I can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, princess, now when did
You last let your heart decide?
I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways and under
On a magic carpet ride
A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us no
Or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming
A whole new world
A dazzling place I never knew
()
But when I'm way up here
It's crystal clear
That now I'm in a whole new world with you
Now I'm in a whole new world with you
Unbelievable sights
Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling
Through an endless diamond sky
A whole new world
(Don't you dare close your eyes)
A hundred thousand things to see
(Hold your breath - it gets better)
I'm like a shooting star
I've come so far
I can't go back to where I used to be
A whole new world
(Every turn a surprise)
With new horizons to pursue
(Every moment red-letter)
I'll chase them anywhere
There's time to spare
Let me share this whole new world with you
A whole new world
That's where we'll be
A thrilling chase
A wonderous place

For you and me
I've looked for the chords to this song for ages, but they don't seem to be anywhere,
so I got the piano sheet music off pianofiles.com and got the chords off that. It's a
little hard to follow from the sheets, but I tried my best. I got rid of some of the
alt-bass notes cos they're unnecessary for guitar, but others sound good, so I left
them in. At worst, it's a starting point for someone to do a better transcription.
Anywho, enjoy, beautiful song!
