[Verse 1]
Em           G                Bm          A
   Topanga's hot tonight, the city by the bay
Em           G                Bm                A
   Has movie stars and liquor stores and soft decay
Em             G             Bm                 A
   The rumbling from distant shores sends me to sleep
Em               G                  Bm              A
But the facts of life can sometimes make it hard to dream


[Pre-Chorus 1]
     C              G
Life rocked me like Mötley
        A                    G
Grab me by the ribbons in my hair
     C               G
Life rocked me ultra-softly
         A                     
Like the heavy metal that you wear


[Chorus 1]
Em                   G
   I'm flying to the moon again
Bm                A
   Dreaming about heroin
Em                G
   How I gave you everything
    Bm              A
And took your life away

Em                 G
   I put you on an aeroplane
Bm                A
   Destined for a foreign land
Em                         G
   My hope's that you come back again
    Bm           A
And tell me everything's

  Em        G   Bm       A
O-kay ay-ay-ay, ay ay-ay-ay
Em        G    Bm         A  
Bay ay-ay-abe, yeah-ay-ay-ay


[Verse 2]
Em           G          Bm              A
   Topanga's hot today, Manson's in the air
Em            G                        Bm                  A
   And all my friends have come 'cause they still feel him here
Em           G                    Bm           A
   I want to leave, I'll probably stay another year
Em              G              Bm               A
   It's hard to leave when absolutely nothing's clear
 

[Pre-Chorus 2]
     C              G
Life rocked me like Mötley
      A                 G
Bad beginning to my new year
     C               G
Life rocked me ultra-softly
         A                     
Like the heavy metal that you hear


[Chorus 2]
Em                   G
   I'm flying to the moon again
Bm                A
   Dreaming about heroin
Em                    G
   And how I gave you everything
    Bm              A
And took your life away

Em                  G
   I put you on the aeroplane
Bm                A
   Destined for a foreign land
Em                           G
   I thought that you'd come back again
   Bm           A
To tell me everything's

O-kay ay-ay-ay, ay ay-ay-ay
Em        G    Bm         A  
Bay ay-ay-abe, yeah-ay-ay-ay
