1.  If I could have the world and all it owns  
      C        Em6         Am       D7 
    A thousand kingdoms, a thousand thrones 
       Em      C          D7      G         C         D7   G 
    If all the earth were mine to own, with wealth my only goal 
        G        D       C       G 
    I'd spend my gold on selfish things 
        C       Em6       Am7       D7 
    Without the love that your life brings 
            Em         Am7       D7      G         C        Am7       G 
    Just a 'little bit more' was all I'd need 'til life was torn from me. 
 
CHORUS 
    C          Bm        Em      D7   Em6 D7 
    I'd rather be in the palm of your hand 
    C              Am7        G 
    Though rich or poor I may be. 
    C             Bm                Em D7 Em6 D7 ? 
    Faith can see right through the circumstance; 
             A         A7           D7     C D7 
    Sees the forest in spite of the trees. 
                C        Em6   Am7 G 
    {CODA} Your grace provides for me. 
 
    {BREAK} G   D   C   G   C   Em6 Am  D7  Em  C   D7  G   C   D7  G    
            |...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...| 
 
                G        D           C        G 
2.  If I should walk the streets, no place to sleep, 
       C        Em6  Am7     D7 
    No faith in promises you keep. 
        Em      C      D7     G            C     D7     G 
    I'd have no way to buy my bread with a Bible for my bed. 
             G         D       C        G       C        Em6      Am7    D7 
    But if I trust the one who died for me, Who shed His blood to set me free 
         Em      Am7     D7       G         C          Am7    G 
    If I live my life to trust in you, your grace will see me through. 
 
{REPEAT CHORUS to CODA} 
 
{SLIDE SOLO--CHORUS w/CODA} 
 
{FIDDLE SOLO--VERSE} 
               G        C2 
    If I could have the world ... {etc. fade}
