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)
