I'D LIKE TO TEACH THE WORLD TO SING

Composed by B. Backer, B. Davis, R. Cook. R. Greenaway

Oh, I'd (D)like to build a world of hope
And (E)furnish it with love,
Grow (A)apple trees and honeybees
And (G)snow white turtle(D)doves.

And I'd (D)like to see the world for once
(E)Standing hand in hand,
And (A)hear their echo through the hills
For (G)peace throughout the (D)land.

Chorus:
Oh, I'd (D)like to teach the world to sing
In (E)perfect harmony,
Oh, I'd (A)like to hold it in my arms
With (G)love for all to (D)see.
That's the song I (D)hear,
Let the world sing to(E)day.

That's the song I (D)hear,
Let the world sing to(E)day
The (A)song of peace that echoes on
And (G)never goes a(D)way.
[Repeat]

(D)-(E)-(A)-(G)-(D)

[Repeat chorus twice]

(A)Put your hand in my hand,
(G)Let's begin to(D)day.
(A)Put your hand in my hand,
(G)Let's be on our (A)way.

[Repeat second verse]

[Repeat chorus twice]
