It's a Different World Now chords and lyrics - RODNEY CROWELL

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]To make the world a [D]better
place like [A]dreamers often [D]will
We [G]left our bed [D]of roses to
[A]push that rock [D]up hill
The [G]way we went about [D]our task
proved [A]destined for [D]to fail
[G]Who we thought we were [D]don't ask
there's [A]no way you can [D]tell

[Verse 2]
It's a [G]different [D]world now
[Em]to say the least[D]
The [Bm]sun comes [D]up from in the west
and [Em]sets down [G]in the east
The [Bm]stars are out there [D]shining
but just [Em]where we can not [G]say
It's [Bm]different [D]world [A]now like night and
[D]day
[Em][D][Em][D][Em][D]

[Verse 3]
[Em][D]
In the [G]name of self [D]defense we built
[A]bombs to prove [D]a point
And we'd [G]drop them on [D]our neighbors
when their [A]nose got out of [D]joint
[G]To sell the same [D]hamburger
rain [A]forests had [D]to go
Hell [G]we don't need no air to [D]breathe
but [A]just don't tell us [D]no
It's a [G]different

[Verse 4]
[D]world now
[Em]without a do[D]ubt
The [Bm]raindrops [D]fall to Heaven
and the [Em]tides go rolling [G]out
The [Bm]rivers flow like [D]powdered milk
and the wind [Em]blows with [G]a wheeze
It's a [Bm]differ[D]ent world now
[A]there are no tre[D]es
[Em]I take a look around

[Verse 5]
[D]and
I see [Em]ice caps in your e[D]yes
[Em]Desert where the swamp[D] should beneath
[Em]cold black canvas [D]skies
[Em]I take a loo[D]k around and I
see [Em]crossbones on [D]a rose
[Em]How we let this come[D] to be
seems [Em]no one really kn[D]ows
In [G]life's rich beauty pageant

[Verse 6]
[D]
we put chil[A]dren on [D]a stage
Said [G]flash your soft white [D]belly child
[A]but just don't act your [D]age
Sell [G]sex like cotton [D]candy to
[A]young and old [D]alike
When [G]you've outlived [D]the fantasy
girl [A]you can take [D]a hike

[Verse 7]
It's a [G]different [D]world [Em]now but what to d[D]o
We [Bm]had our f[D]ifteen minutes and
we [Em]blew it right on [G]cue
We [Bm]used up mother [D]nature like
a [Em]twenty dollar [G]whore
It's a [Bm]different [D]world [A]now there ain't no [D]more

[Outro 1]
[Em][D][Em][D][Em][D][Em]
[D][Em][D][Em][D][Em][D][Em]
