[Verse 1]
      D
Saw a little kid hold a door for a man about five times his age
        Bm
And somebody bought my coffee at the drive-thru yesterday
   G
We tend to run full steam ahead and never stop to smile
   D
So I called up my Grandpa just to talk for a little while


[Chorus]
   D
If kindness was contagious
    G              D
And no one could escape it
G                  D           Bm          D
Hate would be some four-letter word nobody used
D
Different isn't dangerous
G                    D
Hands were meant for shakin'
G                    D
Hearts were made for making love
Bm             D
This I promise you
          D
Yeah, the world would be such a better place if
                D
Kindness was contagious


[Verse 2]
  D
A church group hеlped rebuild a house that burned up down the road
Bm
Stranger walked across town to bring somebody's lost dog home
     G
It's easy getting caught up looking out for number one
    D
But we know how good it can feel when we stop to help someone


[Chorus]
   D
If kindness was contagious
    G              D
And no one could escape it
G                  D           Bm          D
Hate would be some four-letter word nobody used
D
Different isn't dangerous
G                    D
Hands were meant for shakin'
G                    D
Hearts were made for making love
Bm             D
This I promise you
          D
Yeah, the world would be such a better place if
                D
Kindness was contagious


[Bridge]
                   Bm
Just 'cause you're red, don't mean you're right
                   D
Just 'cause you're left, don't make you blue
     G
Hold onto faith for me
    D
And I'll hold space for you


[Chorus]
   D
If kindness was contagious
    G              D
And no one could escape it
G                  D           Bm          D
Hate would be some four-letter word nobody used
D
Different isn't dangerous
G                    D
Hands were meant for shakin'
G                    D
Hearts were made for making love
Bm             D
This I promise you
          G                             D
Yeah, the world would be such a better place if
G                     D
World would be such a better place if
                D
Kindness was contagious
                Bm
Kindness was contagious
G                     D
World would be such a better place if
                D
Kindness was contagious
