[Verse 1]
[Am]Let [F]me f[Am]ly,[Dm][Am][C]
fly, fly in stormy water
Let me walk on the bottom
of the rolling [G]sea
Let me [Am]run, run, run around
this [Dm]great infernal [Am]land
Cause this world [Dm]ain't big [E]enough
for [Am]me[F][Am][Dm][Am]
Columbus say to the Spanish king,
I'll [Dm]let you in on a m[E]ighty fine thing,
[Am]I aim to prove that
the world is round,
[E]United States ain't never been found,
United States ain't never been found,
Now [Am]gimme ships, oh
Columbus say,
I'll [Dm]sail to China in a [E]shorter way,
[Am]King he say, this [Dm]world is flat,
[E]Sail to foreign war you add,
Oh let me [C]fly, fly, fly the stormy water,
Let me walk on the bottom
of the rolling [Dm]sea
[G]Let me run[Am], run around
this [Dm]great infernal [Am]land
Cause this [Dm]world ain't big
[E]enough for [Am]me, oh no
The [Dm]world ain't big [Am]enough for
[Adim]me[Am][Dm][Am]
Now Queen Isabella, she gave heed
[Dm]Said go buy the [E]ships you need
[Am]Take my jewels, but travel slow
Cause you [E]might fall down
to the world below
Might fall down to the world below
[Am]Crew was a -yellin', turn back home
[Dm]We a[E]in't ready for the kingdom come
[Am]Look out, hollered [Dm]land, I see why
but [E]there's the Statue of Liberty.
Oh, let [C]me fly, fly, fly the stormy water.
Let me walk on the bottom
of the rolling [Dm]sea.
[G]Oh, let me run[Am], run, run around
this [Dm]great and fertile [Am]land,
because the [Dm]world ain't
big [Am]enough for me.
The [Dm]world ain't big [E]enough for
[Am]me.[Adim][Am][Dm][Am]
Now all of the Indians come out then
to [Dm]welcome Chris and the [E]hungry men,
[Am]step right up and have a little bite,
and the [E]rotary meets on Monday night,
rotary meets on a Monday night.
[Am]Columbus sail right home again,
[Dm]ship load of gold for the [E]Queen of Spain,
[Am]king he say you're [Dm]kicking
at the ground,
[E]always know that the world was round.
Oh, let [C]me fly, fly, fly the stormy water
Let me walk on the bottom
of the rolling [Dm]sea
[G]Let me [Am]run, run, run around
this [Dm]great and fertile land
[Am]Cause this world[Dm] ain't big
enough [Am]for me, no, no!
The [Dm]world ain't big [E]enough for [Am]me.
The [Dm]world ain't [E]big enough for [Am]me!
