Smile - Earth

Words and music by Tim Staffell



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
