E G#m C#m B
so they left me sitting here, I saw them talking with themselves
E C#m F# A
about the way, about the way, I would hopefully be found
E G#m C#m B
then they crouched down nice and low and they whispered in my ear
E C#m F# A F# A
about the land about the land, that would have me in the end, my mother whispered to me again
Pre-Chorus
E G#m C#m G#m A B
goodbye my love, this is where I disappear, remember to drink and eat
E B C#m F# B E
make your transmissions religiously and a ship will come for you I swear just keep your blanket on the moon
E G#m C#m B
she said the earth is right there, a mere light second away
E C#m F# A
and the humans all look up in the most peculiar way
E G#m C#m B
with that she brushed the moondust off and turned to hide her tears
E C#m F# A
are you coming back? I asked, she said it could be years
F# A F# A F# A
that I should get some rest, then she tucked me in for the last time as her heart broke in her chest
Pre-Chorus
E G#m C#m G#m A B
bye my love, this is where I disappear, remember to drink and eat
E B C#m F# B E
make your transmissions religiously and a ship will come for you I swear just keep your blanket on the moon,
B E
a better life awaits you
E C#m G#m A B
and I?ll be right there, when you?re shacked up against the moon,
E C#m G#m A B E
and I?ll be right there, I?ll be your blanket on the moon
E G#m C#m B
the day the earthship came, I was thrilled to see the light
E C#m F# A
and I waved with all my heart to show the humans I was alright
E G#m C#m B
but as the ship got closer it wasn't the kind that lands
E C#m F# A
more the kind that comes from an air missile defense
F# A F# A
and just as I felt the first shock from the supersonic front
Pre-Chorus
C#m A
I was catapulted into space by the exothermic guns
B
and I hope I find someone soon, someone who won?t destroy their moon,
B7 E
when all my wounds are cauterized, no xenophobic enterprise
E C#m G#m A B
and I?ll be right there, when you?re shacked up against the moon,
E C#m C#
and I?ll be right there
F#m B E G#m A
and now I?m reaching out again, I?m reaching out again, I?m reaching out for someone to help me down
F#m B C#m
I?m reaching out again, reaching out again for someone to help me out
F#m B E G#m A
I?m reaching out again, I?m reaching out again, I?m reaching out for someone to help me down
F#m B
I?m reaching out again, reaching out again

Pre-Chorus

and I hope I find someone soon, someone who won?t destroy their moon,
B7 E
when all my wounds are cauterized, no xenophobic enterprise
E C#m G#m A B
and I?ll be right there, when you?re shacked up against the moon
E C#m C#
I?ll be right there
E C#m G#m A B
and I?ll be right there, only once removed,
E C#m C#
and I?ll be right there
E G#m C#m B
last thing I remember, I grabbed onto a microsphere
E C#m F# A
and I must?ve been talking in my sleep to all those who could hear
E G#m C#m B
because I woke up in mid-conversation with these little critters in formal dress
E C#m F# A
and they motioned for me to come as if I?d already said yes
F# A F# A
they said I was lucky to be alive they did not think anything survived
Outro

a better life awaits you soon
