If The World Chords

   
Guns N' Roses - If the World
------------------------------
Key of F
Ear-transcribed on ukulele by Neil Killer.
------------------------------
This is my acoustic interpretation of the song. The actual song consists of 
various electric guitar riffs and a lot of alternating F and Dm chords. 
However, the whole song seems to follow the F - A# - C - Dm progression, even 
though the actual chord progression is never played. You can play this 
progression while listening to the song and it will fit for the ENTIRE song.

There might be some variations of the chord progression that would also fit, 
such as replacing A# with Am, but the one I used harmonizes best with the song.

INTRO:
F - A# - C - Dm

CHORUS:
F      A#                C   Dm
If the world would end today
F           A#
And all the dreams we had
      C               Dm
Would all just drift away
F                A#              C   Dm
You know there's nothing more to say
F      A#
If the world would end
    C                 Dm
And our love slipped away

VERSE 1:
F       A#                    C          Dm
I never knew the way that you look at me
F          A#              C   Dm
Would ever mean so much to me
F         A#
But in my heart I found
    C                  Dm
The feelings that I've never shown
F               A#              C   Dm
And now they've got the best of me
