Lyrics
[4/4, fast bluegrass]
I MAY WRITE YOU FROM JUPITER (2005)
–J. Wrabek
[THE RAP: I wrote this for a friend of mind who was having a girlfriend problem, and wanted to let her down easy–and explaining that he was married didn't seem to be working. I did have an answer.]
1.
C F
Well, the notice in the paper said sell off all your possessions
C G
And join us in the mountains in a very special place,
C F
So I sold the truck and trailer, and left a note on the ‘frigerator
C G C
Saying ‘bye to the children ‘cause I'm headed off to space.
CHORUS
G F C
And I may write you from Jupiter if they've got pen and paper;
G
You're never gonna see my face again;
C F
I took this invitation to do a little exploration
C G C
And get light years away from you the only way I can.
2.
I'll be waitin' on the hilltop when that rocket makes a pit stop
To beam me up to Paradise in the interstellar blue;
The aliens've been buggin' me ‘bout leavin' this insanity
And most of what I'm gonna need to leave behind is you.
CHORUS
And I may write you from Jupiter if they've got pen and paper;
You're never gonna see my face again;
I took this invitation to do a little exploration
And get light years away from you the only way I can.
INSTRUMENTAL BREAK (IF ANYONE CAN PLAY LEAD)
3.
When the roll is called up yonder, find that spaceship, I'll be on her,
Wavin' from the window with a big ol' welcome sign;
I'll be passin' through the parsecs, livin' episodes of Star Trek,
Tellin' tales about ol' Mother Earth and the girl I left behind..
CHORUS
And I may write you from Jupiter if they've got pen and paper;
You're never gonna see my face again;
I took this invitation to do a little exploration
And get light years away from you the only way I can.
REPEAT LAST LINE OF CHORUS & END
