Am                      G        C
Hey, have you heard the news for today?

We were listening to the air

Talking ‘bout the moon

Am
In that old cement truck
[Verse 2]
Am                  G                       C
Has that smile gone from that marble in the sky

C
Our friend from outer space

G
How could we let him go

Am
Shot from the smallest rock
[Chorus]
Em                   G                 D
Hey, have you heard? They shot the man on the moon

It don’t matter to those who don’t look up

Em                           G                   D
Take me back to those nights just staring at the moon

A                             Em             C G
With all us space cadets just playing in its light

Am                    G                    C
Oh we flew out in our home grown cardboard rocket

With nothing but our socks

In the winter time

Am
Only two-hundred and thirty thou away
[Verse 4]
Am                    G              C

A simple view of home

How could we let him go

Am
Shot from the smallest rock

We got lift off

Out here in the Cosmos

There he is

The man on the moon

With a smile he waved out

G
Ready the cannons
