Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Cried a lotta blues up and down the street

 I'd lose everything I had but I would not lose the beat

 Oh yeah, oh no!

Had a lotta lovin', bitter and the sweet

Bring you up in glory, drop you in defeat

Oh yeah, oh no!

 Oh what a world!

Chorus

 Oh, what a world we live in

 But it's the one we're given

 Stand up and face the trouble!

 Baby, I'm gonna love you

 And you can try to love me too

 Oh, yeah, oh, no! Oh, what a world!

Middle of the night, wake up in a sweat

 The devil's gonna get me but he has not got me yet

 Oh yeah, oh no!

Reach out and I hold you and we double up our love

 If I wind up down below you will you watch me from above?

 Oh, yeah oh, no!

 Oh, what a world!

repeat chorus

 Oh, yeah!

Baby keep hangin on

Oh, no!

don't you ever let go

Oh, yeah!

There's a wind comin' up

 Oh, no!

And the sun's bound to show

Take you to the races, put our money down

Pick up all our winnings, dance all over town

 Oh, yeah! oh, no!

 Oh, what a world!

Repeat chorus to play out.......Enjoy!
