[Verse 1 - 4/4 rhythm]
             G               Gmaj7       G6          G *
Just ...re - member you’re a tiny little person on a planet,
     G             G6       G7       D7
In a universe ex - panding, and im - mense,
     Am             Ammaj7             Am7               D7
That life began e - volving, and dis - solving, and re - solving,
                       Am7           G            D7
In the deep primordial oceans by the hydrothermal vents!

[Verse 2]
    G                    Gmaj7             G6                G *
Our earth, which had its birth almost five billion years a - go,
G/F#        E              E7               Am
       From out of a col - lapsing cloud of gas,
     C                    C#dim         G                E7
Grew life which was quite new,  and e - ventually led to you,
        A7     D7                G      D7
In only 3.5 ...billion years, or less!

[Verse 3]
     G           Gmaj7      G6               G *
De - oxyribonu - cleic acid helps us repli - cate,
    G             G6        G7     D7
And randomly mu - tate from day to day,
    Am                 AmMaj7
We left the seas, and climbed the trees,
    Am7         D7             m7           D7                G 
And our biolo - gies ...con - tinued to e - volve through D N A !

[Verse 4]
       G  Gmaj7          G6                G *
We’re 98 .9 per cent the same as chimpan - zees,
G/F#        E                   E7                Am
      Whose trees we left three million years a - go,
   C               C#dim         G    
To wander swapping genes, out of Africa,
       E7                 A7       D7          G
Which means ...we’re re - lated to everyone we know!

("Oo, 'ello, love!")

[Verse 5 and 6 - Waltz time rhythm]
G             Gmaj7    G6            G *
Life is quite strange, life is quite weird,
G       G6     G7    D7
Life is really quite odd,
Am          Ammaj7     Am7            D7
Life from a star ...is far more biz - arre,
        Am7         D7              G
Than an old bearded bloke they call God!

[Verse 6]
   G           Gmaj7    G6           G *
So gaze at the sky, and start asking why...
G/F#    E           E7           Am
     ...You’re even here on this ball,
    C              C#dim        G           E7
For though life is fraught, the odds are so short,
        A7         D7         G
You’re lucky ...to be here at all!

[Verse 7 - Back to 4/4 rhythm]
 G            Gmaj7           G6                G *
Standing on a planet which is spinning 'round a star,
G             G6      G7       D7
One of just a billion trillion suns,
     Am              Ammaj7         Am7                 D7
In a Universe that’s ninety billion light years side to side,
Am                  D7               G
Wondering where the heck it all came from!

[Verse 8]
         G           Gmaj7            G6              G *
You’ve a tiny little blink of life to try and under - stand...
G/F#     E                E7           Am
      ...What on earth is really going on,
        C         C#dim            G                 E7
In bi - ology and chemistry, which made you you, and made me me,
    A7                D7             G
But don’t ask me ...I only wrote the song!
