The World I Know

Collective Soul

Composed by: Ed Roland / Ross Childress
key: D Tuning: E A D G B E
Bm   D/F#      G                   A
     Has our conscience shown?
Bm   D/F#      G                   A
     Has the sweet breeze blown?
Bm   D/F#       G                   A
     Has all the kindness gone?
Bm   D/F#         G
     Hope still lingers on.
A
     I drink myself of newfound pity
A
     Sitting alone in New York City.
              G
     And I don't know why.


[Verse 2]

Bm   D/F# G   A

Bm   D/F#   G                A
     Are we listening?
Bm   D/F#   G                A
     Hymns of offering
Bm   D/F#   G                A
     Have we eyes to see
Bm   D/F#   G
     That love is gathering?
A
     All the words that I've been reading
A
     Have now started the act of bleeding
  G
     Into one....Into one.


[Chorus]

D                      A
     So I walk upon high
                          G
     And I step to the edge
                          D
     To see my world below.
D                         A
     And I laugh at myself
                            C
     While the tears roll down.
                                G
     'Cause it's the world I know.
                             
     Oh It's the world I know.

     To see my world below.
D                         A
