Intro:

A  G  F  D (x2)

Verse 1:

D               G
 God is playing marbles,
         D               A
With his planets and his stars.
    D           G
Cre-ating havoc through my life,
            D            A
Through his influence on Mars.

Chorus 1:

               D         C        G
That's why I'm stumbling down the highway,
               F     D
On my boots of steel.
D                    C        G
 I should be rolling down the skyway,
             F       D
On my cosmic wheels.

A    G   F       D
 Cos-mic Wheels,
A    G   F       D
 Cos-mic Wheels,
A    G   F       D
 Cos-mic Wheels.

Verse 2:

       D                       G
In the present position of the planets,
        D                  A
It's im-possible for me to say.
     D                 G
Just when I'll find my course again,
           D              A
With these boulders in my way.

Chorus 2:

D                    C        G
 I should be rolling down the skyway,
             F       D
On my cosmic wheels.
           D         C        G
Instead of stumbling down the highway,
               F
On my boots of steel.

A    G   F       D
 Cos-mic Wheels,
A    G   F       D
 Cos-mic Wheels.
A    G   F       D
