She Asked Me How
words and music by Mitch McVicker
G D
There's a driftin' song
C
I think we all sometimes hear it
G D C
When our minds are true and free enough
G D C
And there is a spot, inside of countless souls
D G
That longs and yearns to be filled
D C
By that melodic kind of stuff
D C
Blessed are the poor in spirit
D C
Thank God 'cause she's barely got a dime
Chorus
G C D G C
She asked me how I'd change this world
D
And I couldn't think of nothin' to say
G C D G C
It's a great big old place and so much is changin'
Am D G
It's all I can do to look out for what's comin' my way
G D C
So it makes me think my heart's made of steel
G D C
But at least I know it's covered with condensation
G D C
'Cause there is a warm spirit of love
D G
That settles down upon my heart
D C
And its cold dark lonely places
D C
Blessed are those who are hungry
D C
Thank God 'cause her hunger never ends
Chorus
G C D G C
She asked me how I'd change this world
D
And I finally figured out the only way
G C D G C
To change this world for the good or for the better
Am D G
Is to love with the love that's forever the same
Chorus
(repeat)
