How Much Does the World Weigh Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I[G][Asus4][A][D][G]
[D]sat up
thinkin' late last [G]night
Do they have a way to coun
[D]t the stars
There's a lot of scientific minds
[G]That claim to know what all
the an[D]swers are
Well if [Asus4]that's th[A]e case

[Verse 2]
[D]How much does the world
[G]weigh
Somebody's probably [D]worked it out
You can look up what the experts say
[G]But all you gotta do is [D]look
around
You'd be sur[Asus4]prised wh[A]o knows
[D]Ask that

[Verse 3]
[G]woman tryin' to make the rent
And [D]pay [G]the bills and feed [D]the kids
Six [Em]months ago their [Asus4]daddy wal[A]ked awa[D]y
[G]Ask that man whose family
stayed around
'Cause he [D]finally put [G]that [D]bottle down
Now he [Em]has to fight that b[D]attle every [G]day
Hey, [Asus4]how much does
[D]the world [G]weigh

[Verse 4]
Human [D]spirit is a funny [G]thing
How far it bends be[D]fore it breaks
To keep the world from caving [G]in
How much strength [D]does it take
Well don't [Asus4]ask me[A]
[D]Ask that

[Verse 5]
[G]couple in the waiting room
The [D]doctors say it's still too soon
It's their [Em]little girl,
all [Asus4]they can [A]do is p[D]ray
Ask that [G]little boy who's gotta choose
[D]Mom [G]or Dad, either [D]way he'll lose
They're [Em]breakin' up and [D]he
thinks he's [G]to blame
Hey, [Asus4]how much does [D]the world

[Interlude 1]
weigh
[D][G][D]
[G][D][A]

[Verse 6]
Ask that [G]man hangin' on the cross
[D]His last breath will save the lost
The [Em]answer's in the [D]tears on his [G]face
Hey, [Asus4]how much does [D]the world [G]weigh
Well, [Asus4]how much does [D]the world [G]weigh
Well, [Asus4]how much does
[D]the world weigh
[G][Asus4][A]
