The World Is A Wonderful Place by Richard Thompson
The World Is A Wonderful Place
Intro:
Fm F#m Fm F#m
Fm F#m
Lovers pair off and they fall into bed
F#m B C#m C#m/B
The same old lies trip off the tongue
G#m A D Bm
A few lonely hearts stand and prop up the room
G C
the night is young
Envy the bodies asleep on the floor
Dreaming some comfortable dream
And envy the drunk as he falls through the door
For the world is drunk I see
Chorus
C#m
You live and you die
B
there's no reason why
A G#m C#m
The world is a wonderful place
C#m
The poor live in pain
B
They're sick and insane
A G#m C#m
Ah, the world is a wonderful place
Bridge
B C#m
How does it feel to be nothing
B A
How does it feel to be small
C#m G#m
Oh hard on that pine, It's the end of the line
F#m B C#m
Ah, the world is a wonderful place
Another year older and nothing to show
Is this what I grew up to be?
Oh you birthday boy here's a pat on the back
YouUre a sight to see
Am I just a clown like the fools gathered here
Am I nothing special at all
If this is called living, IUm folding my hand
IUm sick of the same brick wall
Chorus
Bridge
