     Em        D
Oh I can't get over this moon

     Em           D
And all creatures under the sun

Dm                 G7         C   C/B C/Bb  A
Move through their days in a state of oblivion
[Chorus]
                    Dm       G
Stars don't owe you anything

                              Dm     G
Don't give a damn about your nations

                         Dm   G
Fear the slightest obligation

G
I mean, listen

C           C/B         F                G
What if the world goes spinning off its axis?

C              C/B             F             G7
And what if the moon begins to wane before it waxes?

Wrapped in darkness

Take my hand

Eb/Bb                      F
Through all the chambers of the underland

Ab                     Eb
Like this penny on the railroad track

        D                        G           G7
If you go too far, you know you can't go back
[Verse]
Em          D
I've never been here before

Em           D
Deep inside Earth's molten core

Dm              G7           C C/B C/Bb  A
Oh no need for clothes or for eyes to see
[Chorus]
                    Dm          G
So find yourself a pair of ears

                       Dm          G
Gonna be down here for many years

                             Dm                G
Just listen out for that subterranean river of tears

C           C/B
Not exactly hell

F                     G
More like a nocturnal paradise

C                        C/B
Not exactly heaven either

    F         G6          G7
I'd say 'bout half as nice
[Bridge]
Cm
We're at the end now

Cm/B
You've run aground
En/Bb F And all the sound waves have gone underground Ab En There's a threshold between the here and hereafter
D                                     G6         G7
To cross a river, you know you gotta take a raft there
[Break] Em D Em D Dm G7 C C/B C/Bb A [Chorus]

Stars don't owe you anything

Don't give a damn about your nations

                         Dm   G
Fear the slightest obligation

   Dm          G              Dm  G
Oh I can't get over this moon now

   Dm          G              Dm  G
Oh I can't get over this moon
