Ed Sheeran - What Do I Know

[verse]
E                  B/D#   C#m
Ain't got a soapbox I can stand upon
B    A                G#m      A
But God gave me a stage, a guitar
       B
and a song
   E
My daddy told me "Son,
B/D#      C#m           B
 don't you get involved in
A                  G#m
Politics, religions
      A         B
other people's quarrels"

[prechorus]
A                      C#m  B
 I'll paint the picture, let me
        E
set the scene
      A                        C#m  B
I know when I have children they will
          E
know what it means
      A
And I pass on these things my
 C#m  B           E
family's given to me
     A                        B
Just love and understanding, positivity

[chorus]
         E                     B/D#
We could change this whole world with
  C#m
a piano
   B  A              G#m
Add a bass, some guitar, grab a
A        B
beat and away we go
 E                 B/D#    C#m
I'm just a boy with a one-man show
B  A          G#m        A      B
No university, no degree But Lord knows
 E             B/D#
everybody's talking 'bout
  C#m
exponential growth
   B  A                 G#m
And the stock market's crashing in
A        B
their portfolios
      E                 B/D#
While I'll be sitting here with
C#m
a song that I wrote
   B  A              G#m
Sing, love could change the world
     A
in a moment
   B                E B/D# C#m
But what do I know?
B  A                    G#m       A
   Love can change the world in a moment
   B                E B/D# C#m
But what do I know?
B  A
   Love can change the world
G#m  A         B
in a moment

[verse]
    E                  B/D#   C#m
The revolutions coming its a minute away
B  A                G#m      A         B
I saw people marching in the streets today
   E                     B/D#   C#m
You know we are made up of love and hate
B   A                G#m
but both of them are balanced
A         B
on a razor blade

[prechorus]
A                      C#m  B
 I'll paint the picture, let me
        E
set the scene
      A                        C#m
I know I'm all for people following
B           E
their dreams
      A
Just remember life is more than
C#m  B           E
 fitting in your jeans
     A                        B
It's love and understanding, positivity

 I'll paint the picture, let me
        E
set the scene
      A                        C#m
You know the futures in the hands of
B           E
 you and me
      A
So lets all get together we can
C#m  B           E
 all be free
Spread love and understanding, positivity
