Clint plays in key Bb 
This was transposed to key of C
[Verse 1]
Just Cremember that you're Gstanding on a Cplanet that's evolving
Revolving at Fnine hundred miles an GhourDm  
It's Gorbiting at Dmnineteen miles a Gsecond so it's Dmreckoned
A Gsun that is the source of all our Cpower
[Verse 2]
The sun and you and Gme and all the Cstars that we can see
Are A7moving at a million miles a Dmday
In an Fouter spiral F#dim7arm at forty Cthousand miles an Ahour
Of the DGalaxy we Gcall the Milky CWay
[Verse 3]
Our Galaxy itself contains G100 billion Cstars
It's 100,000 D7light years side to Gside
It bulges in the Dmmiddle 16,G000 light years Dmthick
But out by Gus it's just 3,000 light years Cwide
[Verse 4]
We're 30,000 light years from Ggalactic central Cpoint
We go A7round every 200 million Dmyears
And our FGalaxy is Donly one of Cmillions and Abillions
In this D7amazing and Gexpanding UniCverse
