C#dim                         G                   C#dim                G
      Whenever life gets you down,(Mrs. Brown)and things seem hard or tough,
    C#dim                     G         E7
And people are stupid, ob - noxious or daft,
         A7                             D7                        
And you feel that you've had quite e - nough------!


            G                 Gmaj7         G6                 G
Just re - member that you're standing on a planet that's e - volving,
                        G6              D7
And revolving at nine hundred miles an hour,
                     Am7              D7               Am7
That's orbiting at nineteen miles a second, so it's reckoned,
  D7               Am7                G     D7
A sun that is the source of all our power!


     G              Gmaj7             G6                G
The sun, and you and me, and all the stars that we can see,
(G/F#)        E           E7            Am          C          C#dim
       Are moving, at a million miles a day, in an outer spiral arm,
             G              E7           Am7       D7             G
At forty thousand miles an hour, of the galaxy we call the Milky way!


  C#dim          G    E7       Am7    D7      G     D7

      G         Gmaj7              G6             G
Our galaxy it - self contains a hundred billion stars, 
                        G6                  D7
Its a hundred thousand light years side-to-side,
                  Am7               D7                 Am7
It bulges in the middle, sixteen thousand light years thick,
            D7                    Am7                 G     D7
But, out by us, it's just three thousand light years wide!


        G             Gmaj7                  G6             G
We're thirty thousand light years from ga - lactic central point,
(G/F#)     E               E7              Am
  We go 'round every two hundred million years,
          C       C#dim          G          E7
And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions,
             Am7              D7            G
In this a - mazing and ex - panding uni - verse!

D7        G          Gmaj7               G6                G
The--- universe it - self keeps on ex - panding and ex - panding, 
                     G6             D7
In all of the di - rections it can whizz,
                  Am7      D7                 Am7
As fast as it can go, the speed of light, you know,
         D7              Am7                     G
Twelve million miles a minute, and that's the fastest speed there is!

D7        G                  Gmaj7        G6              G
So re - member, when you're feeling very small and in - secure,
(G/F#)            E            E7            Am
       How a - mazingly un - likely is your birth,
     C                      C#dim             G            E7
And pray that there's in - telligent life somewhere up in space,
                Am7        D7            G
'Cause there's bugger all down here on Earth!
