"Hello Earth"
By Kate Bush
From her classic album "Hounds of Love" (1985)
Please rate! I worked really hard on this! It's my favorite song of all time.
C#m Abm/B
Hello, earth.
F#m/A B
Hello, earth.
C#m F#m/A B
With just one hand held up high
C#m Abm/B
I can blot you out,
C#m Abm/B
Out of sight.
F#m/A
Peek-A-boo,
B
Peek-a-boo, little earth.
C#m F#m/A B
With just my heart and my mind
C#m
I can be driving,
Driving home,
F#m/A
And you asleep
B
On the seat.
A
I get out of my car,
B
Step into the night
C#m
And look up at the sky.
A
And there's something bright,
B
Traveling fast.
C#m
Look at it go!
Abm/B
Look at it go!
(Men's Choral Part)

Fm Eb Ab/Eb C#/Eb Ab/Eb Eb F
C#m Abm/B
Hello earth,
F#m/A B
Hello earth.
C#m
Watching storms
F#/A C#m
Start to form
Over america.
F#m/A
Can't do anything.
B
Just watch them swing
With the wind
C#m
Out to sea.
A/C# B
All you sailors,
C#m
("get out of the waves! get out of the water!")
A/C# B
All life-savers,
C#m
("get out of the waves! get out of the water!")
A/C# B
All you cruisers,
C#m
("get out of the waves! get out of the water!")
A
All you fishermen,
B A
Head for home.
B C#m
Go to sleep, little earth.
A
I was there at the birth,
B
Out of the cloudburst,
C#m
The head of the tempest.
A
Murderer!
B
Murder of calm.
C#m
Why did I go?
Abm/B
Why did I go?

(Spoken in a whisper)
Go to sleep little earth.
