Verse 1:
G
I opened up my eyes to see
F C G F C
A land of sunny rocks and funny trees
G
I guess (Yes,) I'm on the moon again
F C G F C
A heavy earth exchange a lighter breeze
G
Got no coat and got no money
F C G F C
A pair of tennis shoes to last through May
G
A crater for an outdoor pool
F C G F C
A few good cats to help me pass the day
Chorus:
G F C
Havin' a good time, here today
G F C
Watching the sun shine, matinee
F/C
Never the wrong time, time we stay
G F C
Living the moontime, time we play
Verse 2:
From here I watch the world go by
Working in the moon-time bar and grill
The word from Earth - my time is up
But here upon the moon time stands still
Got no telecommunications
Cables haven't gotten out this way
The man in the moon is a musician
That's the way we pass the lunar day
(Chorus)
Living the moontime, time to live it up!
