The Dwarf Planet Song

D

[Verse 1]

G            D
Let's have a talk, Pluto
A                   Bm
We know you've been feeling blue
G                 Bm
They changed your class
          A                 D
So you go blame it on the I.A.U.
G                  D
Now you're a dwarf planet
           A                           Bm
And you're not thrilled it's plain to see
            G                   Bm
But if you look at what makes a planet great
    A
The dwarves have two out of three
G              D          A                  Bm
You orbit a star and your star is called the Sun
G               Bm          A
You have enough gravity to make you round
           D
But you're missing one

G                 D
Do you clear your surroundings?
      A                                  Bm
Dwarf planets don't clear their neighbourhood
           G                    Bm
They don't have enough mass but join the class
      A
If you don't know their names you should!

[Chorus]

G          D        A          Bm
Ceres, Makemake, Haumea, Eris, Pluto

G          Bm       A          D
Ceres, Makemake, Haumea, Eris, Pluto

(repeat)

[Verse 2]
    G                        D
I'm Ceres, I'm dark but I have bright spots
            Bm                  A
I'm the biggest in the asteroid belt
               G
And I've got nine hour days,
         Bm
If you sleep you missed them
            A                    D
I'm the only dwarf in the inner Solar System

       G                          D
I'm Makemake and I take my time orbiting the Sun
          A                             Bm
More than three hundred earth years for me is just one
        G                   Bm
You can tell who I am by my reddish brown hue
             A                            D
They used to call me Easterbunny. Look it up, it's true

         D
I'm Haumea and they argued over who really found me
       A
I've got two moons and a ring around me
      Em                     Bm
My shape is warped because I spin so fast
       G                C         D
In a four hour blaze my days go past

    C5
I'm Eris and there is no stranger orbit than this
A5   C5
Cause we bend the rules, where I'm at in the Scattered Disc
I've been hearing some confusion in the past
G
Pluto may be bigger but I got more mass

Gm            D
      And I'm Pluto
             D/C
To the eight Planets I say Farewell
         G                                      Gm
I've got five moons, and one's so large, that I orbit is as well
  D                D/C
I enjoy my days of blue skies and red snow
         G                 Gm              D
But I send my love with my Tombaugh Regio  Ooooooo


       G                D
And as astronomers keep up their studies
     A                            Bm
They might find our other dwarf planet buddies
               G                    Bm
There could be hundreds more in our system alone
      A
For now they remain unknown, except for

[Chorus]
G          D     A             Bm
Ceres, Makemake, Haumea, Eris, Pluto

G          Bm    A             D
Ceres, Makemake, Haumea, Eris, Pluto
