     Dm     G       C 
I' m lying on the moon
    Dm          G         C 
My dear, I' ll be there soon
        Dm     G       C 
It' s a quiet starry place
              Dm         G 
Time' s we' re swallowed up
   @ F7M              @ Fm             C 
In space we' re here a million miles away

         Dm        G       C 
There' s things I wish I knew
            Dm       G          C 
There' s no thing I keep from you
        Dm        G      C 
It' s a dark and shiny place
          Dm      G 
But with you my dear
    @ F7M            @ Fm             C 
I' m safe and we' re a million miles away

       Dm     G        C 
We' re lying on the moon
        Dm        G      C 
It' s a perfect afternoon
             Dm       G       C 
Your shadow follows me all day
        Dm         G    F 
Making sure that I' m okay and
        @ Fm             C 
We' re a million miles away
