(Frank Mills piano sample)

         F
And it's bigger than an iceberg
         G
Than the plume of a geyser
         F
And it's bigger than the spider
G
Floating in your cider
         F
And it's bigger than the stock market
        G
And the loose change in your pocket
        F
And the Flatbush Avenue Target
          G
And their pharmacy department
         F
And it's bigger than our problems
        G
And our inability to solve them
     F
From Coney Island to Harlem
       G                          C
To the end of the world and back again

     G   Am       F                  G
A broken heart is not the end of the world
           C   G      Am       F           G
'Cause the end of the world is bigger than love
