What The World Needs Now

         Em          Am     Em          Am
What the world needs now is love, sweet love,
Em                  Am                  Em          Am
it's the only thing   that there's just too little of.
         Em          Am     Em          Am
What the world needs now is love, sweet love,
Em                    Am        Em            Am
no, not just for some   but for everyone, for everyone.

[Verse 1]
      C                     F
Lord, we don't need another mountain,
          C                                 F
there are mountains and hillsides enough to climb.
C                    F
There are oceans and rivers enough
   Dm         G
to cross 'til the end of time.

[Chorus]
         Em            Am     Em          Am
What the   world needs now is love, sweet love,
Em                  Am                  Em          Am
it's the only thing   that there's just too little of.
         Em          Am     Em          Am
What the world needs now is love, sweet love,
Em                    Am        Em            Am
no, not just for some   but for everyone, for everyone.

[Verse 2]
      C                     F
Lord, we don't need another meadow,
          C                                     F
there are cornfields and wheat fields enough to grow.
C                      F
There are sunbeams and moonbeams enough
   Dm                 G
to shine, oh, listen, Lord, if you want to know.

[End-Chorus]
     Em              Am     Em          Am
What the world needs now is love, sweet love,
Em            Am                        Em                          Am
it's the only   thing that there's just   too little of, too little of.
         Em          Am     Em          Am
What the world needs now is love, sweet love,
Em          Am     Em          Am
      sweet love, ...
