G                        Am
I don't know about you, but I like to tell the truth.
          C              Dadd4         G
But the truth seems to change every Tuesday.
G                      Am
When I watch the news, man, it just gives me the blues.
 C                   Dadd4                        G
No one listens, just on a mission to hear their own voice.


[Chorus]
Am                           G               D
It's a wild world we're all trying to find our place in it.
Am                           G              D
It's a wild world and no one seems to understand it.
Am                           G              D
It's a wild world but there ain't no way I'm gonna quit it.
C               Dadd4       G
Love is all we got to give away.


[Verse 2]
G                                            Am
Some folks ain't got a dollar to their name, others got their own jet planes.
C                   Dadd4                     G
We all got the same blood running through our veins.
G                        Am
Whether or not you pray, black or white, straight or gay,
C                     Dadd4        G
You still deserve the love of your neighbor.


[Chorus]
Am                           G               D
It's a wild world we're all trying to find our place in it.
Am                           G              D
It's a wild world and no one seems to understand it.
Am                           G              D
It's a wild world but there ain't no way I'm gonna quit it.
C               Dadd4      G
Love is all we got to give away.

[Bridge]
C                                   G               D
Try a little tenderness, maybe some benefit of the doubt.
C                                     G               D
Another person's point of view, try to listen not to shout.
C                                G          C/E    Em
Hold your opinions loosely maybe you're not always right.
C                                  D
Show a little mercy, and hold on to love real tight.


[Chorus]
C                           G               D
It's a wild world we're all trying to find our place in it.
C                           G              D
It's a wild world and no one seems to understand it.
C                           G              D
It's a wild world but there ain't no way I'm gonna quit it.
C               D          Em
Love is all we got to give away.
C               D          G
Love is all we got to give away.
