Biography:
Kevin Shinyribs Russell is known as the front man of the Austin TX musical combo, The Gourds. Born in Beaumont TX, raised in The Church Of Christ he found his calling in biker bars of Louisiana at the tender age of seventeen playing a hybrid of loud country blues rock and psychedelic swamp jangle for the grumpy ingrates congregated there. His regionally notorious band, The Picket Line Coyotes did the college faux chitlin circuit until their demise in the early 90's.

[Verse 1]
E A A6
Once there was a pilgrim, he was lonely as a broom
E A A6
He had the idea, to build the moon
E A A6
He started with an onion and then he let it dry
E A A6
He rang it like a bell and it made him cry
[Pre-chorus]
A F#m E
Then he covered it up with dust and dirt
A F#m E
Then he made it hollow so it wouldn't hurt
A F#m E
Then he cut the ropes and it came unwound
A F#m E
Then he raised it up, up off the ground
[Chorus]
F#m C#m D A
Now the moon is a hangin in the sky
F#m C#m D A
Shakin the oceans and movin' the tide
F#m C#m D A
And if his calculations was not true
B7 A E
Then we might not be lonely looking at the moon
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]

Somebody once asked the astronauts:
E A A6
"Who built the moon?" But they would not
E A A6
Talk about the pilgrim and his lonely self
E A A6
Looking down on the earth all by his self
[Pre-chorus]
A F#m E
But they was really worried about his lonely bones
A F#m E
Said can we send a mission to bring him home?
A F#m E
But by the time the Apollo, it touched down
A F#m E
He was hiding in a hole, underground
[Chorus]
F#m C#m D A
Now the moon is a hangin in the sky
F#m C#m D A
Shakin the oceans and movin' the tide
F#m C#m D A
And if his calculations was not true
B7 A E
Then we might not be lonely looking at the moon
