Capo 4th fret


Intro:
D G Em A7
D G Em A7


Verse 1:
  D        G          Em      A7
You walk by the magazines sitting on the rack at the CVS
     D        G          Em         A7
One more sad movie star divorce, three hundred died in an airplane wreck
    D            G         Em    A7
And you think of all the people suffering and you bury that pain
  D        G          Em      A7
But you can tell me everything and we’ll ride on that wave

Chorus 1:
     D         G        Em           A7
If I was king of the world, you’d be my girl, you wouldn’t have to shed one single
D        G         Em          A7
Tear unless you wanted to, 'cause yeah I know what it’s like
     D         G     Em        A7
If I was king of the world, yeah girl, we could ride a Greyhound all the
D/F#     G   Em             A7
Way to the Galapagos, stay for the rest of our lives

Whoa whoa whoa whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa whoa whoa whoa


Verse 2:
D         G       Em           A7
Dad hit you on the hand just for holding your chopsticks wrong
     D          G       Em         A7
Then your mom locked you in a shed and Uncle Sam dropped an atom bomb
      D         G         Em     A7
But you’re not alone, you can let it go and just weep on my breast
  D         G          Em    A7
And cover me with your tenderness and that pain will pass


Chorus 2:
     D         G        Em           A7
If I was king of the world, you’d be my girl, you wouldn’t have to shed one single
D        G         Em          A7
Tear unless you wanted to, 'cause yeah I know what it’s like
     D         G     Em        A7
If I was king of the world, yeah girl, we could ride a Greyhound all the
D/F#     G   Em             A7

D       G       Em       A7
Whoa whoa whoa whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa whoa whoa whoa


Bridge:
D   Bm   Em    A7
 We are the small fish
D   Bm   Em A7
 We swim together
D   Bm    Em  A7
 No Prozac or Valium, we’ll
D    Bm    Em A7
Face tsunamis together


Chorus 3:
