Let the Rest of the World Go By

Song Info

Intro: 3/4 D 1. Is the struggle and strife 2. Is the future to hold We find in this life Just struggles for gold, A A7 D Really worthwhile, after all? While the real world waits outside, I’ve been wishing today Away out on the breast F#m I could just run away, Of the wonderful West, A E A7 Out where the west winds call. A - cross the great Divide? D A With someone like you, a pal good and true, D I’d like to leave it all behind, and go and find D7 G D B Some place that’s known to God alone, E7 A A7 Just a spot to call our own. A+ D We’ll find perfect peace, A Where joys never cease, A7 F# Out there beneath a kindly sky, D A We’ll build a sweet little nest somewhere in the west, A7 D And let the rest of the world go by.
