G]rather be a [F]rodeo [C]clown
Than a burnt out rhinestone cowboy
in a two bit tinsel [G]town
I'd rather pick somebody up than
kick 'em while they're [D]down
Lord I'd rather be a rodeo clown
[G]

[Verse 4]
Well I [A]like to see you when you
laugh but I love when we [E]cry
I will tear your IOU's in half if you'll
just look me in the [A]eye
Cause truth and love and loyalty are
the only things worth [D]while
And I'd [E]trade this whole damn town
away for just one honest [A]smile

[Verse 5]
I'd [A]rather be a rodeo [D]clown
Than a burnt out rhinestone cowboy
in a two bit tinsel [A]town
I'd rather make somebody laugh
than make somebody [E]frown
Lord I'd rather be a rodeo clown
[A]

[Verse 6]
I'd rather help somebody up
than put somebody [E]down

[Outro 1]
What I'd give to be a rodeo clown
[A][E][A][E][A]
