Blanket On The Moon

E G#m C#m B

[Verse 1]
        E               G#m       
so they left me sitting here, I 
       C#m          B
saw them talking with themselves
          E              C#m  
about the way, about the way, I 
        F#           A
would hopefully be found
           E                     
then they crouched down nice and 
G#m          C#m             B
low and they whispered in my ear
           E             C#m      
about the land about the land, 
        F#             A          
that would have me in the end, my 
    F#              A
mother whispered to me again


[Pre-Chorus]
 E         G#m           C#m     
goodbye my love, this is where I 
      G#m     A                  B
disappear, remember to drink and eat
                 E              B 
make your transmissions 
             C#m                F#
religiously and a ship will come 
           B                  
for you I swear just keep your 
     E
blanket on the moon


[Verse 2]
             E              G#m   
she said the earth is right there,
         C#m          B
 a mere light second away
         E              C#m       
and the humans all look up in the 
F#            A
most peculiar way
              E                    
with that she brushed the moondust 
G#m     C#m                B
off and turned to hide her tears
E              C#m                
are you coming back? I asked, she 
 F#               A
said it could be years
     F#                 A         
that I should get some rest, then 
    F#                    A       
she tucked me in for the last time
        F#                 A
 as her heart broke in her chest


[Pre-Chorus]
 E     G#m           C#m  
bye my love, this is where I 
         G#m      A               
disappear, remember to drink and 
  B
eat
                 E              B 
make your transmissions 
             C#m                F#
religiously and a ship will come 
           B                  
for you I swear just keep your 
     E                             
blanket on the moon,
 E

B                     E
a better life awaits you


[Chorus]
    E  C#m        G#m            
and I’ll be right there, when 
     A                     B
you’re shacked up against the moon,
Continúa después del anuncio
    E  C#m        G#m            
and I’ll be right there, I’ll be 
     A              B      E
your blanket on the moon


[Verse 3]
     E                G#m       
the day the earthship came, I was 
   C#m                 B
thrilled to see the light
      E                 C#m    
and I waved with all my heart to 
           F#            A
show the humans I was alright
    E                G#m      C#m
but as the ship got closer it 
                  B
wasn't the kind that lands
          E        C#m            
more the kind that comes from an 
F#            A
air missile defense
              F#              A   
and just as I felt the first shock
           F#         A
 from the supersonic front


[Pre-Chorus]
      C#m                          
I was catapulted into space by the 
A
exothermic guns
      B
and I hope I find someone soon, 
someone who won’t destroy their 
moon,
      B7                           
when all my wounds are cauterized, 
                          E
no xenophobic enterprise


[Chorus]
    E  C#m        G#m            
and I’ll be right there, when 
     A                     B
you’re shacked up against the moon,
    E  C#m        C#
and I’ll be right there


[Bridge]
                         F#m       
and now I’m reaching out again, I’m
              B                  
 reaching out again, I’m reaching 
         E          G#m      A
out for someone to help me down
                 F#m               
I’m reaching out again, reaching 
   B                           C#m
out again for someone to help me out
                  F#m              
I’m reaching out again, I’m 
      B                           
reaching out again, I’m reaching 
E          G#m      A
out for someone to help me down
                 F#m               
I’m reaching out again, reaching 
   B
out again


[Solo]
E G#m C#m B
E C#m F#  A
E G#m C#m B
E C#m F#  A F#  A



[Pre-Chorus]
      B
and I hope I find someone soon, 
someone who won’t destroy their 
moon,
      B7                           
when all my wounds are cauterized, 
                         E
no xenophobic enterprise


[Chorus]
    E  C#m        G#m            
and I’ll be right there, when 
     A                    B
you’re shacked up against the moon
E  C#m        C#
I’ll be right there
    E  C#m        G#m         A 
and I’ll be right there, only 
     B
once removed,
    E  C#m        C#
and I’ll be right there


[Verse 4]
 E             G#m               
last thing I remember, I grabbed 
C#m          B
onto a microsphere
      E             C#m          
and I must’ve been talking in my 
F#                 A
sleep to all those who could hear
          E         
because I woke up in 
          G#m                      
mid-conversation with these little 
 C#m                B
critters in formal dress
          E                 C#m   
and they motioned for me to come 
         F#           A
as if I’d already said yes
                F#           A    
they said I was lucky to be alive 
              F#             A
they did not think anything survived

 E         G#m           C#m
