Chords

As recorded by Aaron Watson (2024 release) [Verse 1]
           C                  Dm7
I'm just a country boy with a simple song

F                          G
Wondering why can't we all just get along

       C                      F
I know people are crazy, hell I am too

                                     G
Today this hit me while watching the news
[Chorus]
           C                        Dm7
If I could buy the world a round or two

                     F                                  G
We'd be laughing and drinking, might be whiskey wishful thinking

                       C                Dm7
But if I could buy the world a round or three

                    F                   G
There wouldn't be a heart or glass half empty

       Dm7                    C/E
And at least for a while we'd all share a smile

           F                        G
This honky tonk could be our common ground

                   C             Dm7  E/G#  F
If I could buy the world a round
[Verse 2]
         C                       Dm7
Well the cowboys and bikers, the rednecks and hippies

    F                           G
The saints and the sinners, the righties and lefties

    C                          Dm7
I'd bring 'em all together and show 'em a good time

                F               G
They'd probably give that Nobel Peace Prize
[Chorus]
           C                        Dm7
If I could buy the world a round or two

                     F                                  G
We'd be laughing and drinking, might be whiskey wishful thinking

                       C                Dm7
But if I could buy the world a round or three

                    F                   G
There wouldn't be a heart or glass half empty

       Dm7                    C/E
And at least for a while we'd all share a smile

           F                        G
This honky tonk could be our common ground

                   C             Dm7  Am7  F
If I could buy the world a round
[Bridge]
                  Dm7                    C/E
It's gonna be one heck of a tab buying a couple billion beers

  F                            G
I might need a loan from y'all... cheers
[Chorus]
           C                        Dm7
If I could buy the world a round or two

                     F                                  G
We'd be laughing and drinking, might be whiskey wishful thinking

                       C                Dm7
But if I could buy the world a round or three

                    F                   G
There wouldn't be a heart or glass half empty

       Dm7                    C/E
And at least for a while we'd all share a smile

           F                        G
This honky tonk could be our common ground

             Dm7                 C/E
And we could all sing along to a Willie Nelson song

               F                        G
We'd throw 'em back instead of throwing down

                   C                Dm7  C/E
If I could buy the world a round or two
[Outro]
F                        C                Dm        C/E  F
Yeah, if I could buy the world a round or three, or four
N.C. Yeah, if I could buy the world a round
