[Verse]
         G                     B7
I’m gonna come to your window, knock upon your pane
C7                              A7
stand back in the moonlight and sing your name
     G                    D
Turn your television off, it’s just showbiz
C                                A7
Step out here with me, where the real show is
       G               D                  G    C  G  D
It’s a great big world, life down here on earth

G                          B7
Let me introduce you to my carnival of friends
     C7                             A7
They come from all four corners, on all four winds
G                         D
Thieves up in the castle, kings out in the rain
C                                    A7
Saints down in the trenches, they’re fighting for a change
           G               D                  G    C  G  D
And it’s a great big world, life down here on earth


[Bridge]
C7                           G                                   G7
Baby take a mad dash with me, we’re gonna give it all we’re worth
A7
Come down from your tower, there‘s so much here to see
D tacit           D tacit              G    C  G  D
  Life down here,    life down here on earth


[Verse]
       G                          B7
We got headlights on the highway, stars up in the sky
C7                        A7
Got a sparkle in my eyes, don’t you want to know why?
  G                          D
I killed a lot of time, that was my greatest sin
C                          A7
But I forgave myself, and I’m alive again
           G             D                  G    C G D
And it’s a big old world, life down here on earth


[Bridge/Outro]
                 G                            B7
There’s gonna be two dates on your tombstone, all your friends will read ‘em
    C7                              A7
But all that’s gonna matter is that little dash between ‘em
           G               D                  G    C  D
Yes it’s a great big world, life down here on earth
           G               D                 G    C G D G
Well it’s a big old world, life down here on earth
