A5           F#5            B5     D5      A5
When I was little someone pointed out to me
A5           F#5            B5     D5      A5
Some constellations but the big dipper's all I could see
A5           F#5            B5     D5      A5
That brontasaurus must have stood a thousand miles high
A5           F#5            B5     D5      A5
That brontasaurus laying on its side up in the sky

Refr?o:
B5               D5
Bottoms up and this time
A5                F#5
Won't you let me be?
B5               D5
Bottled up but this time
A5                F#5
Won't you rescue me?
E5                 B5                                              D5 (hold)
You should have been here last night and heard what the big dipper said to me

A5                    F#5                  B5     D5      A5
Jack thought it twice and thought that that that made it true
A5                 F#5
Some brains just work that way
            B5      D5      A5
that's what chemicals can do
A5                F#5
 He thought he'd have a beer
  B5      D5      A5
he thought he was alone
A5                 F#5
He thought an Albertson's stir fry
       B5      D5      A5
dinner would make his apartment a home

Refr?o:
B5               D5
Bottoms up and this time
A5                F#5
Won't you let me be?
B5               D5
Bottled up but this time
A5                F#5
Won't you rescue me?
E5                 B5                                              D5 
You should have been here last night and heard what the big dipper said to me

A5                 F#5
 I thought I bored me but
         B5       D5      A5
I learned to think like you
A5                 F#5
 Now nothing bores me
                B5       D5      A5
that's that nothing is thought through

Refr?o:
B5               D5
Bottoms up and this time
A5                F#5
Won't you let me be?
B5               D5
Bottled up but this time
A5                F#5
Won't you rescue me?
E5                 B5                                              D5
