Notes about this song:
I think the riffs are pretty close, but may not be exact, 
especially on the Em and G parts (are there some chord variations 
in here that I'm missing?).  
This same riff, or variations thereof, is also
played between the chorus and verses.  
Also, for a fuller sound, (like when playing solo), an
alternate version of the riff is provided below.

INTRO RIFF: (x2)
D                                 Em               G

D
I'm a little bit high
I'm a little bit low             Em  G Em G
Hear your name where ever I go

I'm a little bit wrong
I'm a little bit right             Em  G  Em  G
Hear your name all day and night

CHORUS:
A     D
When the music calls
A         D
I'll be there
A        D
No more sadness
A        D
No more cares
G   Em  G  Em
Let's think about living
D
Let's think about life
C             G                D
Like a comet painted on the sky
C                 G                      D       A
Like an old soul over darkness you'll fly

D Em G  Em G(as in intro, 2x)

I'm a little bit here
I'm a little bit there
I'm a little bit scattered everywhere

I'm a little bit up
I'm a little bit down
Hear your name all over this town
