So its time        to go away.

It’s a big bright beautiful world 
     A/C#      B7 
With happiness all around

It’s a big bright beautiful world

With possibilities ev’ry where 
    D 
And just a round the bend,

Mama:  
      A/C#    Dsus2      A/C#        Dsus2     A/C#  Dsus2  A/C#

       People hate the things  they cannot under  -  stand 

Papa:  
    D                     C#m 
And when they look at us, they tend to make a fuss, 

Mama: 
B9 
Burn our houses down 

Papa: 
    Dmaj7     Dsus2/E 
And chase us 

Both: 
        A 
Off our land 

Papa: 
Dmaj7                         A/C# 
Its important that you find a cozy cesspit, 

Mama: 
  Dmaj7                   A/C# 
A place no one would ever dare to tread 

Both: 
    Dmaj7 
And if they happen by, 
     C#m 
Make sure you terrify them 

Mama: 
B9 
If you don’t, son 
                Papa: If you don’t, son 

Both: 
Dmaj9           Dsus2/E           A       Bm7 
Then you’ll sure   -   ly wind up dead! 

Mama: 
    A/C# 
Goodbye! 
        Papa: Goodbye! 

Mama: 
B7               Dmaj7                 A/C# 
     Watch out for men   with pitchforks!

G5          Bb                           Eb 
   Keep your big bright beautiful world! 
    Bb 
I’m happy where I am 
C            Eb                  Bb/D                    Eb 
All alone, I got what I need, so read the stinkin’ sign! 
F            Bb                          Eb 
   Keep your big bright beautiful world! 
  Bb               C 
I party on my own, anyway 
Eb                         Bb                 F 
Doin’ what I can with a one - man conga line! 
F/Eb                      Eb                   Gm 
    Yeah, your big bright beautiful world is a teddy bears and unicorns 
Eb                       Dm                                  F 
Take your fluffy fun and shove it where the sun don’t shine! 
Am                        Am/G             Fmaj7     G 
I prefer a life like this;    its not that complicated 
         Am                        Am/G 
Sure I’m fated to be lonely and im destined to be hated 
       Fmaj7                       G 
If you read the books, they say it why I was created 
    D                   F7    F     Fmaj7           Dm   G 
But I don’t care, cause bein’ liked,     is grossly over-rated 
            C                          F 
Who needs a big bright beautiful world 
           Am                            F 
Ive got my own little patch of the world 
          Dm                   Gsus4 
Its not a big bright beautiful world 
        C     D/C    F/C 
But its mine 
           C 
All alone, its mine 
               D    F 
And its mine 
    C 
All Mine!
