| I live on a big blueb | all |

| D | G | |
| I'll jump off and smile back at y | ou |

| I don't even know where we | are |
| D | G | |
| They tell us we're circling a s | tar |
| G | D | |
| Well, I'll take their word, for I don't | know |
| G | D | |
| But I'm dizzy so it may be that's | so |

| I'm riding a big blue | ball |

| And never do dream I may | fall |

| So when I do fall I'll be glad to | go |
