"Is this the world we created?"
from the album "The Works" by Queen
A really good song with great lyrics. I find it very hard to believe that
neither this song nor "Love of my life" are not to be found on any of the
greatest hits albums since I for one, consider them to be among the finest
from the Queen repertoire.
think I got it right. I've seen a few other transcriptions, but I don't
think they are accurate enough.
The lyrics follow after the transcription.
BTW Brian May tunes down half a step to bE for this song.
Good luck
Lee Francis

they're not (but there's not much difference).
