Only Wanna Be With You
Words and music by Hootie and The Blowfish
Transcription by Andy Citron (andycitron@hotmail.com)
and Keith Frechette (kfrechet@us.ibm.com)
This version is different from whats already on OLGA in
the following ways: 1) its written in the actual key
Hootie plays it in. 2) It attempts to show where the
'stops' or 'accents' are 3) It has chords and words for
the entire song.

| I guess if you are going to steal lyrics like Hootie did, you may as well rob from the master. Plagarizing Dylan is like trying to burglarize Fort Knox: you're just not going to get away with it. | |

| The whole thing about Bob Dylan kinda pisses me off. I am a huge fan of both and I found that the whole "Tangled Up in Blue"/"Idiot Wind reference was fantastic. Shame on Bobby for not being so cool. ; ) | |

| First, even the great artists borrow lyrics. Point in case: Led Zeppelin. It's not such a bad thing, and the reference can be appreciated by fans from both. Second, please don't be a troll. If you have nothing usefull to say, don't waste everyone else's time. On the meaning, I think this one's pretty straight-forward. It's just a simple opposites-attract kind of relationship. But despite how different they are and how they're looking for different things, he couldn't ask for anything better. | |

| I like both too. Dylan was cited as the source at the beginning of the verse. Why is that a problem? | |

| I love this song. It's pretty much saying we don't compliment each other, we barely get along, but i love you anyway and want to be with you. it almost automatically makes you happier than u were before. i personally like the line about how the dolphins make him cry. :) | |

| Dylan gets royalties b/c the melody is similar to "tangled up in blue" and they lifted an entire verse from "idiot wind" ...they thought it was okay because they cited their sources properly and the melody was different enough...dylan said nuh-uh, i basically wrote this song, gimme my money...they weren't gonna argue w/ dylan, so they gave him his money | |
