Chorus:
   FF         Bb majorBb        FF        C majorC
The sun is a mass of incadescant gas. a gigantic nuclear furnace.
     FF           Bb majorBb       FF       C majorC      FF Bb majorBb FF
Where hydrogene is built into heilium at a temperature of millions of degrees

Verse:
   FF       Bb majorBb       FF          C majorC
The sun is hot. the sun is not a place where we could live.
   FF          Bb majorBb        FF         C majorC  Bb majorBb FF
But here on earth there'd be no life with out the light it gives.
  FF         Bb majorBb          FF       C majorC
We need it's light we need it's heat. The sunlight that we see.
    FF        Bb majorBb       FF   C majorC   Bb majorBb FF
The sunlight comes from our own suns atomic energy.

Chorus:
   FF         Bb majorBb        FF        C majorC
The sun is a mass of incadescant gas. a gigantic nuclear furnace.
     FF           Bb majorBb       FF       C majorC      FF Bb majorBb FF
Where hydrogene is built into heilium at a temperature of millions of degrees

Bridge:
   FF   Bb majorBb
The sun is hot....

(The sun is so hot that everything on it is a gas. Aluminum, copper, iron,
and many others)
   FF   Bb majorBb
The sun is large...

    (If the sun were hollow a million earths would fit inside. and yet it
is only a middle sized star)
   FF    Bb majorBb C majorC
The sun is far away...

    (About ninty-three million miles away. And that's why it looks so small)

   FF       Bb majorBb        C majorC          FF   Bb majorBb FF
But even when it's out of site the sun shines night and day.
   FF    Bb majorBb    FF     Bb majorBb      FF       C majorC
We need it's heat. We need it's light. the sunlight that we see
   FF       Bb majorBb         C majorC   FF  Bb majorBb FF
The sunlight comes from our own suns atomic energy

   (Scientist have found that the sun is a huge atom smashing machine. The
heat and light of the sun are caused by nuclear reactions between hydrogen,
nitrogen, carbon, and helium.)

Chorus:
   FF         Bb majorBb        FF        C majorC
The sun is a mass of incadescant gas. a gigantic nuclear furnace.
     FF           Bb majorBb       FF       C majorC      FF Bb majorBb FF
Where hydrogene is built into heilium at a temperature of millions of degrees
