D                       G7/D
The lunatic is on the grass.
D                       G7/D
The lunatic is on the grass.
D                      E/D
Remembering games and daisy chains and laughs.
A7                              D  Dsus2
Got to keep the loonies on the path.

The lunatic is in the hall
The lunatics are in my hall
The paper holds their folded faces to the floor
And every day the paperboy brings more

Chorus:
G                           A
And if the dam breaks open many years too soon
    C                             G
And if there is no room upon the hill
G                               A7
And if your head explodes with dark forebodings too
      C                               G  Bm7 Em7 A A7
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon.

The lunatic is in my head
The lunatic is in my head
You raise the blade
You make the change

You rearrange me till I'm sane
You lock the door
And throw away the key
There's someone in my head but it's not me.

Chorus:
And if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear
You shout and no one seems to hear
And if the band you're in starts playing different tunes
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon

I can't think of anything to say except
Hahahahahahaha!
I think it's marvellous!
Hahaha...
