[Intro]
D G G/B Am Dm D
[Verse]
G G/B
All of the astronauts
Am
Champagne in plastic cups
Bb D G
Waiting for the big hero to show
G G/B
Outside the door he stands
Am
His head in his hands
Bb D
and his heart in his throat
[Chorus]
C G
What can he tell them now?
Bb A
Sorry I let you down
Bb D G
Sorry it wasn't quite true
C G
But don't get hung up on it
Bb A
Just soldier on with it
C D G
And good luck with shooting the moon
G7 C
Shooting the moon
A
Shooting the moon
C D G
Shooting the moon
[Verse]
G G/B Am
All of the principals, Generals admirals
Bb D G
and the podium lit with the spotlight
G G/B Am
The crowd buzzes quietly waiting expectantly
Bb D
like it's opening night
[Chorus]
C G
What can he tell them now?
Bb A
Sorry I let you down
Bb D G
Sorry it wasn't quite true
C G
But don't get hung up on it
Bb A
Just soldier on with it
C D G
And good luck with shooting the moon
G7 C
Shooting the moon
A
Shooting the moon
C D G
Shooting the moon
