D-DU-UDU
I  was shakin in my shoes
 the day  I heard the news
 said the deal  has been done
  cmin [G#] c#min
 the moon just bought out the sun
 I'd heard of the deal
   cmin
 but never thought it was real
 said if the sun  don't shine
  cmin G# c#min
 if you wanna live there ain't no use in tryin
 Now the preachers were a prayin
   cmin
 and the old farmers kept sayin
 if tomorrow  the sun don't rise
  cmin G# c#min
 I'm afraid I won't open my eyes
 so the people gathered round
   cmin
 and nobody made a sound
 said if the rooster  refuses to crow
  cmin G# c#min
 the fields will cease to grow
 there eyes stared to the sky
   cmin
 and noone could cry
 said there is  no more doubt
  cmin G# c#min
 as they watched the sun slowly burn out
 now the drunkards loosened a buckle
   cmin
 and the wise men began to chuckle
 said if the sun  don't come back soon
  cmin G# c#min
 we'll never see the moon
 now the moon realized his mistake
   cmin
 and grew red in the face
 said my lesson  has been learned
  cmin G# c#min
 when you don't think you're bound to get burned
