Bm       F#m      D      Bm
All the world is like a beach ball
        A        G        Bm
Out in space, between the waves
        A        D        Bm
In the hands of laughing babies

All the world is gumball shaped
D         Bm D
Hello moon
D                  Bm D
Hello stars and sky

Heaven, won't you
D

Answer me why?

Victory, smiles the wicked man
                  A         G     Bm
Does he feel the weight of every finger
        A       G     Bm
Hanging on his heavy hand?
