What A Wonderful World


I see trees of green   Red roses too
1  2   -2   -2   4     -5  -5 -5  5

I see them bloom   For me and you
-3* -3* -3*  -3     3  3   3  -2

And I think to myself    What a wonderful world
-2 -2  -2   -2 -2 -2     -2  -2  2 -2  3   -3


I see skies of blue   And clouds of white
1  2   -2   -2  4     -5   -5    -5   5

The bright blessed day   Dark sacred night
-3*  -3*   -3* -3* -3      3   3  3   -2

And I think to myself    What a wonderful world
-2 -2  -2   -2 -2 -2     -2  -2  2 -2  3   -2


The colors of the rainbow   So pretty in the sky
-2   3  3  3   3   3  1     3  -3* -3 -3 -3  -3

Are also on the faces   Of people going by
-2  3  3  3  3   3  1   3  -3* -3 -3 -3 -3

I see friends shaking hands   Saying, "How do you do?"
-3 4    -5    -5  -5    5     -3  4    -5  -5 -5   5 

They're really saying,  "I love you"
 -5     -5 -5   5  5    -3* -3   3  


I hear babies cry   I watch them grow
1  2   -2 -2   4    -5  -5   -5   5

They'll learn much more   Than I'll ever know
 -3*     -3*  -3*  -3       3   3   3  3  -2

And I think to myself   What a wonderful world
-2 -2  -2   -2 -2 -2     -2  -2  2 -2  3  -3

Yes, I think to myself   What a wonderful world
-3  -2  -3   -2  3 -2     -2 -2  2 -2  3   -2

Oh Yeah
