Standard (EADGBE)

I don't know what the world may need

But I'm sure as hell that it starts with me

and that's a wisdom, I've laughed at

I don't know what the world may want

but a good stiff drink it surely don't

so I think I'll go and fix myself a tall one.

'Cause what the world needs now

is a new, kind, attention

'cause the old one just bores me to death.

'Cause what the world needs now

is another folk singer

like I need a hole in my head.

I don't know what the world may need

but a V-8 engine's a good start for me

think I'll drive and find a place to be surly.

I don't know what the world may want

but some words of wisdom could comfort us

think I'll leave that up to someone wiser.

'Cause what the world needs now

are some true world of wisdom

like la la la la la la la la la.

'Cause what the world needs now

is another folk singer

like I need a hole in my head.

...Solo x2...

I don't know what the world may need

and a leather dress ?????????

I'd be happy just to get your attention

I don't know what the world may want

but your long sweet body lying next to mine

could certainly...raise my spirits.

'Cause what the world needs now

is a new Frank Sinatra

so I can get you in bed.

What the world needs now

is another folk singer

like I need a hole in my head.
