Intro
| [D]  [G]   | [A]   | [A] |
| [D]  [G]   | [A]   | [A]

Well, I | [D] hope that I don't [G] fall in love with | [A] you | [A]
'Cause | [D] falling in [G] love just makes me | [A] blue | [A]
Well the | [G] music plays and [D] you display
Your | [Em] heart for me to [D] see,
I | [G] had a beer and [D] now I hear
You | [1/2Em] calling out for | [A] me | [A] |
And I | [D] hope that I don't [G↓] fall in [A↓] love with | [D] you. | [D]

Well, the | [D] room is crowded, there's [G] people every- | [A] where | [A]
And I | [D] wonder, should I [G] offer you a | [A] chair? | [A]
Well, if | [G] you sit down with [D] this old clown,
I'll | [Em] take that frown and [D] break it,
Be- | [G] fore the evening's [D] gone away,
I | [1/2Em] think that we could | [A] make it, | [A]
And I | [D] hope that I don't [G↓] fall in [A↓] love with | [D] you. | [D]

I can | [D] see that you are [G] lonesome just like | [A] me | [A]
and it | [D] being late, you'd [G] like some compa- | [A] ny | [A]
Well | [G] I've had two, I [D] look at you,
And | [Em] you look back at [D] me
The | [G] guy you're with has [D] up and split,
The | [1/2Em] chair next to you is | [A] free | [A]
And I | [D] hope that you don't [G↓] fall in [A↓] love with | [D] me. | [D] |   

Solo (Sing melody with La la la...)
| [D]  [G]   | [A]   | [A] |

| [G]  [D]   | [1/2Em] | [A] | [A] |
| [D]  [G↓] [A↓] | [D] | [D]

Now the | [D] night does funny [G] things inside a | [A] man | [A]
These old | [D] tomcat feelings [G] you don't under- | [A] stand | [A]
I | [G] turn around and [D] look at you, you | [Em] light a cigar- [D] ette
I | [G] wish I had the [D] guts to bum one, | [1/2Em] but we've never | [A] met | [A]
And I | [D] hope that I don't [G↓] fall in [A↓] love with | [D] you. | [D]

Now it's | [D] closing time, the [G] music's fading | [A] out | [A]
Last | [D] call for drinks I'll [G] have another | [A] stout | [A]
I | [G] turn around and [D] look at you, you're | [Em] nowhere to be [D] found
I | [G] search the place for [D] your lost face,
I | [1/2Em] guess I'll have another | [A] round | [A]
And I | [D] think that I just [G↓] fell in [A↓] love with | [D] you | [D]

I see | [C] trees of [Em] green, | [F] red roses [Em] too |
| [Dm] I see them [C] bloom, | [E7] for me and [Am] you,  
And I | [F] think to myself, | [G] What a wonderful | [C] world. [Caug] | [Dm] [G7]

I see | [C] skies of [Em] blue and | [F] clouds of [Em] white, |
| [Dm] The bright blessed [C] day, the | [E7] dark sacred [Am] night, |
And I | [F] think to myself, | [G] what a wonderful | [C] world  [F]   | [C]  

Bridge
The | [G] colours of a rainbow are so | [C] pretty in the sky
Are | [G] also on the faces of | [C] people going by
I see | [Am] friends shaking [Em] hands saying | [Am] how do you [Em] do |
| [Am] They're really [Em] saying | [Dm] I love [G7] you.


I hear | [C] babies [Em] cry, | [F] I watch them [Em] grow   |
| [Dm] They'll learn much [C] more than | [E7] I'll ever [Am] know, |
And I | [F] think to myself, | [G] what a wonderful | [C] world   | [A7]  
Yes I | [Dm] think to myself, | [G7↓] ...what a wonderful | [C] world.  [Fm]   | [Cmaj7↓]      


#Here is a simple setting of the tune in C. Original is in the key of F.
#This arrangement focuses on accessible chords, great for a jam setting.
