Verse 1:
Am D G Em
I might be at a table and suddenly I'll catch
C D G
a fleeting vision of her crystal seas
Am D G Em
or I might be standing in a crowded dockyard far away
C D G
underneath the sun I've never seen
Chorus:
C G Am
For I have seen many worlds for what its worth
C G Am F
but I'll never see again the planet Earth, my Earth.
Verse 2 - Chords as verse1:
I might be chasing waves of light out towards the rim
where the stars are sparse and the cold of space seeps in.
Or I might be in a bar room drinking methylated gin
and thinking of the places I have been
Chorus:
Yes I have seen many worlds for what its worth
but I'll never see again the planet Earth, my Earth
Instrumental:
Chorus again:
Yes I have seen many worlds for what its worth
but I'll never see again the planet Earth, my Earth
Verse 3: As for verse 1:
Cast adrift amongst the stars I float from sun to sun
dreaming of the world that gave me birth
All the places I have been remind me there is none
to match the cool green rolling hills of earth
Chorus:
Yes I have seen many worlds for what its worth
but I'll never see again the planet Earth, my Earth
