If it's the Eddy Arnold song you're looking for, this should be close. I've put the chord in where I hear them

CHORUS: (C) Make the world go (F) away
And (G7) get off of my (C) shoulders
Say the things you used to (F) say
and make the world go (C) away

Do you remember how you (G7) loved me
Before the world took me a(C) stray
If you do then for (F) give me (G7)
And make the world go away. CHORUS

I'm sorry if I hurt you
I'll make it up day by day
Just say you love me like you used to
And make the world go away. CHORUS

MAKE THE WORLD GO AWAY
(words & music by Hank Cochran)

Make the world go away
Get it off my shoulder
Say the things we used to say
And make the world, make it go away

Do you remember when you loved me
Before the world took you away
Well if you do, then forgive me
And make the world, make it go away

Make the world go away
Get it off my shoulder
Say the things we used to say
And make the world, make it go away

Now I'm sorry if I hurt you
Let me make it up to you day by day
And if you will please forgive me
And make the world, make it go away

Make the world go away
Get it off my shoulder
Say the things we used to say
And make the world, make it go away

How about a couple of Patsy Cline hits: "She's Got You" and "I Fall to Pieces".

Please note that the first verse should read:

"Make the world go away,
And get IT off of my shoulders,"
etc.

He's written some really great ones. Here's a partial list:
Don't You Ever Get Tired of Hurting Me
He's Got You
I Fall to Pieces
I Want to Go With You
It's Not Love (But It's Not Bad)
Ocean Front Property
The Chair (both of these were hits for George Strait)
Set 'Em Up Joe
That's All That Matters to Me
A Little Bitty Tear (one of Burl Ives' biggest)
Don't Touch Me
Who You Gonna Blame It On This Time
You Comb Her Hair
Can I Sleep In Your Arms
Funny Way of Laughing
Is It Raining At Your House
Right In the Wrong Direction
Tears Break Out On Me
What Would Your Memories Do
Why Can't He Be You

Also a very good friend of Willie Nelson...
