[Chorus] D 'Cause what the world needs now G is a new kind of tension Cadd9 G D 'cause the old one just bores me to death. D 'Cause what the world needs now Cadd9 G is another folk singer Cadd9 G D like I need a hole in my head. [Verse 2] D I don't know what the world may need G but a V-8 engine's a good start for me Cadd9 G D think I'll drive and find a place to be surly. D I don't know what the world may want G but some words of wisdom could comfort us Cadd9 G D think I'll leave that up to someone wiser. [Chorus] D 'Cause what the world needs now Cadd9 G are some true words of wisdom Cadd9 G D like la la la la la la la la la. D 'Cause what the world needs now Cadd9 G is another folk singer Cadd9 G D like I need a hole in my head.
