B  F#               G#m
So tired of feeling blue.
B      F#              G#m
Such a heavy weight on you.
B  F#               G#m
So shake it off and make your way
    E                 B
To somewhere different
    E            D#
To somewhere different
                 G#m
Oh no now you're leaving me
     E           D#
Oh what will you do all alone
       G#m
In the big bad world?
         E
But I'm not worried, no.

Chorus:
B                             F#
Ahh ohh so you're gonna skipalong
       G#m                       E
Quite merrily baby you're gonna revel in,
hating what's going
B                           F#
on. And you're like a sugar bomb. And
   G#m
no harm will come, no
 E                               B
harm will come if you just skipalong

Acting oblivious
Comes natural to us
Keep smiling knowing all
the while the world will fall apart
The world will fall apart, ah-ah-oh

Chorus:
So we're gonna skip along
Oh quite merrily baby
We're gonna revel in hating what's going on
And you're like a sugar bomb
And no harm will come
No harm will come if we just skip along

                            F#
Wouldn't it be lovely to be home? oh
G#m
Safe and sound and no one left
     E                        B
To bring us down but so far away.

Chorus:
So I'm gonna skip along
Quite merrily baby
I'm gonna revel in hating what's going on
And I'm like a sugar bomb
And no harm will come
No harm will come if I just skip along
Yeah, we're gonna skip along
Quite merrily baby
We're gonna revel in hating what's going on
And you're like a sugar bomb, bomb, bomb
And no harm will come
No harm will come if we just skip along

Skip along, skip along, la-de-da
No harm will come if we just skip along
