And something to explore up there

I think we oughta

Up in the sky to wander, sometimes

Chords (alternate version)

From Angus: UP IN THE SKY SOMETIME
The verse on this song is listed as E > G#m > F# > B, whereas it should actually be E > C#m > A > B. Strangely, you've also put the Chorus as being E > G#m > F# > B on your
Site, the same as the verse, but you can tell easily the chord progression changes up, and it should actually be A > E > F# > B.

I walked last night
Should say I wandered
I saw the galaxies, and so I pondered
How I would love to roam there, up there
Up in the sky sometime

I saw Saturn, I saw the other planets
Running their pattern, It looked warm there
I felt at home there, and I want to roam there
Up in the sky sometime

I see a little planet
Well do you think that one is Jupiter?
Well frankly asked, I walked last night
I spied a little sattellight

And oh my baby, let's roam there
Ooh my darling, we'll find a home there
Ooh my baby, let's go
up in the sky sometime

Baby, we could go there
we're overdo to roam there
I feel at home when I'm under the stars
And I want to roam up there, sometimes

Well, now I see a little planet
Do you think that one is Saturn?
Well if it were lonely up there
We could watch them planets running their pattern

And oh my baby let's roam there
And ooh my darling, we're overdo to go
I like it down here, But I want to go
Up in the sky sometime

Well now, oh my darling, don't you want to go
Oh my darling, don't you want to go too?
Oh, now, don't you want to go?
Up in the sky and wander

Baby don't you want to wander like I wanna
Don't you want to go up there, explore
I wanna go up there, to roam sometimes

Lyrics

I walked last night
Should say I wandered
And I saw the galaxies, and so I pondered
How I'd love to roam there, with my darling
Up in the sky sometime

I saw Saturn, and the other planets
Running their pattern, ??? warm there
I felt at home there, let's roam there
Up in the sky sometime

Look darling, there's a little planet
Well do you think that one could be Jupiter?
And frankly asked, I walked last night
I spied a little sattellight

And oh my darling, let's roam there
Ooh my darling, let's find a home there
Ooh my darling, let's go
Up in the sky sometime

Oh my darling

Up in the sky sometime

There's a little planet
Do you think that one could be Jupiter?
And if we're lonely
In the void
We'll find a pleasant little asteroid

And oh my darling, let's roam there
Ooh my darling, let's build a home there
Ooh my darling, don't you want to go
Up in the sky sometime

Let's go

Oh my darling, let's go

We always should have wandered there
We're overdue]

Well now do you think that one is Jupiter?
And if we're lonely here in the void
We'll find a pleasant little asteroid

Lyrics

[Oh we'll try this one on you then,
Who wants to hear old material like that?
You know what? We haven't been doing that in 10 years, there's not a prayer, you're in the wrong place,
Not even, not a chance, not a chance,
Here's a song called, here's a song called "Up in the Sky sometimes", right,
It's a story of how I was living up in Maine, and I looked up a lot more than I used to,
??? Ask, I wanted to walk around there with ???,
And find a home up in the sky,
Have a little more stage ???, am I deaf?
No sir, I'm not deaf I can hear very well thank you,
What would you like to say? what would you like to say?
I'm not deaf, oh I remember we did a song about them years ago,
You want to hear it tonight but ???]

I walked last night
Should say I wandered

Running their pattern, It looked warm there
I felt at home there, baby let's roam there
Up in the sky sometime

Well now I see a little planet
Do you think that one could be Jupiter?
And frankly asked, I walked along last night
I spied a little sattellight

And oh my darling, let's roam there
And Ooh my baby, we'll find a home there
And Ooh my baby, don't you want to go
Up in the sky sometime

All right lovers
