[Verse 1]
    D               G                    Em            A7
You walk by the magazines sitting on the rack at the CVS
         D                G                    Em                  A7
One more sad movie star divorce, three hundred died in an airplane wreck
        D                       G                 Em        A7
And you think of all the people suffering and you bury that pain
    D               G                    Em           A7
But you can tell me everything and we’ll ride on that wave


[Chorus 1]
         D                 G                Em                     A7
If I was king of the world, you’d be my girl, you wouldn’t have to shed one single
D               G                 Em                    A7
Tear unless you wanted to, 'cause yeah I know what it’s like
         D                 G         Em                A7
If I was king of the world, yeah girl, we could ride a Greyhound all the
D/F#         G      Em                         A7
Way to the Galapagos, stay for the rest of our lives


D              G     Em             A7 
Whoa whoa whoa whoa, whoa whoa whoa whoa
D              G              Em             A7
Whoa whoa whoa whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa whoa whoa whoa


[Verse 2]
D                  G             Em                      A7
Dad hit you on the hand just for holding your chopsticks wrong
          D                   G              Em                  A7
Then your mom locked you in a shed and Uncle Sam dropped an atom bomb
           D                  G                  Em         A7
But you’re not alone, you can let it go and just weep on my breast
    D                  G                   Em        A7
And cover me with your tenderness and that pain will pass


[Chorus 2]
         D                 G                Em                     A7
If I was king of the world, you’d be my girl, you wouldn’t have to shed one single
D               G                 Em                    A7
Tear unless you wanted to, 'cause yeah I know what it’s like
         D                 G         Em                A7
If I was king of the world, yeah girl, we could ride a Greyhound all the
D/F#         G      Em                         A7
Way to the Galapagos, stay for the rest of our lives


D              G     Em             A7 
Whoa whoa whoa whoa, whoa whoa whoa whoa
D              G              Em             A7
Whoa whoa whoa whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa whoa whoa whoa


[Bridge]
D     Bm      Em       A7  A7/G
  We are the small fish
D     Bm      Em  A7  A7/G
  We swim together
D     Bm        Em   A7  A7/G
  No Prozac or Valium,   we’ll
D        Bm       Em  A7  A7/G
Face tsunamis together


[Chorus 3]
         D                 G                Em                     A7
If I was king of the world, you’d be my girl, you wouldn’t have to shed one single
D               G                 Em                    A7
Tear unless you wanted to, 'cause yeah I know what it’s like
         D                 G         Em                A7
If I was king of the world, yeah girl, we could ride a Greyhound all the
D/F#         G      Em                         A7
Way to the Galapagos, stay for the rest of our lives


D              G     Em             A7 
Whoa whoa whoa whoa, whoa whoa whoa whoa
D              G              Em             A7
Whoa whoa whoa whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa whoa whoa whoa
