E     F#m  E   G#m F#m E          B         A      x2


E     F#m  E       G#m F#m E     B                  A
When I was young I told my mum    gonna walk on the moon someday


E        F#m  E      G#m  F#m E     B                          A
Armstrong and Aldrin spoke to me     through Houston and Cape Kennedy


       C#m         A     E            A                        E (arp.)
and I watched the Eagle landing  on a night when the moon was full


           A            G#m                A     E       B
and as it tugged at the tides  I knew that deep inside I too could feel

    A        $
its pull


E    F#m E   G#m F#m E     x2


   E   F#m  E          G#m F#m E       B                    A
I lie in my bed and dreamed I walked     on the sea of tranquillity

  E               F#m  E              G#m F#m E      B
I knew that someday soon we'd all   sail to the moon  on the high tide of
                                                                   A
                                                              technology

         C#m       A         E            A                   E (arp.)
but the dreams had all been taken and the window seats taken too

         A        G#m              A       E           B
and two thousand & one has almost come and gone what am I supposed to do?

chorus:
               A            E        A            E             A
now that the space race is over its been and its gone and I'll never get
        E
to the moon
               A             E         A              E               B
now that the space race is over and I can't help but feel  that we've all
              A     $
grown up too soon


E F#m  E   G#m  F#m  E     x2


        C#m        A          E               A                 E
now my dreams have all been shattered and my wings are tattered too

       A        G#m           A     E        B
and I can still fly but not half as high as once I wanted to


               A            E        A            E             A
now that the space race is over its been and its gone and I'll never get
        E
to the moon
               A             E         A              E               B
now that the space race is over and I can't help but think that we've all
              A        $
grown up too soon


E F#m  E   G#m  F#m  E     x2


   E          F#m     E         G#m  F#m   E   B                   A
my son and I stand beneath the great night sky  and we gaze up in wonder

E          F#m  E     G#m F#m E            B                       A
I tell him the tale of apollo  and he says yeah but why did they ever go?

        C#m       A          E            A
It may look like some empty gesture to go all that was just to come
    E (arp.)
back

          A          G#m          A       E         B
but don't offer me a place out in cyber space  coz where in the hell's
                                                               that at?

               A            E        A            E             A
now that the space race is over its been and its gone and I'll never get
           E
out of my room
               A             E         A              E               B
now that the space race is over and I can't help but think that we're all
              A
just going nowhere
