I DON”T WANT TO LIVE ON THE MOON - Ernie (Henson)


VERSE 1
           C       C/B       Am    Em
Well, I'd like to visit the moon 
       F           G          C
On a rocket ship high in the air 
          C       C/B       Am     Em
Yes, I'd like to visit the moon 
       F               G             C
But I don't think I'd like to live there 
            F            Fm           C
Though I'd like to look down at the earth from above 
         F             Fm         C
I would miss all the places and people I love 
      F               C         Em       Am
So although I might like it for one afternoon 
   F              G          C
I don't want to live on the moon 

VERSE 2
              C     C/B      Am    Em
I'd like to travel under the sea 
         F             G       C
I could meet all the fish everywhere 
           C     C/B      Am       Em
Yes, I'd travel under the sea 
       F               G             C
But I don't think I'd like to live there 
         F         Fm           C
I might stay for a day there if I had my wish 
             F          Fm              C
But there's not much to do when your friends are all fish 
         F         C           Em    Am
And an oyster and clam aren't real family 
      F              G          C
So I don't want to live in the sea 

BRIDGE
              F         C                G    C
I'd like to visit the jungle, hear the lions roar 
 F          C                G  C
Go back in time and meet a dinosaur 
             F             G    Em         Am
There's so many strange places I'd like to be 
     F            G      C
But none of them permanently 

VERSE 3
      C         C/B      Am      Em
So if I should visit the moon 
             F           G          C
Well, I'll dance on a moonbeam and then 
        C     C/B        Am      Em
I will make a wish on a star 
          F          G          C
And I'll wish I was home once again 
            F            Fm           C
Though I'd like to look down at the earth from above 
         F             Fm         C
I would miss all the places and people I love 
      F           C            Em         Am
So although I may go I'll be coming home soon 
          F             G           C
'Cause I don't want to live on the moon 
       F              G          C      C/B    Am    Em    F    G     C
No, I don't want to live on the moon
