[D] [Bm] [F#m] [E] [D]Ooh, [Bm] [F#m]ooh, ooh [E]ooh.

I’m building this [D]house on the [Bm]moon Like a [F#m]lost [E]astronaut Looking at [D]you like a [Bm]star From a [F#m]place the world [E]forgot

[D]And there’s nothing, [Bm]that I can [F#m]do Except bury my love for [E]you

The brightness of the [D]sun, will give me just [Bm]enough To bury my love [F#m]in the [E]moondust I long to hear your [D]voice, but still i made the [Bm]choice To bury my love [F#m]in the [E]moondust

Nothing can [D]breath, in the [Bm]space Colder [F#m]than, the darkest [E]sea I have [D]dreams, about the [Bm]days Driving [F#m]through, your sunset [E]breeze

[D]And the first thing, [Bm]that I will [F#m]do Is bury my love for [E]you

The brightness of the [D]sun, will give me just [Bm]enough To bury my [F#m]love, in the [E]moondust I long to hear your [D]voice But still i made the [Bm]choice To bury my [F#m]love, in the [E]moondust

I’m a [F#m]castaway, men [Bm]reap what they sow And I [D]say what I know, to be [E]true I’m living [F#m]far away, on the [Bm]face of the moon I [D]buried my love to give the world to [E]you

The brightness of the [D]sun, will give me just [Bm]enough To bury my [F#m]love, in the [E]moondust I long to hear your [D]voice, but still i made the [Bm]choice

To bury my [F#m]love, in the [E]moondust
