Whenever life gets you down mrs brown
And Fdimthings seem hard or Btough
and Fdimpeople are stupid, obBnoxious or G#7daft
and you C#mfeel like youve had quite eF#7nough F#aug
Just reBmember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving
And revolving at nine hundred miles an F#hour,
That's orbiting at nineteen miles a second, so it's reckoned,
A sun that is the source of all our Bpower
The sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see
Are G#moving at a million miles a C#mday
In an Eouter spiral Fdimarm, at forty B/F#thousand miles an Cdimhour,
Of the C#galaxy we F#call the 'Milky BWay'.
link: E Fdim B/F# Cdim C# F# B
Our Bgalaxy itself contains a hundred billion stars.
It's a hundred thousand light years side to F#side.
It bulges in the middle, sixteen thousand light years thick,
But out by us, it's just three thousand light years Bwide.
We're thirty thousand light years from galactic central point.
We go G#'round every two hundred million C#myears,
And our Egalaxy is Fdimonly one of B/F#millions of Cdimbillions
In this aC#mazing and exF#panding uniBverse.
String solo: Same chords as the verse
The Buniverse itself keeps on expanding and expanding
In all of the directions it can F#whizz
As fast as it can go, at the speed of light, you know,
Twelve million miles a minute, and that's the Bfastest speed there is.
So remember, when you're feeling very small and insecure,
How aG#mazingly unlikely is your C#mbirth,
And Epray that there's inFdimtelligent life B/F#somewhere up in Cdimspace,
'Cause there's C#bugger all F#down here on BEarth
