One More Astronaut in black skin of universe,
One more travelin' man, with heavy tired eyes, feelin' cold

Feelin' cold
Thinkin' around the clock of drinkin' on the job of the, powdered and piss bags,
never havin' sex growin' old. (Riff 2) growin' old.
Chorus:
E G
Headspace, alive and painless, weightless and almost sane I,
D A
close my eyes, I become the sky
E G
Headspace, alone and shameless, can't wait to find the faces,
D E
I left behind in a, troubled time back home.
Verse 2:
It gets so lonely you know, weeks and months alone, chasing sleep and space junk,
and the dying stars I've known and loved (Riff 2) known and loved
Through true decline of the, 5 million minds or so, through mud slides and
earthquakes,
the blue one hold and rolls along (Riff 2) rolls along.

Verse 4:
Bold are the ones who, come over the to fall, over the horizon,
never ones to fade away,
And then it hit me, this cosmic pull and energy, it kinda makes me wonder if,
I'll ever make it back home.
For the intro, make some cool 'space-like' sounds with alot of muting
and stuff. Do some muted arpeggios:

University of New BrunswickTab: "One More Astronaut" by I Mother Earth
Album: Scenery and Fish
This song is quite easy to play, and since the tab posted was wrong, I
thought I'd post this one. I'm pretty sure of how this is played, since I've seen
them live twice.

After the intro he hits an E chord and then most of it is random noise until
this:

That's about it,I think. This is a fun improvising song anyways, so feel
free to alter this, it'll probably even sound better that way.
