(Hey Michael come on & swing. 
Dm7    Bm      G        A 
Looks like you got the world on a string.) 

     Dm7              Bm 
I've got the world on a string 
  G                   A 
I'm sitting on a rainbow 
   Dm7     Bm   F#m        B    
Got that string around my finger 
 G                   A              Dm7 Bm G A 
What a world, what a life - I'm in love 

   Dm7            Bm 
I've got a song that I sing 
   G               A 
And I can make the rain go 
   Dm7  Bm   F#m     B    
Any time I move my finger 
 G                 A    
Lucky me, cant you see - I'm in love 


                        Em     A       
Life's a wonderful thing 
                             Dm7    B 
As long as I've got that string 
                         Em       A 
I'd be a silly so-and-so 
         Dm7                A   
If I should ever let you go 


                 Dm7              Bm             
I've got the world on a string 
             G                A               
I'm sitting on the rainbow 
    Dm7    Bm           G            A 
I've got that string around my finger 
  Em                                 A 
Oh, What a world, what a life - I'm in love
