There Must be a Better World Somewhere
BB King (Deuces Wild)
Hi folks--wasn't here so I tabbed it. This is the version with Dr. John. BB plays the
like nobody alive (play it in Ab maj). The % = repeat last bar. --best, Mo Love
Intro: Ab – Fm – Db - Eb
|Ab | % |
Sometimes I wonder
| Ab7 | % |
Just what am I fighting for?
|Db | Db/A |
I win some battles
| Dbm | % |
But I always lose the war
|Ab |Fm |
I keep right on stumblin'
| Db |Eb |
In this no-man's land out here
| Ab |Fm |
But I know—Mmmmm yes I know
|Db |Eb |
There must be a better world somewhere
(once through chorus chords again)
Flying high
Some joker clips my wings
Just because he gets a kick
Out of doing those kind of things
I keep on fallin' in space
Or just hangin' in mid-air
But I know—Ohh yes I know
There has just got to be a better world somewhere
(then |Ab | Db | Ab | % |)
(BREAK)
Db Ab
Everybody I know, Only loves they’ self
Db Ab
Every woman I love, Seems to love somebody else
Db Bm
And every woman Got a license to break my heart
Bb Eb
And every love is over before it gets a chance to start
SOLO (once through verse chords) BREAK again
In a year Maybe in the year after
Instead of tears I'll learn all about laughter
But meanwhile I'm stuck out here, It just ain't fair,
But I know, Oh yes, I know
There must be a better world somewhere
There's just gotta be
Gotta be a better world somewhere
