CHORDS + LYRICS

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[D]Are you going to the disc[DMaj7]o hey?
Are you hoping that you'll all g[D7]et laid?
When there are i[D6]nterstellar clouds on the Sussex Downs
[D]Were you hoping that you might get paid?[DMaj7]
But on the way did you get wayla[D7]id?
And now [D6]tomorrow keeps coming, tomorrow keeps coming today
[D]Again and again and agai[DMaj7]n...
[D7]Again and again and agai[D6]n...
[D]Tomorrow keeps coming to[DMaj7]day...
[D7]Tomorrow keeps coming to[D6]day...
Again and again and again...

(repeat chords)

Luna was a strange girl, she was pretty mad
When we felt sorry for ourselves she'd say it's not so bad
even the galaxies weep for the suns and the stars they'll never be
We all laughed but we also felt quite sad
So hey now, just put the fucking record on and tell my why
Oh hey now, just put the fucking kettle on and tell me how

A Ballardian nightmare erupted and now we all share
One thought, one love and one idea

If you want it, you can have it all
If you're needy come to me
If you like to, you can take it
It's not really complicated...

(these chords are from the bass guitar so i'm just predicting what the chords would be)

[Em]Oh, [D]oh but these[Bm] aren't the answ[F#m]ers, these are not the answers f[Em]or y[D]ou [Bm]or m[F#m]e
I thought we had a deal
[Em]But [D]tomorrow kee[Bm]ps coming today,[F#m] again and again and again...[Em][D][Bm][F#m]
[Em] [D] [Bm] [F#m] [Em][D][Bm][F#m]

[D]So go forth, go forth Luna, go forth, go forth L[DMaj7]una
[D]So go forth, go forth Luna, go forth, go forth L[DMaj7]una
