[Db] [Gb] [Db] [Gb] [Db]
Oh, if [Gb] I could build my [Db] whole world [Gb] around you, [Db] darling,
first [Gb] I'd put [Db] heaven by [Ebm] your side.
[Db] [Gb] Pretty flowers [Db] would grow [Gb] wherever you walked, [Db] honey,
and [Ebm] over your [Db] head would be the [Ebm] bluest sky.
[Am] [Fm] Then I'd take [Db] every drop of rain,
[Ab] and watch all [Bbm] your troubles away.
I'd [Fm] have the whole [Ab] world wrapped up in you, darling,
[Db] and I would be [Gb] all right.
[Db] Oh, yes you would.
[Gb] If I could build [Db] my whole [Gb] world around [Db] you,
I'd [Gb] make your [Db] eyes the [Ebm] morning sun.
[Db] [Gb] I'd put so [Db] much love [Gb] where there is [Db] sorrow,
[Ebm] I'd put joy [Db] where there's never [Ebm] been [Em] none.
[Fm] Then I'd give [Bbm] my love to you,
[Fm] for you to keep [Bbm] for the rest of your life.
[Eb] Oh, and [Fm] happiness would surely [Ab] be ours,
[Db] and that would [Gb] be all right.
[Db] Oh, yes it would.
[Gb] [Gb] [Db] [Gb] If [Db] I [Eb] could [Fm] [Bb] [Ab] build [Eb] my whole world [Ab] around you,
[Eb] [Ab] I'd give you the greatest [Eb] gift any woman [Fm] could pose.
[Ab] [Ab] And I'd step [Eb] into this [Ab] world you've [Eb] created,
and [Ab] give you true love and [Ab] tenderness.
[Gm] And there'd be something [Cm] new with every tomorrow,
to [Gm] make this world [Cm] better.
[Fm] If I [Gm] could build my [Eb] whole world [Ab] around you,
I [Gm] [Bb] [Eb] would [Ab] be all right.
[Eb]
[Fm] Oh, yes [Gm] [Bb] I [Fm] would.
If [Gm] I [Bb] found you,
[Eb] that would [Ab] be all right.
[Eb] [Fm] Oh, yes it [Gm] [Bb] would. Oh, baby.
[Fm] [Gm] [Bb] [Eb] [Ab]
