Intro: Ab – Bb – Ab – Bb – C x4
C F Em Dm
If I had the world to give
G7 C
I’d give it to you – long as you live
Em Am
Would you let it fall
G F C
or hold it all in your arms?
C F Em Dm
If I had a song to sing
G7 C
I’d sing it to you – as long as you live
Em Am G F
Lullabye – or maybe a plain serenade
G F
wouldn’t you laugh, dance, and cry
C C7
or be afraid at the trade you made?
Fmaj7 Bbmaj9
I may not have the world to give to you
Fmaj7 Bbmaj9
but maybe I have a tune or two
Fmaj7 Bbmaj9
Only if you let me be your world
Ab – Bb – Ab – Bb – C
could I ever give this world to you,
Ab – Bb – Ab – Bb – C
could I ever give this world to you
G Bb F
But I will give what love I have to give
G Bb F
I will give what love I have to give
G Bb F
I will give what love I have to give
C
long as I live
(Solo)
C F Em Dm
If I had a star to give
G7 C
I’d give it to you – long as you live
Em Am
Would you have the time
G F
to watch it shine – watch it shine
G F C
or ask for the moon and heaven too?
C
& I’d give it to you.
Fmaj7 Bbmaj9
But just now I’ve no star to spare
Fmaj7 Bbmaj9
or anything fine or even rare
Fmaj7 Bbmaj9
Only if you let me be your world
Ab – Bb – Ab – Bb – C
could I ever give this world to you
Ab – Bb – Ab – Bb – C
could I ever give this world to you
