Verse 1:
E
Fell in the door
B
And you fell on the floor

With your hand on the knob

Looking up and abruptly
E
Forget what you’re thinking
B A
Fire alarms go off in your head you live
Chorus:
B E B A
In the nightgown of the sullen moon

How the windows lean into the room
B E B A
In the nightgown of the sullen moon

Drug trip. it’s not a drug trip so you feel a bit insulted
A A E A A E
Space walk. It’s like a space walk with the corresponding weight loss
Verse 2:
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
Chorus:
In the nightgown of the sullen moon
How the windows lean into the room
In the nightgown of the sullen moon
Chorus:
In the nightgown of the sullen moon
How the windows lean into the room
In the nightgown of the sullen moon
Outro:
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
