Verse 1:

C7/G                    C7sus4/G 
 The place where I come from, is a small town.
Cm7/G                                Gm 
 They think so small, they use small words.
        C7/G                      C7sus4/G 
But not me; I'm smarter than that; I worked it out.
Cm7/G 
 I've been stretching my mouth,
             Gm 
To let those big words come right out.

           C7/G                           C7sus4/G 
I've had e-nough, I'm getting out, to the city, the big, big city.
Cm7/G 
 I'll be a big noise, with all the big boys,
        Gm 
There's so much stuff I will own.

Bridge 1:

F b5                          C7/E 
 And I will pray to a big God, as I kneel in the big church.

 (Big Time),   oh yes.
Gm          Gm/Bb        C/E     C7sus4/F 
 (Big Time), I've got to make it show, yeah!

Gm          Gm/Bb C/E     C7sus4/F    Gm   Gm/Bb  C/E  C7sus4/F 
 (Big Time),      so much larger than life.

Verse 2:

C7/G                     C7sus4/G 
 My parties have all the big names,
                                 Cm7/G 
And I greet them with the widest smile.
                                    Gm 
Tell them how my life is one big ad-venture.
                     C7/G 
And always they're a-mazed,
                           C7sus4/G 
When I show them 'round my house, to my bed.
         Cm7/G 
I had it made like a mountain range,
                  Gm 
With a snow-white pillow for my big fat head.

Bridge 2:

F b5
 And my Heaven will be a big Heaven,
C7/E 
 And I will walk through the front door.

Big, big, big, big, big, big, big.
