D Em7 G A
[Verse 1]
D Em7
It's 4 in the morning July of '69
G
Me and my sister
A
We crept down like shadows
D Em7
They're bringing the moon right down to our sitting-room
G A
Static and silence and a monochrome vision
[Chorus]
Bm
They're dancing around
Em7
Slow puppets silver ground
F#m Em
And the world was watching with joy
Bm Em
We hear a voice from above and it's history
F#m Em G
And we stayed awake all night
[Verse 2]
D Em7
And something is said and the whole room laughs aloud
G
Me and my sister
A
Looking on like shadows
D Em7
The end of an age as we watched them walk in a glow
G A
Lost in space, but I don't know where it is
[Chorus 2]
Bm
They're dancing around
Em7
Slow puppets silver ground
F#m Em
And the stars and stripes in the sand
Bm Em
We hear a voice from above and it's history
F#m Em G
And we stayed awake all night
[Instrumental]
D Em7 G A
C G C Gm D
[Chorus 3]
Bm
They're dancing around
Em7
It sends a shiver down my spine
F#m Em
And I run to look in the sky and
Bm
I half expect to hear them asking to come down
Em7
Oh, will they fly or will they fall?
F#m Em G D
To be excited by a long late night
