Man In The Sky Tabulatur von Connie Converse

[Verse]
Am                Em         Am     Em
There once was a girl in the olden days
Am            Em7          Am   D
Grew weary of men with a roving gaze -
Am         G              Am       G   Am
'Farewell, fickle lovers; goodbye, goodbye,
Am      E7              Am
For I'm falling in love with the man in the sky.'

[Verse]
A                               Bm
The man in the sky, he walks in haste
D7                                    C#m
With three bright buckles around his waist
C#m                                   Bm
And a great dog near and a little dog nigh
Am                        Em     A
And a steady gleam in his golden eye.

[Verse]
Am            Em       Am    Em
The girl went out on a windy hill
Am                 D         Am       D
And cried when the night was dark and still -
Am          G              Am       G
'Come down! come down! you man in the sky,
Am      Em               Am
Or else I am likely to pine and die.'

[Verse]
A                                 D7
The man in the sky didn't stop to talk;
D7                                A
He went right on with his evening walk
C#m                                         Bm
And the great dog howled and the little dog whined
Am                            Em     A
And the girl grew cold in the rising wynd.

[Verse]
Am              Em            Am         Em
She took to her bed from the light of the sun,
Am           D   Am             D7
But when the sun his course had run
Am       G      Am        Em
She went to her window so high, so high,
Am   E7                Am
And waited and watched Orion go by.

[Verse]
A                                D7
The man in the sky, he walked in haste
D7
With three bright buckles around his waist
C#m                                   Bm
And a great dog near and a little dog nigh
Am                         Em     A
And a gleam for her in his golden eye.

[Verse]
Am             Em          Am    Em
One night she stood on her windowsill
Am                D   Am        D
And stepped right out on the highest hill
Am                 G               Am      G
And climbed to the place where the planets are
Am   E7                      Am
And jumped from there to the nearest star.

[Verse]
A                           C#m
She rocked in Cassiopeia's chair
D7                                  C#m
And waked the dragon and roused the bear
C#m                                         Bm
And the great dog howled and the little dog whined
Am                     Bm            A
And the girl grew cold in the rising wynd.

[Verse]
Am        Em       Am         Em
She found Orion at last, and then
Am           D   Am              D7
She found he was just like other men.
D7   Am                   G
When on his shoulder her head she'd lay
Am            Em  Am
His eye was a million miles away.

[Verse]
A                                        D7
The great dog howled and the little dog whined
D7                                   D
And the girl grew cold in the rising wynd
C#m                                 Bm
And the dragon snarled and the lion roared
Am                 Em              Am
And the stars flew by in a golden horde.

[Verse]
Am   Em        Am             Em
This tale has a moral brief to tell;
Am             D   Am              D
And I won't go on, for you know it well.
D  Am        G           Caug      G
Remember the girl in the days gone by
Am            Em          Am
Who fell in love with the man in the sky.

[Verse]
A                          D7
She rocked in Cassiopeia's chair
D7                                  C#m
And waked the dragon and roused the bear;
C#m                         D7
And where they buried her I forget,
C#m                 Em           G   Am
But the man in the sky isn't married yet.
