🎸 Verse 1:

A               E                       A
Oh, it's not a perfect world Anyone can plainly see
                E               B
Pick up a newspaper Turn on the T.V.
A               E                            A
Was a war out in the desert Got riots in the streets
                        E                   B                    E
Got mothers living in cardboard boxes Their kids with nothing to eat

🎸 Chorus:

          A                     C#m        E        A
This must be the best possible world Cause it bore you
                 E                   A            B
Evolved from the dust And formed of nature's Holy Rules
          A             C#m            E             A
This must be the best possible world Cause there you are
                E       A              E
Shining like a diamond Burning like a star



🎸 Verse 2:

A               E                       A
Oh, the lion kills the lamb And the hunter kills the lion
                E               B
Death takes the hunter And returns him to the ground
A               E                            A
Sometimes I just don't know What it all means And then I see your pretty face
            E               B                    E
See our two young children Carrying on the race


🎸 Chorus:

          A                     C#m        E        A
This must be the best possible world Just the way it is
                E                  B
With its war and poverty Agony and bliss
A               E                            A
It must be the best possible world Cause here we are all
                E       A              E
Shining like diamonds Burning like stars

🎸 Verse 3:

A               E                       A
Some say heaven's a place so far away Can't get there until you die
                E               B
But I think heaven's going on right here And that we're all divine
A               E                            A
Sometimes when we're at bed at night I'll hold you tight
            E               B                    E
And listen to your steady breathing As I wait for first light


🎸 Chorus:

          A                     C#m        E        A
This must be the best possible world Cause here we all are
                E                     B
You and the kids sleeping like angels But there's demons in the yard
A                       E                            A
But me I'll hold watch every night A footsoldier in the moonlight
                E               A              E
So far fortune's smiled on us And everything's all right
