Am      C/E       G       D              Am            Bm       C   Bm/G
But as luck will have it you can stumble in the valley of the blind

Friends will always tell you fate will rear its ugly head to frighten you
Am       C/E      G         D                 Am          Bm     C   Bm/G

Watch out for a surprise, it's nature's biggest prize

And when it comforts you, discover it's a small world too

Am      C/E     G          D                 Am             Bm    C  Bm/G
