D   C   G(Riff 1)
Big Sky looked down on all the people looking up at The Big Sky
F   C   G(Riff 2)
Everybody's pushing one another around
D   C   G(Riff 1)
Big Sky feels sad when he sees the children scream and cry
But BFig Sky's too bCig to let it get him dGown
(Riff 2) D   C  G  
Big Sky's too big to cry
(Riff 2) D   C  G  
Big Sky's too high to see
(Riff 2) D   C   G  F  
People like you and me
OBbne dGmay we'Ebll be frBbee
WEbe won't cBbare Ebjust you sBbee
BbTill Gmthat daEby can Bbbe don't lEbet it get you down
And wEbhen I see that the woBbrld's too much for me
I tEbhink of The Big Sky and nothing maBbtters much to me
BDig Sky looked doCwn on all the people who think they'Gve got problems
They get depressed and they hold their heads in their hands and they cry
The people lift up their hands and they look up to The Big Sky
But The Big Sky's too big to sympathize
(Riff 2) D   C  G  
Big Sky's too up to cry
Though he would like to try
When he feels glad inside
Big Sky's too big to cry
OBbne dGmay wEbe'll be Bbfree
We won't care just you wait and see
Till that day can be don't let it get you down Bb
