TITLE: What the World Needs Now
{Refrain}
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
No not just for some but for everyone
/ Bm7 Em7 Bm7 Em7 / C6 C Bm D7 / 1st / C6 - B B7 /
Lord, we don't need another mountain
There are mountains and hillsides enough to climb
There are oceans and rivers enough to cross
Enough to last till the end of time
/ Em7 - - - / Dm9 G6 Cmaj7 C6 / Dm7 G Cmaj7 / Em7 A7 D9 Dmsus4 /
{Refrain}
Lord, we don't need another meadow
There are cornfields and wheat fields enough to grow
There are sunbeams and moonbeams enough to shine
Oh listen, lord, if you want to know
{Refrain}
No, not just for some, oh, but just for everyone
(E7) / C6 C Bm7 Cmaj7 - G - /
