F                 G
 Come up and be a kite.

Verse 1:

A
 Beelzebub is,
G             D
 Aching in my belly-o,
A
 My feet are heavy,
        E             D
And I'm rooting in my wellios.

      A                    G
And I want to get away and go,
     E                F       G
From all these mirror windows.

Verse 2:

A
 I look at eye level,
G         D
 It isn't good enough,
A
 And then I find out,
G              D
 When I take a good look up.

          A
There's a hole in the sky,
       G           E          F  G
With a big eyeball calling me.

Chorus 1:

F                 G
 Come up and be a kite,
G                  A
 And fly a diamond night.

  F    Eb
A di...iamond kite,
  G    Eb
A di...iamond kite.
Cm           Bb
 Ooh, what a diamond!

  F                  Eb
A diamond kite, on a diamond flight.
F                 Eb
 Over the lights, under the moon,
F                 Eb
 Over the lights, under the moon.
F               Eb
 Over the moon, over the moon.

Verse 3:

A                G
 I feel a rush a-long my body,
D              A
 Like a bullet I'm 2D.
   E              D
Af-ter a push and pull feeling.
    D
And pull feeling.

      A                   G
And I want to get back to safe home,
E                    F    G
 I love the homeland dome.

Verse 4:

A
 I got no limbs,
    G                     D
I'm like a feather on the wind,
A
 Well I'm not sure,
     E             D
If I want to be up here at all.

        A
And I'd like to be,
            G
Back on the ground,
      E                     F     G
But I don't know how to get down.

Chorus 2:

F                 G
 Come up and be a kite,

 And fly a diamond night.

A di...iamond kite,
Cm           Bb
 Ooh, what a diamond!

  F                  Eb
A diamond kite, on a diamond flight.
F                 Eb
 Over the lights, under the moon,

 Over the lights, under the moon.

 Over the moon, over the moon.
