Let the Rest of the World Go By  - traditional

With 
C
someone like 

you, a 
G
pal good and 

true

I’d 

like to leave it 

all be
C
hind and go and 

find

Some
F
place that’s 

known to 
C
God a

lone,

 
D7
Just a 

spot to 
G
call our 

own

We’ll 
C
find perfect 

peace where 
G
joys never 

cease

Out 

there beneath the 

kindly 
E
skies

We’ll build a 
C
sweet little 

nest some
G
where in the 

west

And let the 

rest of the 

world go 
C
by
