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
Chorus

Queen of the island she
welcomed them in
D G A D
Asked 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
Chorus
D G A D
So young Princess Lia
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
