From the recording Goodnight, Goodnight
Lyrics
A Million Different Worlds<br />
<br />
A young man’s gonna tell his folks the news tonight<br />
They’ll put their hopes for grandkids in a box with all their fears<br />
A college girl’s gonna take her hardest test tonight<br />
A thin blue line will tell the truth, confirming all her tears<br />
<br />
And someone just got hired for a million dollar bonus<br />
And someone’s leaving home for somewhere safe<br />
And someone just got fired and he’s got to tell his children<br />
That the little things they need, they’re gonna have to wait<br />
<br />
A million different worlds going on around us<br />
A hundred different choices every moment of the day<br />
A millions different worlds going on around us<br />
XX X<br />
What’s your’s today / 4 bar break<br />
<br />
A boy in Massachusetts’ going back to boarding school today<br />
He doesn’t want his dad to know he’s scared<br />
A white haired woman prays for the daughter that she raised<br />
Making deals with God to get her spared<br />
<br />
And someone just got rescues from the fire that took their home<br />
And someone just got back their S.A.T.s<br />
Someone’s making someone else feel better in the dark<br />
And someone found a way to make that little baby breathe<br />
<br />
Chorus<br />

<br />
Seems everybody’s got a choice at how they’re gonna live their lives<br />
They’re lucky or they’re victims or they’re blessed<br />
And I guess it’s easier by far to miss the wisdom where you are<br />
And think you’d like to trade with all the rest<br />
Well they might trade with you ...just as fast<br />
<br />
8 bar solo MB<br />
<br />
Someone’s getting married in the morning<br />
And someone’s finally putting down those cigarettes for sure<br />
Someone’s taking his first day off in 47 working years<br />
And someone’s got a prom date, if he will only ask her<br />
<br />
Chorus<br />
<br />
