[E] So [B] I wrote this song when I moved to Botany.
First time I'd ever [A#] seen people living in the street.
When I was sitting before, you've never seen [B] that.
It's the most shocking thing.
And you look [A#m] around and [A] [B] then six months [A#] later, I went to the city.
[A] And the people you can see, and the [D#] animals,
[A] and they all stop and just sit on the road.
[E]
And the sun came up [B] down on [F#] the road.
Saying hello, new day.
[E]
It shone [B] on my back like a [F#]
father's [B] hand.
Saying my son, how do you [E] do?
Sun goes up, moon [C#] goes down.
I look at [F#] you from the sky.
The pleasure of old things, [B] she never [E] brought.
And a bum lay down [F#] in a rain wet [B] street.
Saying I don't care, I [E] don't
[D#m] [E] have time to read.
[B] In this [F#] cold dark world of things that [E] keep me.
[F#] Sun goes up, moon goes [C#] down.
[F#] I look at you from the [B] sky.
The pleasure of old things, you still [E] love.
And on the wings of Jackson, [F#m] he flew to life.
[B] Till he fell to the [E] sea.
And the ships sailed [F#] on, and the farm of [B] life.
[F#] And the day passed [E] gracefully.
Sun [F#] goes up, moon goes [C#]
down.
I look at you from the sky.
The pleasure of old things, you [E] still love.
Sun goes up, moon goes [D#]
down.
[F#] I look at you from the sky.
[B] Still.
[E] [F#]

Sun [F#] goes up, moon goes [C#]
down.
I look at you from the sky.
The pleasure of old things, you [E] still love.
Sun goes up, moon goes [D#]
down.
[F#] I look at you from the sky.
[B] Still.
