Astronaut Chords

(ver. 1)
Gregory Alan Isakov
Chords:

It sounds best if you add a base note of G to the C chords and C to the Fmaj7. 
Gives a fuller sound.

G chord sounds better if you play as shown (technically a G6add11 or Cmaj9)

Listen to the song for strum pattern - best to give emphasis on base notes.

C/G
I work mornings in the old yard

E7
digging in the ground

Fmaj7
but I moonlight as an astronaut

C/G                        G
mostly just sit around and howl



C/G
won't you come to my house tonight

E7
we could sleep on the floor

Fmaj7
I got this window that looks out to Orion

C/G             G
I paid extra for



Am
oh forget about the sun

Em
he's forgotten us by now

Fmaj7                   C/G (quiet strum)
kiss me so I remember how



Am
we'll turn these sorrows into strangers

Fmaj7
buy them a ticket on the train

C/G
drop 'em off at the station 

E7
watch 'em ride far away


Fmaj7           Am      C/G  x3
far away . . .

Fmaj7           C/G     G       (end on C/G)
far away...
