[Verse 1]
Am               D
I arrive at the asylum
Am                 D
A makeshift funny farm
Am                D
An old abandoned castle where
G
section 8s can do no harm
Am                     D
I've been sent here on assignment
Am                D
The new doctor in charge
Am             D
To analyze the patients to see
G
who's real and who's a fraud

[Pre-chorus 1]
G                                 C
Then there's you, the paparazzi's favorite
G          C
The schizo astronaut
G                            C
You lost your marbles in the capsule right
G                       C
before it was ready for lift off

[Chorus]
C               D       G             C
Oh Captain, why are you afraid of the moon
C            D             G              C
Tell me your secret, I'll share mine with you
Bm          C
Why did you refuse
Bm                D
Le Voyage dans la lune

Continues after the ad
[Verse 2]
Am                   D
You broke out of the castle
Am                D
Got lost into the night
Am                 D
You found a little biker bar where you
G
thought that you could hide
Am              D
The king of the angels
Am             D
recognized the superstar
Am                 D
The demons and the horsemen broke you
G
like some cheap guitar

[Pre-chorus 2]
G                      C
They called me to come save you
G                C
My battered astronaut
G               C
Twinkle twinkle killer Kane came out
G                         C
killed every biker on the lot

[Chorus]
C               D       G             C
Oh Captain, why are you afraid of the moon
C            D             G              C
Tell me your secret, I'll share mine with you
Bm          C
Why did you refuse
Bm                D
Le Voyage dans la lune
Am D

Am      D

[Pre-chorus 3]
G                               C
Then there's you, you will find your marbles
G                 C
Get permission to take off
G             C
Your status reinstated to ride
G                   C
on that galactic molotov
G                         C
Now, give me your saint's medallion
G                 C
and just a little time
G                       C
I will prove to you and the whole world there is
G               C
pure self sacrifice

[Chorus]
C               D       G             C
Oh captain, why are you afraid of the moon
C                 D         G               C
Now tell me your secret, I shared mine with you
C              D               G            C
Oh captain, my captain, please tell me the truth
C            D            G            C
What kind of spaceman is afraid of the moon
Bm          C
Why did you refuse
Bm            C
It's only the moon
Bm          C
Why did you refuse
Bm                D
Le Voyage dans la lune
        D
