[Verse 1]
[G]Jacob,
he loved
Rachel
[C]Rac[D]hel, she loved him[A]
And
[D]Leah was [Csus2]just there for[G]
dramatic ef[Am]fect[Dsus4]
[D]Well, [G]it's right there in the
[C]Bible, so it [Bsus4]must not [B]be a [Em]sin
But it sure [Am]does seem like an
[C]aw ful dirty [Dsus4]trick
[D]And thi[C]s guy is just a pebble
[Dsus4]pressed i[D]n the book o[C]f a memory
[G]Of a t[Am]ime he thought he [G]loved
her and they [D]kissed
And her friend[C]s say, ah, he's a [G]devil
And she says, [Am]no, he is a dream
This [C]is the world as [D]be st as I can re
[C]member [Csus2]it[G][Am][D]
Now
[G]Jacob got two wo[C]men
And a whole [D]house full of kid[A]s
An[C#m]d he s[C]chemed his way
back to [G]the promised [Am]land
[D]And he finds it's [G]one thing to win [C]him
And it's an[Bsus4]other
to keep [B]him content
[Em]When [Am]he knows that he
is [C]only just one [D]man
And [C]this guy's an empty bottle
[Dsus4]And when [D]he's [C]drunk the ocean dries
[G]Well he sails [Am]off three sheets
[G]to some [D]reckless wind
And his friend[Em]s say, [C]it [Dsus4]awful?
And [D]he says, [Am]no, I think it's fine
And [C]this is the world as be[D]st
as I can re[C]member [Csus2]it
[G]Now
Paige [F]was weeping for the chil[C]dren
She [G]thought she could not bear
As [Am]she bears a sorrow [A]that
she cannot [D]hide[Dsus4]
[D]And she[F] wishes she was with the[C]m
She [G]looks and they're not there
Seem[Bm]s that lov[Am]e comes
for just a moment
[C]And then it [D]passes on by
And [C]her sky's just abandoned
[Dsus4]Swinging [D]at the end of a[C]
hangman's [G]noose
Cause he stole [Am]the moon and
must be [G]made to pay for [D]it
And the friend[Em]s say, my, that's tra[D]gic
She says, [Am]especially for her mom
And [C]this is the world as [D]be st
as I can re[C]member [G]it
And [Am]this is the world as [D]be st as I
can remember [Dm]it[F][G]
