WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD

 

Sam Cooke

 

[G] Don't know much about [Em] history,

[C] Don't know much bi-[D7]-ology

[G] Don't know much about a [Em] science book,

[C] Don't know much about the [D7] French I took

[G] But I do know that [C] I love you

[G] And I know that if you [C] love me too

What a [D7] wonderful world this could [G] be

 

[G] Don't know much about [Em] geography,

[C] don't know much trigo-[D7]-nometry

[G] Don't know much about [Em] algebra,

[C] Don't know what a slide [D7] rule is for

[G] But I do know one and [C] one is two

[G] And if this one could [C] be with you

What a [D7] wonderful world this could [G] be

 

Now [D7] I don't claim to [G] be an 'A' student,

[D7] But I'm tryin' to [G] be

Cause [Em] maybe by [D] being an [Em] 'A' student [D] baby,

[A7] I could win your [D7] love for me

 

[G] Don't know much about the [Em] middle ages,

[C] Looked at the pictures and I [D7] turned the pages

[G] Don't know nothin' 'bout no [Em] rise and fall

[C] Don't know nothin' 'bout [D7] nothin' at all

[G] But I do know that [C] I love you

[G] And I know that if you [C] loved me too

What a [D7] wonderful world this would [G] be

 

Now [D7] I don't claim to [G] be an 'A' student,

[D7] But I'm tryin' to [G] be

Cause [Em] maybe by [D] being an [Em] 'A' student [D] baby,

[A7] I could win your [D7] love for me

 

[G] Don't know much about [Em] history,

[C] Don't know much bi-[D7]-ology

[G] Don't know much about a [Em] science book,

[C] Don't know much about the [D7] French I took

[G] But I do know that [C] I love you

[G] And I know that if you [C] love me too

What a [D7] wonderful world this could [G] be

What a [D7] wonderful world this could [G] be

What a [D7] wonderful world this could [G] be
