WORLD OF OUR OWN Time: 4/4 Tenor: G
- Record: Seekers (aka New Seekers), ??


INTRO: 1, 57, 1, 57

1 * 4 1
Close the door, light the light, we're staying home to-night
* 6m 1 57
Far a-way from the bustle and the bright city lights
1 37 4 1
Let them all fade a-way, just leave us a-lone
3m 57 1 *
And we'll live in a world of our own____


CHORUS:

17 * 1 57 1
.. We'll build a world of our own, that no one else will share
* * 57 *
All our sorrows we'll leave far be-hind us there
1 * 4 1
And I know that you'll find, there'll be peace of mind
* 57 1 *
When we live in a world of our own____


1 * 4 1
Oh my love, oh my love, I've cried for you so much
* 6m 1 57
Lonely nights without sleeping, while I longed for your touch
1 37 4 *
Now your lips can e-rase, the heartache I've known
3m 57 1 *
Come with me to a world of our own____
