Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Fell  in the door
 And you fell  on the floor
 With your hand  on the knob
 Looking up  and abruptly
 Forget  what you're thinking
Fire  alarms go off  in your head you live
 In the nightgown  of the  sullen moon
 How the windows  lean into  the room
 In the nightgown  of the  sullen moon
 Fill:
Drug  trip. it's not a drug  trip  so you feel  a bit insulted
Space  walk. It's like a space  walk  with the corresponding  weight  loss
 And you're nothing but air, with your hand in the air
 And your shoelaces tied up together with care
 There's a feeling of boredom, of the big whoredom
 Following dressing up
 In the nightgown of the sullen moon
 How the windows lean into the room
 In the nightgown of the sullen moon
 In the nightgown of the sullen moon
 How the windows lean into the room
 In the nightgown of the sullen moon
 Your head is on the moon
 It's not necessary to breathe
 Forever is a long time
 Your head is on the moon
 It's not necessary to breathe
 Forever is a long time
 Your head is on the moon
 Your head is on the moon

It's not necessary to breathe
Forever is a long time

Your head is on the moon
It's not necessary to breathe
Forever is a long time
Your head is on the moon
Your head is on the moon
