| D | G | D | |
| A broken promise I kept too long |
| D | A | |
| A greasy shade and a curtain drawn |
| D | G | D | |
| A broken glass and a heart gone wrong |
| Bm | A | D | G | |
| That?s my window on the world |
| A cup of coffee in a shaky hand |
| Wakin? up in a foreign land |
| Tryin? to act like I got somethin? planned |
| That?s my window on the world |
| (CHORUS) |
| D | G | D | |
| That?s my window on the world |
| Bm | G | D | |
| Could you stand a little closer, girl |
| Bm | G | A | |
| Don?t let mama cut those curls |
| A | D | G | |
| That?s my window on the world |
| In broad daylight that circus tent |
| Pulled up stakes, I don?t know where it went |
| A close dark room with a busted vent |
| That?s my window on the world |
| I think about you when I?m countin? sheep |
| I think about you, then I can?t sleep |
| I think the ocean is just so deep |
| That?s my window on the world |
| That?s my window on the world |
| Could you stand a little closer, girl |
| The Queen of Sheba meets the Duke of Earle |
| That?s my window on the world |
| Down on Indiana Avenue |
| Wes and Jimmy, man they played the Blues |
| I guess they were only passin? through |
| That?s my window on the world |
| That?s my window on the world |
| Could you stand a little closer, girl |
| Don?t let mama cut those curls |
| That?s my window on the world |
| That?s my window on the world |
| Could you stand a little closer, girl |
| The Queen of Sheba meets the Duke of Earle |
| That?s my window on the world |
