E A x4
G E
Once there was a pilgrim
A
He was lonely as a broom
E Bm E
He had teh idea, to build the moon
E
He started with an onion
A
And then he let it dry
E
He rang it like a bell
A
And it made him cry
F#m A
Then he covered it up
E
With dust and dirt
F#m A
Then he made it hollow
E
So it wouldn't hurt
F#m A
Then he cut the ropes
E
And it came unwound
D F#m
Then he raised it up
E
Up off the ground
F#m C#m
Now the moon is a hangin
A
In the sky
F#m C#m
Shakin the oceans
A
And movin' the tide
F#m C#m
And if his calculations
A
Was not true
Bm A
Then we might not be lonely
E
Looking at the moon
E A x2
E
Somebody once asked
A
The astronauts
E
Who built the moon?
A
But they would not
E
Talk about the pilgrim
A
And his lonely self
E G#m
Looking down on the earth
A
All by his self
D F#m
But they was really worried
E
About his lonely bones
D F#m
Said can we send a mission
E
To bring him home
D F#m
But by the time the apollow
E
It touched down
F#m
He was hiding in a hole
E
Under ground
F#m C#m
Now the moon is a hangin
A
In the sky
C#m
Shakin the oceans
A
And moving the tide
F#m C#m
And if his calculations
A
Was not true
Bm A
Then we may not be lonely
E
Looking at the moon
