  			Intro: Dbdim D Dm D Dm         
         
 D                     G7               
  The lunatic is on the grass         
 D                     G7           
  The lunatic is on the grass         
 D                           E         
  Remembering games, and daisy chains and laughs         
  A7sus4                         D         
  Got to keep the loonies on the path         
 D                      G7         
  The lunatic is in the hall         
 D                       G7        
  The lunatics are in my hall         
  D                            E         
  The paper holds their folded faces to the floor         
       A7                            D   D7          
  And every day the paper boy brings more         
 G                           A          
  And if the dam breaks open many years too soon         
 C                                  G         
  And if there is no room upon the hill         
   G                               A            
  And if your head explodes with dark forebodings too         
        C                                G  Bm Em A        
  I'll see you on the dark side of the moon         
 D                     G7         
  The lunatic is in my head         
 D                     G7           
  The lunatic is in my head         
  D                        E          
  You raise the blade, you make the change         
  A7                          D          
  You re-arrange me 'till I'm sane         
 D                      E        
  You lock the door and throw away the key         
 A7                                       D  D7      
  There's someone in my head but it's not me         
 G                           A         
  And if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear         
 C                              G         
  You shout and no one seems to hear         
 G                                   A           
  And if the band you're in starts playing different tunes         
   C                                      G  Bm Em A         
  I'll see you on the dark side of the moon         
        

Break: D7  D/C B A
