The World Is Weighing Heavy On My Mind chords by Bobby Bare

Skip chords and lyrics
Verse 1
(G major) While we're drinking our martinis,
there's a (C major) little child that's
starving in Bi (D major) afra.
And the good life that I'm living
makes me happy but not blind. (G major)
For I see my neighbors dying for the freedom
that I always took for gran (C major) ted
And the (D major) world is weighing
heavy on my (G major) mind
As I hold and kiss my woman
and caress (C major) our healthy children
I feel sym (D major) pathy
For all the lonely souls
who search for love but never find (G major)
And I wish to God they had the love
and happiness that (C major) I've got
For their tears (D major) are weighing
heavy on my (G major) mind
God, I (C major) thank you for my blessings
and I'll try hard to deserve them
And each (G major) day I hope I'm better
than the day I left behind
But I see (C major) the poor and sad,
Lord, they're needin' you so bad,
Lord
Won't you (G major) help them find
the happiness and life you've given (D major) mine
Now I'll (G major) give a word of comfort
to a stranger (C major) who's down
and needs a (D major) buddy
And I'll try to be the kind of friend
we seek but seldom find (G major)
And I'll give a little more
than I've received of human kind (C major) ness
Lord, (D major) the world is way heavy on my (G major) mind
Lord, (D major) the world is way heavy on my (G major) mind
