Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving

It's orbiting at nineteen miles a second so it's reckoned

A sun that is the source of all our power
[Verse 2]

The sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see

Are moving at a million miles a day

In an outer spiral arm at forty thousand miles an hour

Of the Galaxy we call the Milky Way
[Verse 3]

Our Galaxy itself contains 100 billion stars

It's 100,000 light years side to side

                 Dm        G               Dm
It bulges in the middle 16,000 light years thick

           G                              C
But out by us it's just 3,000 light years wide
[Verse 4]
                              G                C
We're 30,000 light years from galactic central point

We go round every 200 million years

        F         D           C            A
And our Galaxy is only one of millions and billions

In this amazing and expanding Universe

Our universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding

              G          F      G    Dm
In all of the directions it can whiz

   G              Dm     G7                 Dm
As fast as it can go the speed of light you know

   G7                                    C
12 million miles a minute and that's the fastest speed there is
[Verse 6]
                         G            C
So, remember when you're feeling very small and insecure

    A7                         Dm
How amazingly unlikely is your birth

    F                 G7               C               A7
And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space

           D                     G               C     C
Cause I'm afraid that we've been cheated here on Earth
