[C#m]
Under the [B] wide and starry sky, [C#m] Dig the grave [B] and let me lie.
[C#m] Gladly did I live [B] and gladly did I die, [F#] And [C#m] I laid me [B]
down [C#m] with a will.
This be the verse [B] you grave for [C#m] me, Here he lies [B] where he longed to be.
[C#m] Home is the [B] sailor, home from the sea, And [C#m] the hunter, [B] home [C#m] from the ill.
You built the ships [B] that boldly [C#m] fly between the earth and moon,
[B] But you cannot fly yourself and [C#m] you're gonna die too soon.
[B] For your bones are [C#m] brittle and your heart is weak,
[B] And you'll never touch [C#m] the lunar soil, [G#m] Never feel the lunar [C#m] gravity.
So you hire two [B] men who've spaced before, [G#] But now are trapped [C#m] on the ground.
[B] One who is fired for drinking, [G#] And one for bringing [C#m] diamonds down.
[B] And they spend your money on [C#m] a strato [B]-yacht, And make it fit [G#] to fly out [B] there,
Far [G#m] beyond old Terra's [C#m] gravity.
But still men try [B] to stop [G#] you, To keep you on the [C#m] ground,
[B] But your mechanic slugs the sheriff, [G#] And then you're [C#m] outward bound.
[B] And you gaze out through [C#m] the viewport, At [B] a million [G#] naked stars,
[B] As you float in the zero [C#m] gravity.
And then the [B] rockets fire once [G#] more, And your form is wrapped [C#m] with pain,
[B] And they put you in your space suit, [G#] And take you out upon the lunar [C#m] plane.
[B] And the blue-green earth [C#m] floats overhead, [B] And the moon soils [C#] at your back,
As [B] you lie [G#m] in the lunar [C#m] gravity.
Under the [B] wide and starry sky, [C#m] Dig the grave [B] and let me lie.
[C#m] Gladly did I live, [B] and gladly did I [C#m] die, And I laid [B] me down [C#m] with a will.
This be the verse [B] you grave for me, [C#m] Here he lies where [B] he longed to be.
[C#m] Home is the [G#]
sailor, [B] home from the sea, [C#m] And the hunter, [B]
home from [C#m] the hill.
