verse 1 
C                      D7                      C 
My horoscope warns me, don’t talk to strangers 
                          D7             C 
Talk dark and handsome or short bald and plain 
G 
My soothsayer says to sit tight 
                G7           C 
And wait for my stars to get rearranged 
          Am                F 
So, don’t talk to me, don’t talk to me 
                          G7         C 
’Cause I’m waiting for my heavens to change 


Move over Moon, get out of Uranus 
                                     G           C 
’Cause this house is anxious for the sun to come in 
            F                 Am 
’Cause it’s on the rise, it’s on the rise 
     D7              G 
It’s time for my new day to begin 
   C 
So move over Moon

verse 2 
  C                       Am 
I sit at my window by the first light of dawn 
C                         D         C      E 
Tapping on the glass as I worry out loud 
 G 
I’m waiting for a wind to blow 
    G7                     C      G7 
And break up this sinister cloud 
         C                         Am 
Till the stillness and calm of the early morning snaps 
        C                            G              C 
With the screeching of tires and the honking of the horns 
        G  
They’re pushing and shoving downtown 
                                C 
God knows nerves are frayed and badly torn 
            Am          F 
Still don’t talk to me, don’t bother me 
                      G         C 
I don’t know yet what aspect is formed 


Bridge 

Here is my nickel and here is my dime 
                         G 
Go down to the corner and buy me the Times 
    F           Am 
And look it up, look it up 
D7                       G 
Tell me if my planets are all in a line 
    C 
Oh, all in a line

Move over Moon, get out of Uranus 
                                     G           C 
’Cause this house is anxious for the sun to come in 
            F                 Am 
’Cause it’s on the rise, it’s on the rise 
     D7              G 
It’s time for my new day to begin 
   C 
So move over Moon
