Dark and silent, late last night I think I
G          G/F#      Em      A7     A#dim
might have heard the highway calling

--- geese in flight and dogs that bite.
G                       D/F#         Esus4 E

With a holy host of others standing round me
F#m7             Em7              G     A7
Still I'm on the dark side of the moon.

And it seems like it goes on like this forever.
