[Verse 1]
Em A
Oh I can’t get over this moon
Em7 A
And all creatures under the sun
Am D G G/F# Em E
Move through their days in a state of oblivion
[Chorus]
Am7 D
Stars don’t owe you anything
Am D
Don’t give a damn about your nations
Am D
Or feel the slightest obligation
[Post-Chorus]
(D)
I mean, listen
G G/F# Am7 D7
What if the world goes spinning off its axis?
G G/F# Am7 D7 | D7 |
And what if the moon begins to wane before it waxes?

[Bridge 1]
Gm F#
Wrapped in darkness, you take my hand
A# C
Through all the chambers of the underland
D# A#
Like this penny on the railroad track
A D D7
If you go too far, you know you can't go back
[Verse]
Em7 A
Oh, I've never been here before
Em7 A
Deep inside earth's molten core
Am7 D G G/F# Em E
No need for clothes or for eyes to see
E7 Am7 D
So find yourself a pair of ears
Am7 D
Gonna be down here for many years
Am7 D
Just listen out for that subterranean river of tears
G G/F#
Well, not exactly hell
Am7 D7
More like a nocturnal paradise
G G/F#
Not exactly heaven either
Am7 D7 D7
I’d say 'bout half as nice
[Bridge 2]
Gm F#
We're at the end now, you've run aground
A# C
And all the sound waves have gone underground
Cm A#
There's a threshold between the here and hereafter
A D D7
To cross a river, you know you gotta take a raft.. there
[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Am7 D
Stars don’t owe you anything
Am D
Don’t give a damn about your nations
Am D
Or feel the slightest obligation
[Outro]

Ooo---oh, I can’t get over this moon now
Am D Am
Ooh, I can’t get over this moo--oon
