When I was young I told my mum gonna walk on the moon someday[/tab]
[tab]
Armstrong and Aldrin spoke to me through Houston and Cape Kennedy[/tab]
[tab] (arp.)
and I watched the Eagle landing on a night when the moon was full[/tab]
[tab]
and as it tugged at the tides I knew that deep inside I too could feel[/tab]
[tab] $
its pull[/tab]
x2
[tab]
I lie in my bed and dreamed I walked on the sea of tranquillity[/tab]
[tab]
I knew that someday soon we d all sail to the moon on the high tide of[/tab]
[tab]
technology[/tab]
[tab] (arp.)
but the dreams had all been taken and the window seats taken too[/tab]
[tab]
and two thousand & one has almost come and gone what am I supposed to do?[/tab]
[chorus]:
[tab]
now that the space race is over its been and its gone and I ll never get[/tab]
[tab]
to the moon[/tab]
[tab]
now that the space race is over and I can t help but feel that we ve all[/tab]
[tab] $
grown up too soon[/tab]
x2
[tab]
now my dreams have all been shattered and my wings are tattered too[/tab]
[tab]
and I can still fly but not half as high as once I wanted to[/tab]
[tab]
now that the space race is over its been and its gone and I ll never get[/tab]
[tab]
to the moon[/tab]
[tab]
now that the space race is over and I can t help but think that we ve all[/tab]
[tab] $
grown up too soon[/tab]
x2
[tab]
my son and I stand beneath the great night sky and we gaze up in wonder[/tab]
[tab]
I tell him the tale of apollo and he says yeah but why did they ever go?[/tab]
[tab]
It may look like some empty gesture to go all that was just to come[/tab]
E (arp.)
back
[tab]
but don t offer me a place out in cyber space coz where in the hell s[/tab]
that at?
[tab]
now that the space race is over its been and its gone and I ll never get[/tab]
[tab]
out of my room[/tab]
[tab]
now that the space race is over and I can t help but think that we re all[/tab]
[tab]
just going nowhere[/tab]
