[Verse]
                            F                      C/E
Went to buy me a paper at the local news-stand
                  Dm                            Bb
And then I heard them laugh and say
                                    F                         C/E
Look, they're gonna go flying way up to the moon now
                       Bb             F
Hey, what's it good for anyway?

[Bridge]
              Bb
So I said, Fellas
              G
Like to ask you a thing if I may

[Chorus]
                   C
What about Livingstone?
                 G
What about all those men?
                Am                                         F
Who have sacrificed their lives to lead the way
                         C
Tell me, wasn't it worth the while
               G
Travelling up the Nile
               F
Putting themselves on test
              C
Didn't that help the rest?
              F
Wasn't it worth it then?
              C
What about Livingstone?

[Verse]
                        F                       C/E
And all of those fellas at the local news-stand
                              Dm                    Bb
Didn't know what to answer or what to say
                         F                           C/E
So I told them about him, that he was just like
                      Bb                   F
One of those spacemen in his way

[Bridge]
               Bb
And if you laugh at them
                   G
Then there's only a thing I can say

[Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Chorus]
(fade out)
                 C
What about Livingstone?
(Didn't he do it, well didn't he?)
              G
What about all those men?
(Didn't he do it, well didn't he?)
              Am                                         F
Who have sacrificed their lives to lead the way
                         C
Tell me, wasn't it worth the while
(Didn't he do it, well didn't he?)
               G
Travelling up the Nile
(Didn't he do it?)
             F
Putting themselves on test
                 C
Didn't that help the rest?
(Didn't that help them? Well, didn't it?)
              F
Wasn't it worth it then?
