Back Down To Earth - from Boys in the Trees - 1978

C                  G
We jumped into a river on the moon
         C             G
But the water was too cold
C                       G    Em
We tried to buy the morning star
Am7                  D
But it was already sold
Em7                  A7
I wanted to make it big with you
              Em7                A7
But my plans must have been too bold

          Am7           D          G
And it's back down to earth again
 C          D       Em7
Back in my car and gone
 Am7          F
Back on the road
Am7           D    G
Back on the road alone

C                  G
You were my summer angel
         C            G
Your eyes how they shone
C                       G    Em
Just last night we were talking about
Am7                  D
How much our love had grown
Em7                  A7
I wanted to prove how good it could be
              Em7                A7
But my plans will have to be postponed

            Am7           D          G
'Cause it's back down to earth again
 C          D       Em7
Back in my car and gone
 Am7          F
Back on the road
Am7           D    G     C  G
Back on the road alone
