This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

INTRO

VERSE

The one who reads the stars has told me

Why you're not like everyone

Your father is a fiery wizard

He travels all around the sun

No one ever knew just where you came from

Orphan girl, you grew up wild

Your father left you on the way home

Yes, girl, you're a Jupiter's child

VERSE

Wish I knew the way back

Back to where you came

Gladly I would leave here

Take another name

I can tell by you, it must be true

It's up on Jupiter's face

They don't embrace our own disgrace

Somebody, help me off this place

SOLO 1

VERSE

You really quite belonged

Like a pearl among the swine

You tried to live the way we do

Hoping you would learn in time

But, mankind, with all it's virtue

Will soon make you lose your smile

On this earth, with all it's madness

Heaven help a Jupiter's child

SOLO 2

VERSE

Wish I knew the way back

Back to where you came

Gladly I would leave here

Take another name

I can tell by you, it must be true

It's up on Jupiter's face

They don't embrace our own disgrace

Somebody, get me off this place

OUTRO

Normal tuning. Give me good scores! Jesse M
