 C             G7       F
  If I had the world to give
   Dm            Em                  Am
  I'd give it to you - long as you live
   G                 F7M
  Would you let it fall
  A#maj9    F                  C       
  or       hold it all in your arms?
 C           G7       F
  If I had a song to sing
Dm               Em                    Am
  I'd sing it to you - as long as you live
G    F7M               Em        F
  Lullabye - or maybe a plain serenade
               Em     Am          F7M
  wouldn't you laugh, dance, and cry
           C                F    F4
  or be afraid at the trade you made?
 F7M                       A#maj9   F
  I may not have the world to give to you
 F7M               A#maj9   F
  but maybe I have a tune or two
 F7M                 A#maj9    F
  Only if you let me be your world
               Dm        Am       C
  could I ever give this world to you,
               Dm        Am       C
  could I ever give this world to you
 G                            F
  But I will give what love I have to give
 G                        F
  I will give what love I have to give
 G                        F
  I will give what love I have to give
 Dm           C
  long as I live
(Solo)
 C           G7       F
  If I had a star to give
 Dm              Em                Am
  I'd give it to you - long as you live
 G                   F7M
  Would you have the time
               Em               Am
  to watch it shine - watch it shine
  F7M           Dm             C
  or ask for the moon and heaven too?
 F               F4
  I'd give it to you.
 F7M              A#maj9   F
  Maybe I've got no star to spare
 F7M               A#maj9  F
  or anything fine or even rare
 F7M               A#maj9   F
  Only if you let me be your world
                Dm        Am      C
  could I ever give this world to you
                Dm        Am      C
  could I ever give this world to you
