Sesame Street To Live On The Moon chords by Television Music

Chords with lyrics

I DON^ÒT WANT TO LIVE ON THE MOON
Sesame Street, performed by Ernie
Transcribed by Ron Stimmel

Disclaimer: I transcribed this all by ear after listening to the
song.  I don^Òt even think this is published anywhere so this is
definitely my own work.  And it^Òs pretty accurate, if I say so myself.

Standard tuning, no capo

Play  as intro one time in the same way as the first
half of each verse is played:  The first two chords of each line of
verse are 1 beat each, and 4 notes.  So beginning with the bass and
ascending, the first 4 notes of the Chord diagramC majorC and Fbar chords are played in
order while letting the strings ring.  After those first 2 beats (2
chords), you get to Chord diagramA minorAm and that you play (starting with bass Chord diagramA augmentedA) all
the way up and back down for a total of 4 beats and 8 notes.

In order to change chords faster and easier, I bar the Chord diagramFF bass with my
thumb.

For the lines that have only 2 chords, 2 beats go to each chord.

Play around with it and find the best fingerpicking style that works.
In the song there are about 4 instruments playing together, and I
think this pattern sort of combines all of them into the dominating
melody that also happens to sound a little like the vocals.

If you have even heard OF this song, you probably know how it goes so
catching on to the melody shouldn^Òt be hard.

I^Òm not allowed to include lyrics, but the recording is pretty clear.
