Exploding the Past Composer: Henning Ohlenbusch Album: Gentle Hen - Sneaking up on the Moon https://youtu.be/qSaoZjZ9DkI [verse] E A B E Pile into the car in the middle of the night. E A B E Everyone’s coming along so smash in tight. E A B E We might be the only ones awake in this whole town. E A B E The hottest night of the year with the windows rolled down. [verse] E A B E Running through the forest lit by the moon E A B E Don’t know where we’re going I don’t care if we get there soon E A B E Following the voices of friends with a towel in my hand E A B E For the first time in my life I think I understand [chorus] E And it happened so fast F#m We don’t need permission A We don’t want to stop E And think things through E Exploding the past F#m Yeah, we’re on a mission A Forgetting the future E To make this one moment true [verse] E A B E A shimmering sliver of silver fades into sight. E A B E It’s the moon shining down on water on a perfect night E A B E It’s brighter down here by the lake than it was in the trees E A B E And for the first time in my life I don’t care who sees. [chorus] E And it happened so fast F#m We don’t need permission A We don’t want to stop E And think things through E Exploding the past F#m Yeah, we’re on a mission A Forgetting the future E To make this one moment true [bridge] C#m Back up, back up. B Get a running start. A Back up, back up. B This is the easy part.
