[A]What’s worth [E]while?
What [D]drop in the pond
Will [E]ripple on and [A]on

A [A]comment in [E]passing
[D]Sets someone [E]thinking
[A]It could be [E]forgotten
Or [D]it could ripple [E]on and on and [A]on

A [A]comet tra[E]versing
[D]The solar [E]system
[A]Sets kings in [E]motion
[D]Following a [E]star

[A]What’s worth [E]while
[D]   Being kind, being [E]true
[A]Love
(Whatever [E]that is)
Is all a[D]round

Doing what you [E]say you’re gonna to do
(Unless it’s really [A]dumb)

I guess the [A]moral of the story is
[E]   Don’t be dumb
Hold your [D]tongue
Don’t say too [E]much

Have you [A]tried teaching [E]people
By [D]hitting them on the [E]head
With your [A]ideas
It doesn’t [E]work all that [D]well
It doesn’t work at [E]all

[A]People rarely [E]change
So you [D]   might as well [E]like them
[A]Love
Whatever [E]that is
Is all [D]around [E]   

[A]Ripples (ripple ripple)
Across the [E]ocean
[D]Ripples (ripple ripple)
Of de[E]votion
[A]Ripples (ripple ripple)
Just keep [E]going

[D]        [E]  

[A]What’s worth [E]while
[D]Sunrise, [E]   a smile
[A]Gazing at the sky
At the [D]moon and the stars and the [E]size of it [A]all

[A]Life
Whatever [E]that is
Is all [D]around

[E]   Worth while

[A]All the higher [E]emotions
And the [D]living moment(s) [E]where things [A]happen
