D             G         A           D
Now young Mr. Moon flew away in the night

D                    G      A            D
With his best friend Magnus right by his side

D                       G         A            D
They soared through the Milky Way counting the stars

D           G      A            D  Dsus2
Once around Venus, twice around Mars

 
D                  G           A          D
Then they spied an island rise out of the sea

D                 G             A           D
They fell back to Earth just as free as you please

D                G            A                D
The children all gathered the church bells did ring

D        G        A          D
Suddenly everyone started to sing

D            G          A             D
Queen of the island she welcomed them in

D           G            A               D
Asking them questions of where they have been

D                G             A            D
She offered them chocolate she offered them tea

D                   G            A        D
They all took their seats in the top of a tree

D                    G            A                 D
And raccoons brought wine and the mice they brought cheese

D         G             A         D
Beautiful birds floated by on the breeze

D               G          A        D
From out of the oceans the dolphins began

D         G              A           D
Humming a tune that soon covered the land

D                 G           A         D
So young Princess Lea brought coral and pearls

D            G              A          D
Gifts to the travelers from some other world

D               G          A       D
The bush doctor mixed up a magical spell

D             G        A        D
Swore them to secrecy, never to tell


D            G         A           D
So young Mr. Moon flew away in the night

D                    G            A            D
With his best friend Magnus still right by his side

D           G              A          D
The sun was rising, they'd be home by noon

D           G             A       D
Humming the words to this magical tune
