Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Whenever life gets you down,
Mrs. Brown,
And things seem hard or tough,
And people are stupid, obnoxious or daft,
And [G]you feel that you've had
quite eno-o-o-o-o-ough,
Just Just Just Just Just Just [D]remember that you're [G]standing on

[Verse 2]
a planet that's evolving
And revolving at [C]900 miles [D]an hour.[Am]
It's [D]orbiting [Am]at 19 miles a se[D]cond,
so it's [Am]reckoned,
[D]The sun that is the source
of all our [G]power.
[D]Now [G]the sun, and you and me,
and all the stars that we can see,
Are [E]moving at a million miles a [Am]day,
In the [C]outer spiral [C#dim]arm,
[D]at [G]40,000 miles [E]an hour,
Of a [A]galaxy we [D]call the Milky [G]Way.

[Verse 3]
Our [G]galaxy itself contains a hun
[C]dred [G]billion stars;
It's a hundred thousand light-years
side [C]side [D]to side;
It bulges in [Am]the middle sixteen
[D]thousand light-years thick,
[Am]thick,
But out by [D]us it's just three
thousand light-years wide.
[G]wide.
We're thirty thousand light-years
from from Galactic Central Point,
We go [E]'round every two hundred
[Am]million years;
And our [C]galaxy itself [C#dim]is one
of mil[G]lions of bil[E]lions
In this [A]amazing and ex[D]panding universe.

[Verse 4]
Our [G]universe itself keeps on
expanding and expanding,
In all of the directions [C]it [D]can [Am]whiz;
As [D]fast as it can go,
at the speed of light, you [Am]know,
Twelve [D]million miles a minute and
that's the [G]fastest speed there is.
So remember, when you're feeling very
small and insecure,
[E]How amazingly unlikely is [Am]your birth;
And [C]pray that there's in[C#dim]telligent life
some[G]where out [E]in space,
[A]'Cause there's bugger
[D]all down here on [G]Earth!
