_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ [C] _
_ [F] _ _ _ Sit down my [Bb] son, sit [Eb] here by my side And [Gm] drink a small cup here [Cm] with _ me
Here in the dimming [G] light and the chill I [Gm] welcome your [Cm]
company
_ _ _ Mother, [Eb] dear mother, why sit in [C] the dark [Bb] With machines and the [F] night all alone?
_ _ _ _ Township is [Eb] better, it's warm [C] and it's bright [Bb] And I miss you and you should [F] come home
_ Oh, turn son and look, [Eb] turn your face to the stars [Cm] And tell me the thing that you see
_ Look out ahead [G] and look truth in the face [Cm] And tell me what that thing would be
A great hole in space, I [C] don't like it here [Bb] Come away, oh [F] please come away
_ There's only machines and the cold and the dark _ [Gm] Please don't ask [F] me to stay
Oh son, my dear son, there [Eb]
once was a world [Cm] An [Gm] old world of silver [Cm] blue sky
We set out from there, [G] a lone sublight probe [Cm] McCullen and Johnny and I
But mother, dear [Eb] mother, I don't [F] know these things [Bb] The words make no [F] sense to _ me
What sky and what's [Eb] world, there's up, ship [F] and down [Bb] And inside and all [F] side and G
_ Oh son, there [C] once was [Eb] a world, not the ship [Cm] With a moon to lessen her night
We slept out our trip [G] at nine-tenths of sea [Cm] And waited for the end of our flight
_ Oh mama, they're [Eb] gone, Mac and [F] Johnny are dead _ [Bb] And we marked them all [F] out of the book
It's cold and I'm [Eb] scared, it's like falling [F] _
away _ [Bb] Mama, I don't [F] like to look
_ We slept out our [Bb] flight and [Eb] waked then to find Our [Cm] [Gm] waking was years [Cm] _
overdue
We had burned all our fuel and [G] beyond nine-tenths of light [Cm] There was nothing for us to do
_ Oh mama, dear mama, I [F] don't want to fall _ [Bb] Don't talk of this [G] thing in my sight
[F] Oh come away now, come back down, [F] ship with me And [Bb] come out from this cold, awful _ night
Oh, we're falling indeed, [Eb] you're quite right, my son From [Cm] before [Gm] your life was [Cm] begun
_ Forever we fall [G] toward universe end [Cm] And our journey will never be done
It's illusion, [Eb] mama, you've been [F] here too long [Bb] We're not really [F] moving at all
_ Oh, turn out the [Eb] stars and seal up [F] this place [Bb] Come down, ship, and into [F] the hall
_ Forever, my [C] son, for [Eb] time goes so slow [Cm] For ships at the threshold of sea
That the race of mankind [G] could ascend from the clay In the time that you've lived here with [Cm] me
_ Mother, oh mother, it's [F] driven you mad [Bb] There's no sense in the words that [F] you say
_ I've drunk up my cup, now finish your own [Bb] Come, turn out the [F] stars and away
_ Mac and [G] Johnny are gone, [Eb] son, the power ebbs down [Cm] Recycling [Gm] held [Cm] us a while
We had us a son, we taught him [G] to live [C] Forgive [Gm] us [Cm] and give me a smile
_ Mother, I'm [Eb] sleepy, oh mother, what's [C] wrong?
[Bb] What nonsense is this that [F] you say?
_ The hole is so dark [Eb] and so deep and so [C] black _ [Bb] Oh, turn out the stars, come [F] away
_ Oh, sleep now, my son, [Eb] the star bow is so bright [Cm] And the dark [Gm] so friendly [Cm] and deep
Last child of mankind, [G] before [Ab] the ship dies [G] My son, I [Gm] will sing you to sleep _ _ _ _
