Verse 1
A 
D 
A 
On a peaceful and clear night
D 
A 
A boy was staring at the sky
D 
A 
His eyes are light with moonshine
D 
Bb 
A 
Feeling like a valentine
D 
A 
And in the silence someone spoke
D 
A 
An old man in an overcoat
D 
He said, don't you think it's magical
A 
D 
Bb 
A 
I can't recall a night so still
D 
A 
It's quite a sight, the boy replied
D 
A 
The universe is vast and wide
D 
Do you suppose we'll ever know
A 
D 
A 
D 
Bb 
A 
Just how far out she goes
D 
A 
Coming close, the man whispers
D

Why I  myself have known for years
D 
Listen close and listen well
A 
D 
Bb 
D 
A 
I tell you all through turtle shell
Cm

We're a tiger that's sitting
Bb

on top of an aer ofan
Gm 
Cm 
Who in  turn is balanced
F 
Bb 
Dm 
Gm 
upon the back of an old tor toise

it is solid and sound

D 
Am 
Yeah! I thought
D 
A 
this was quite absurd,
D 
A 
the wildest thing I'd ever heard
D 
A 
But there was something in the words,
D 
Bb 
A 
the strangest thing I'd ever heard
D 
A 
Tell me, could this be true?
D 
A 
And why should I believe in you?
D 
You haven't got a shred of proof
A 
D 
Bb 
A 
But still you seem so resolute
D 
A 
And  boy, believe what you will
D 
A 
For you are young with years to fill
D 
A 
I'm telling you we're safe and well
D 
Bb 
A 
And we're dancing on a turtle shell
Cm 
F 
We're on a tiger that's sitting
Bb 
Dm 
on top of an ele phant
Gm 
Cm 
A   good internet balanced
F 
Bb 
Dm 
Gm 
upon the back of an old tor toise

it is solid and sound
Cm 
D 
And it's turtles all the way
Cm 
D 
It's turtles all the way
C 
Cm 
D 
It's turtles all the way,
C 
all the way down

D 
Yeah! The sun,
I'd best be on my way
A 
D 
A 
For I've said all that I  have to say
D 
A 
I'll move along now, just like a stray
D 
Bb 
Perhaps you'll think of me
A 
D 
Someday, and smile
