Moving To The Sun by They Might Be Giants


I - The bassline

[Note: a comma following a note means it is played an octave lower than
the rest; an apostrophe means it is played an octave higher.  These have
nothing to do with the rhythm.  Transcribing the rhythm in ASCII is beyond
me, but it's not hard to figure out.]

Intro, verse and interlude:
G, G D G
B, B D B
B, F# C# E
B, B D F#

With grace notes (the second time through the intro):
(B,) G, G D G
(G) B, B D B
(B) B, F# C# E
B, B D F#

Chorus:
|: B, B D B :|  (x6)
B, B G F#
B, B F#

Coda:
B, B G F#
B, B F#




II - The guitar part, or a reasonable rendition

[One chord to a bar; a dash means hold it for another bar; two chords
with a slash between means two beats each.
The chords are fretted in the chorus actually aren't played on the guitar,
as far as I can tell (the lead plays a B throughout).]


1.
  G                             Bm      [xxx 12 12 10   xxx 16 15 14]
While they were staring at the Citgo sign

    F#                  Bm              [xxx 6 7 6      xxx 7 7 7]
is where they lost our trail

  G                             Bm      [xxx 12 12 10   xxx 16 15 14]
they thought we were part of a caravan

    F#             G                    [xxx 6 7 6      xxx 7 8 7]
but we had other plans


Chorus:
    Bm               -
You can't catch me where I'm gonna fall

     -                         -
you can't catch me where I'll hide

      -                       -
this earth's too cold - this Nova rolls

     G  /  F#     Bm
I'm moving to the sun


(Interlude; spaced out organ bits and bassline comes in again)


2.
Ninety-three miles and a million more
quite a trip we've planned
I must drive now, carefully
and figure where we'll land

Chorus:
You can't catch me where I'm gonna fall
you can't catch me where I'll hide
this earth's too cold so I'm gonna run
I'm moving to the sun


-E.M.
