{c: Thanks to Garry Owen for this}
This is my [G] Earth, and I [D] live in it
[C] It's one third dirt, and [Cm] two thirds water
[G] And it rotates and revolves through space
At [G7] rather an impressive pace
And [C] never even [Cm] messes up my [G] hair
And [Em] here's the really weird thing
The [A] force created [A7] by its spin
Is the [C] force that stops the [G] chaos flooding [D] in
This is my [Em] Earth, and it's [C] fine
It's [D] where I spend the vast majori-[B7]ty of my [Em] time,
It's not [C] perfect, [Cm6] but it's [G] mine, it's not [C] perfect [C] 
{c: }
This is my [G] house, and I [B7] live in it
It's [C] made of cracks, and [Cm] photographs
We [G] bought it from a guy who bought it [G7] from a guy
Who bought it from a [C] guy, whose grandad [Cm6] left it to him. [G] 
And the [Em] weirdest thing is that this house
Has [A] locks to keep the baddies out
But they're [C] mostly used to [G] lock ourselves [D] in
This is my [Em] house, and it's [C] fine
It's [D] where I spend the vast majori-[B7]ty of my [Em] time
It's not [C] perfect, but it's [G] mine, it's not [C] perfect, but it's [F] mine 
{c: }
This is my [G] body, and I [D] live in it
It's [C] 31 and [Cm] 6 months old
It's [G] changed a lot since it was new
It's [G7] done stuff it wasn't built to do
I [C] often try to [Cm6] fill it up with [G] wine
And the [Em] weirdest thing about it is
I [A] spend so much time hating it
But it [C] never says a [G] bad word about [D] me
This is my [Em] body, and it's [C] fine
It's [D] where I spend the vast majori-[B7]ty of my [Em] time
It's not [C] perfect, but it's [G] mine, it's not [C] perfect [C] 
{c: }
This is my [G] brain, and I [B7] live in it
It's [C] made of love, and [Cm] bad song lyrics
It's [G] tucked away behind my eyes
Where [G7] all my screwed up thoughts can hide
'Cos [C] God forbid I [Cm6] hurt somebody [G] 
And the [Em] weirdest thing about a mind
Is that [A] every answer that you find
Is the [C] basis of a [G] brand new cli-[D]che
This is my [Em] brain, and it's [C] fine
It's [D] where I spend the vast majori-[B7]ty of my [Em] time
It's not [C] perfect, but it's [G] mine, it's not [C] perfect, but it's [G] mine
It's not [C] perfect, I'm [G] not quite sure I've worked out how to [C] work it [G] 
It's not [C] perfect, but it's [F6] mine [G]
