Galaxy Song

   Am7                         
Whenever life gets you down Mrs 
 Bb
Brown
    Am7                 Bb
And things seem hard or tough
    Am7                  Bb       
And people are stupid, obnoxious 
  G7
or daft
        Cm                         
And you feel like you've had quite 
 F7      F6       F
enou-ou-ou-ou-ough...


       Bb                 Dm      
Just remember that you're standing
      Gm             Bb
 on a planet that's evolving
And revolving at nine hundred miles 
   F
an hour
       F7
That's orbiting at nineteen miles a 
second, so it's reckoned
   F                               
A sun that is the source of all our
 Bb
 power

    Bb              Dm             
The sun and you and me and all the 
Gm                Bb
stars that we can see
    G7                          Cm
Are moving at a million miles a day
      Eb           Ebm           
In an outer spiral arm, at forty 
Bb                Gm7
thousand miles an hour

       Cm        F              Bb
Of the galaxy we call the Milky Way

Eb Ebm Bb Gm Cm F Bb F

    Bb       Dm              Gm  
Our galaxy itself contains a 
            Bb
hundred billion stars
It's a hundred thousand light years 
        F
side to side
   F7
It bulges in the middle, sixteen 
thousand light years thick
           F                  
But out by us, it's just three 
                      Bb
thousand light years wide

      Bb              Dm          
We're thirty thousand light years 
       Gm             Bb
from galactic central point
      G7                     
We go round every two hundred 
         Cm
million years
        Eb        Ebm       
And our galaxy is only one of 
  Bb          Gm7
millions of billions
         Cm           F     
In this amazing and expanding 
     Bb
universe

Bb Dm Gm Bb F

Bb Dm Gm Bb G7 Cm

Eb Ebm Bb Cm F Bb F

    Bb         Dm          
The universe itself keeps on 
    Gm            Bb
expanding and expanding
In all of the directions it can 
F
whizz
   F7
As fast as it can go, at the speed 
of light, you know
       F                           
Twelve million miles a minute, and 
          Bb
that's the fastest speed there is

     Bb                  Dm    
So remember, when you're feeling 
       Gm            Bb
very small and insecure
     G7                        Cm
How amazingly unlikely is your birth
    Eb                  Ebm       
And pray that there's intelligent 
     Bb              Gm7
life somewhere up in space
             Cm         F         
'Cos there's bugger-all down here 
   Bb
on Earth
