I’m walk ing on (C7sus)moon beams;

for I was born with a sil ver (F5)spoon.

(Fmaj7)Hell, I’m gon na be me,

and I’m gon na be free.

Well, I’m walk ing on moon (Fmaj7)beams

and star ing out to sea.

And (F)if a door be (C7sus)closed,

a (C7)row n’t of (C7sus)homes start (F5)build

ing.

And tear your cur (C7sus)down, beams;

for sun was light with a is like (F5)gold.

(Fmaj7)Hell, you bet ter be you,

and do what you can do

when you’re walk ing on moon (Fmaj7)beams

and star ing out to sea.

’Cause (F)if your skin was (C7sus)soil,

how long do you think be fore they’d start (F5)dig ging?

And (F)if your life was (C7sus)gold,

how long do you think you’d stay

(F5)liv ing?

(F)And I love her (C7sus)so;

I would n’t trade her for

(F)gold.
