Roger and Brian started as 'smile' together with Tim Staffel. later Freddie
replaced Tim and the band's name became.... the song shows the first ingredients
of what queen was in the early days
EARTH - Smile
Am D G Em
I might be at a table and suddenly I'll catch
C D G
a fleeting vision of her crystal seas
Am D G Em
or I might be standing in a crowded dockyard far a- way
C D G
underneath the sun I've never seen
Chorus:
C G Am
For I have seen many worlds for what it's worth
C G Am F
but I'll never see a- gain the planet Earth, my Earth.
Am D G Em
I might be chasing waves of light out towards the rim
C D G
where stars are sparse and the cold of space seeps in
Am D G Em
Or I might be in a bar room drinking methylated gin
C D G
and thinking of the places I have been
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/q/queen/earth_crd_ver_2.html ]
Chorus:
C G Am
Yes I have seen many worlds for what it's worth
C G Am F
but I'll never see a- gain the planet Earth, my Earth.
Instrumental:

Chorus:
C G Am
Yes I have seen many worlds for what it's worth
C G Am F
but I'll never see a- gain the planet Earth, my Earth.
Am D G Em
Cast adrift a- mongst the stars I float from sun to sun
C D G
dreaming of the world that gave me birth
Am D G Em
All the places I have been re- mind me there is none
C D G
to match the cool green rolling hills of earth
Chorus:
C G Am
Yes I have seen many worlds for what it's worth
C G Am F
but I'll never see a- gain the planet Earth, my Earth.
