Space Shanty

       F                        
Oh the whiskey is floating won't 
 F
stay in me glass.
    C                          
I'm weightless and spinning and 
 C           F
drunk off me ass.
       F                       
Oh the whiskey is floating in a 
  F
sphere o'er me head.
      C                        
If we don't clear this porthole 
       Bb       F
we'll surely be dead.

[Chorus]
    F                          
Oh, reach for the whiskey boys, 
 F            Bb
reach for the stars.
     F                         C
They won't stop us drinkin' on Venus
 or Mars,
   F                           F    
        Bb (hold)
so reach for the whiskey boys, reach
 for the sky.
        let ring                 
silent          F
For the vacuum of space sucks the 
bottles all dry.

[Verse 2]
       F                      
Oh infinite booty awaits us in 
   F
space.
        C                     
We'll pillage and plunder with 
  C        F
fervor and grace.
      F                         F
That's what my astronomical unit is 
for.
Continues after the ad
      C                       Bb  
Let's party where no one has 
     F
partied before.

[Chorus]
    F                          
Oh, reach for the whiskey boys, 
 F            Bb
reach for the stars.
     F                         C
They won't stop us drinkin' on Venus
 or Mars,
   F                           F    
        Bb (hold)
so reach for the whiskey boys, reach
 for the sky.
        let ring                 
silent          F
For the vacuum of space sucks the 
bottles all dry.

[Bridge]
  Dm                    ~
A-lone in the cockpit I look at the 
stars.
  Dm                       C     C 
(slow)
I drink, and I think of my home. 
(And he thinks of his home)

[Verse 3]
      F                         F
Our thrusters are the hottest that 
you've every felt.
   C                         
They might just unbuckle your 
  C       F
asteroid belt.
      F                         F
We're honing our moonwalking skills 
as we speak.
      C                     Bb    
We'll dance on Uranus by this time
     F
 next week.

[Chorus]
    F                          
Oh, reach for the whiskey boys, 
 F            Bb
reach for the stars.
     F                         C
They won't stop us drinkin' on Venus
 or Mars,
   F                           F    
        Bb (hold)
so reach for the whiskey boys, reach
 for the sky.
        let ring                 
silent          F
For the vacuum of space sucks the 
bottles all dry.

[Chorus]
    F                          
Oh, reach for the whiskey boys, 
 F            Bb
reach for the stars.
     F                         C
They won't stop us drinkin' on Venus
