By Kate Bush
From her classic album "Hounds of Love" (1985)
Please rate! I worked really hard on this! It's my favorite song of all time.
[C#m] Hello, earth. [G#m/B]
[F#m/A] Hello[B], earth.
[C#m] With just one hand held u[F#m/A]p high [B]
I can blot[C#m] you out, [G#m/B]
Out of sight. [C#m][G#m/B]
[F#m/A]Peek-A-boo,
Peek-a-boo, little earth.[B]
[C#m] With just my heart and my [F#m/A]mind [B]
I can be driving[C#m],
Driving home,
And you asle[F#m/A]ep
On the seat. [B]
I get out [A]of my car,
Step into [B]the night
And look up at the[C#m] sky.
And there's something [A]bright,
[B]Traveling fast.
Look at it go! [C#m]
Look at it go! [G#m/B]
(Men's Choral Part)
[Fsus4] [F] [F7] [Bb/F] [F] [F7][Bb/F]
[Fm] [Eb] [Ab/Eb] [Db/Eb] [Ab/Eb] [Eb][F]
[C#m] Hello earth,[G#m/B]
[F#m/A] Hell[B]o earth.
[C#m] Watching storms
[F#/A]Start to f[C#m]orm
Over america.
Can't do [F#m/A]anything.
Just wat[B]ch them swing
With the wind
Out to sea. [C#m]
[A/C#]All you sailors,[B]
([C#m]"get out of the waves! get out of the water!")
[A/C#]All life-savers,[B]
[C#m]("get out of the waves! get out of the water!")
[A/C#]All you cruisers,[B]
[C#m]("get out of the waves! get out of the water!")
All you fisher[A]men,
[B]Head for home. [A]
[B]Go to slee[C#m]p, little earth.
I was there[A] at the birth,
[B]Out of the cloudburst,
The head[C#m] of the tempest.
[A]Murderer!
[B]Murder of calm.
[C#m] Why did I go?
Why did I go? [G#m/B]
(Men's Choral Part)
[Fsus4] [F7] [Bb/F] [F] [F7] [Bb/F] [Fm][Eb][Ab/Eb][Db/Eb][Ab/Eb][Eb][F]
(Repeat two more times and then play high C#s above instrumentals)
(Spoken in a whisper)
Go to sleep little earth.
