Intro: A E G E (all chords in major scale "Dur", just like normal)
(Jeffrey Lewis:)
A E
A little, red moon-man held a map and tapped my window,
G E
and he pointed with his pin-head to the moon, moon, moon.
A E
I never had a rocket, even car keys in my pocket,
G E
but I felt I'd follow him away soon, soon, soon.
A E
He painted me with henna, wrapped me up in his antenna
G E
and minutes later, in a crater, introduced me to his home.
A E
But the moon-men all got nervous when they heard I needed oxygen
G E
and put me in a box again, and sent me back alone.
(Jack Lewis:)
A E
If rocket fuel should take this fool,
G E
over the moon.
A E
It won't be made of lucky clover, or,
G E
rabbit's foot.
A E
But something stronger, used for fodder
G E
will have to do.
A E
Make an angel, from a stranger
G E
help his wings last.
A E
Should auld acquaintance* be complacent,
G E
in the past?
A E
Drive to the stars, park your car, then
G E A
walk on back. Then walk on back.
A E
Up in the trees
G E
the squirrels run around like a pack of crazy honeybees.
A E
Their walnuts are sweet,
G E
but when things get weird they all grow a bunch of squirrel beards.
(Anders Griffen:)
A E
I'm just trying to think of something that I thought before,
G E
but every time I come around I'm staring at the kitchen floor.
(Kimya Dawson:)
A E
I'm not going anywhere, I'm perfectly content right here,
G E
settled in in my own skin, breathing in this atmosphere,
A E
and maybe you have expectations of what my next step should be
G E
as if my success depends on leaving this reality
A E
and everything that I am doing isn't the means to an end,
G E
it's the means of creating a meaningful existence,
A E G E
and I just wanna sing with my friends.
(two of them:)
A E G E
I just wanna sing with my friends.
(three of them:)
A E G E
And I just wanna sing with my friends.
(all of them:)
A E G E
I just wanna sing with my friends.
(a chorus joins:)
A E G E
And I just wanna sing with my friends.
A E G E
And I just wanna sing with my friends.
A E G E
And I just wanna sing with my friends.
THE END.
