[Ab] If I [Cm] ruled the world, [Bb] every day would be [Ab] the first [Cm] day of spring.
[Bb] Every heart would [Eb] have a new song [Ab] to sing, [Cm] and we'd sing of the [Bb] joy [Eb] every morning [Bb] would bring.
If
[Ab] I [Cm] ruled the [Bb] world, every man would be as free [Ab] as a bird.
[Cm] [Bb] Every [Eb] voice would be a [Gm] voice [Ab] to be heard.
[Cm] Take my word, [Bb] we would treasure each day [Eb] that occurred.
[Bb] [C]
My world [F] would be a beautiful [C] place [F] where [C] we would weave such [Fm] wonderful [Eb] dreams.
[Ab] My world would [Eb] wear a smile on its [Ab] face [Eb]
[Cm] like the man [F] in the moon has [Am] [D] with the [Fm] [Bb]
[C] moonbeam.

[Ab] If I [Cm] ruled the world, [Bb]
every man would [Eb] see the world [Ab] was his friend.
[Cm] [Bb]
There'd be happiness [Eb] in all [Ab] man's [Cm] land.
No, not [G] if I ruled the [C] world.
[Ab] [Fm] Every head would be [Bb] held [B] up high.
[Eb] [F] [Eb] There'd be sunshine [Db] in [C] the sky.
[Eb] [Fm] If the day ever [Ab] dawned, [Eb] where [Gm] you [Eb] ruled, [Ab] oh, [Cm] [Bb]
[Ab] [Cm] [Bb]
every head would be held [Ab] up, [Cm] sunshine in [Bb] the sky.
