Fun song. Pick up your acoustic and give it a go.

Incidentally, this song is supposed to be about

Biosphere II.

C#m D A

I hung around

C#m D A

On the planet Mabel

Bm E

She tried to stand

C#m E

But she was not able

C#m D A

She tried to find the truth

C#m D A

She tried to colonize space

Bm E

She only had a few

C#m E

But it was a good race

D B A

Old Black Dawning is coming on

D B A

Old Black Dawning is coming on

D E

Old Black Dawning

C#m E

Old Black Dawning

I'm always happy to

Go down to old Tucson

After you had your fun

It's time to move on

I've got a favorite story

About the Tower of Babel

Some say it's true

And some say it's a fable

Old Black Dawning is coming on

Old Black Dawning is coming on

Old Black Dawning

Old Black Dawning
