[Ab] [Eb] [Bb] [Eb]
First comes the sun that gives us [Fm] light inside the core, [Bb] conditions are [Eb] right to cause a [Ab] proton-proton
[Eb] Now Mercury is rather [Fm] small with creatures [Bb] covering it all.
[Eb] It had [Ab] volcanoes long ago [Bb] but now activity is [Eb] low.
[Cm] its pressure [Bb] and mid-sun, its sphere and [Ab] temperature are [Eb] caused to clear.
[Bb] on Earth's summit, [Cm] we even [Bb] have a decent [Ab] moon that maybe we can [Eb] live on soon.
a lot about, [Fm] with rovers sent [Bb] to check it out.
[Ab] opportunity, [Bb] more into curiosity.

First comes the sun that gives us [Fm] light inside the core, [Bb] conditions are [Eb] right to cause a [Ab] proton-proton
plane [Bb] where mass is lost and energy gained.
[Eb] Now Mercury is rather [Fm] small with creatures [Bb] covering it all.
[Eb] It had [Ab] volcanoes long ago [Bb] but now activity is [Eb] low.
Next Venus [Bb] comes above [Cm] the sun, _ _ [Bb] _
[Cm] its pressure [Bb] and mid-sun, its sphere and [Ab] temperature are [Eb] caused to clear.
So Earth, send me your [Bb] better bet [Cm] to live for here [Bb] on Earth's summit, [Cm] we even [Bb] have a decent [Ab] moon that maybe we can [Eb] live on soon.
_ _ Now Mars we know a lot about, [Fm] with rovers sent [Bb] to check it out.
[Eb] Spirit and [Ab] opportunity, [Bb] more into curiosity.
[Eb] Past Mars the asteroids draw near, [Fm] though really there's [Bb] no need to fear.
[Eb] The space so [Ab] very far apart [Bb] that hitting one would be quite an [Eb] art.
Next Jupiter [Bb] comes towering [Cm] in, in flies and [Bb] mass it's sure to [Cm] win.
Its great red [Gm] spot alone [Ab] could fit two Earths or more inside [Eb] of it.
Its moons are awesome, that's [Cm] a great idea, [Bb] Europa, [Cm] Antelope, Callisto [Bb] and could it be true [Ab] that there's life on [Eb] Europa too? _
_ We come to Saturn with its rings [Fm] that really are [Bb] quite breathtaking.
[Eb] They've got some gaps [Ab] in mainly [Bb] Jupiter's moons, you know there's quite a few.
[Eb] There's Mimas and Enceladus, [Fm] Pandora [Bb] and Prometheus.
[Eb] The massive [Ab] Titan dwarfs, they're [Bb] all 5,000 kilometres [Eb] tall.
And now we [Bb] come to [Cm] Uranus, who's got a [Bb] really [Cm] curious rotation [Gm] axis not [Ab] aligned with all the [Eb] others.
Never mind the last [Bb] planet but not the [Cm] least compared to [Bb] Earth, it's still a [Cm] beast.
Neptune [Gm] and its moons might [Ab] need to educate your [Eb] brother, Steve.
_ _ Well now we come to poor Pluto, [Ab] the scientists have voted no.
[Eb] We had to draw [Ab] the line somewhere, [Bb] I'm sorry Pluto, that's not fair.
[Eb] But now you get to be the king [Ab] of the [Bb] Flutinos under your wing.
[Eb] And all the other [Ab] KBOs, [Bb] how many are there?
No [Eb] one knows.
But that's not all, [D] much further out [Cm] you'll see some [Bb] comets, Jupiter, [Cm] Magda.
Sometimes the [Bb] comets won't [Ab] appear, although the odd [C] path's far from [Eb] me.
And that's the solar [Bb] system's end, [Cm] from here you go alone my friend.
The [Gm] trip's the one [Bb] way, here at Pluto, _ [Ab] send postcards home _ [Bb] by _ radio.
