Verse 1
(D major) Whenever life gets you down,
Mrs. Brown,
And things seem hard or tough,
And people are stupid, obnoxious or daft,
And (G major) you feel that you've had
quite eno-o-o-o-o-ough,
Just Just Just Just Just Just (D major) remember that you're (G major) standing on
Verse 2
a planet that's evolving
And revolving at (C major) 900 miles (D major) an hour. (A minor)
It's (D major) orbiting at (A minor) 19 miles a (D major) second,
so it's (A minor) reckoned,
The sun (D major) that is the source
of all our (G major) power.
Now (D major) the sun, (G major) and you and me,
and all the stars that we can see,
Are (E major) moving at a million miles a (A minor) day,
In the (C major) outer spiral arm, (C sharpdim)
at (D major) 40,000 miles (G major) (E major) an hour,
Of a (A major) galaxy we (D major) call the Milky (G major) Way.

Verse 3
Our (G major) galaxy itself contains a hun
(C major) dred billion (G major) stars;
It's a hundred thousand light-years
side (C major) side to (D major) side;
It bulges in the middle (A minor) sixteen
(D major) thousand light-years thick,
(A minor) thick,
But out by (D major) us it's just three
thousand light-years wide.
(G major) wide.
We're thirty thousand light-years
from from Galactic Central Point,
We go (E major) 'round every two hundred
million (A minor) years;
And our (C major) galaxy itself (C sharpdim) is one
of mil (G major) lions of bil (E major) lions
In this amaz (A major) ing and expanding (D major) universe.
Interlude 1
(G major) (C major) (D major)
(A minor)
(D major) (A minor) (D major) (G major)
(E major) (A minor) (C major) (C sharpdim) (G major) (E major) (A major) (D major) (G major)
Verse 4
Our (G major) universe itself keeps on
expanding and expanding,
In all of the directions (C major) it can (D major) (A minor) whiz;
As (D major) fast as it can go,
at the speed of light, you know, (A minor)
Twelve (D major) million miles a minute and
that's the (G major) fastest speed there is.
So remember, when you're feeling very
small and insecure,
How amazingly (E major) unlikely is your (A minor) birth;
And (C major) pray that there's in (C sharpdim) telligent life
some (G major) where out in space, (E major)
'Cause (A major) there's bugger
all (D major) down here on (G major) Earth!
