                      Bm           D 
I'm building this house on the moon 
          F#m        E 
Like a lost astronaut 
              Bm           D 
Looking at you, like a star 
             F#m            E 
From the place the world forgot 


Bm                   D             F#m 
  And there's nothing that I can do 
                        E 
Except bury my love for you 


                      Bm 
The brightness of the sun 
                   D                    F#m 
Will give me just enough to bury my love 
             E 
In the moondust 
                    Bm 
I long to hear your voice 
                     D                     F#m 
But still I make the choice to bury my love 
             E 
In the moondust 


(Basically it's the same chords for the rest of the song, even the bridge) 


Nothing can breathe in the space 
Colder than the darkest sea 
I have dreams about the days 
Driving through your sunset breeze 


But the first thing that I will do 
Is bury my love for you 


The brightness of the sun 
Will give me just enough to bury my love 
In the moondust 
I long to hear your voice 
But still I make the choice to bury my love 
In the moondust 


I'm a castaway 
Men reap what they sow 
And I say what I know to be true 
Yeah I'm living far away 
On the face of the moon 
I buried my love to give the world to you 


The brightness of the sun 
Will give me just enough to bury my love 
In the moondust 
I long to hear your voice 
But still I make the choice to bury my love 
In the moondust 


I buried my love 
In the moondust yeah
