Intro 1

Verse 1
D 
I was reading by my window
late one night
when a bright light lit up the sky.
I heard a crash and a clatter.
I said, what is the matter?
It can't be Santa Claus
cuz it's only July
and then that same bright
light lit up my room
and in walked a Strange -looking creature.
He held out his hand at least
I think it was a hand and he said
G 
And he said take me to your reader
D 
Cuz I'm in search of a leader
A 
Somebody's all that I  need,
who can teach me to read,
D 
and I would sure like to meet her. Or him.
G 
Oh, he said, take me to your reader.
D 
It could be Mary or Peter.
A 
And I don't care how he looks,
as long as she can read books.
D 
He said, take me to your reader.
Bm 
D 
Oh, yeah.
And then he sat down on my sofa
and made himself at home
and proceeded to explain.
He said, my planet's no fun,
we've done it all and we're done,
we need something new
G 
to educate and entertain.
D 
Deep in outer space,
we've got satellite TV,
but we don't have any books, not a one.
So we've been watching
Reading Rainbow
and Sesame Street with Elmo.
We want to learn to read,
cause it looks like fun.
G 
And he said, take me to your reader,
cause I'm in search of a
D 
leader.
A 
Somebody's all that I  need,
oh, who can teach me to read?
D 
And I would sure like to meet her, or him.
G 
Oh, he said, take me to your reader.
D 
It could be Mary or Peter.
A 
And I don't care how he looks,
as long as she can read books.
D 
Bm 
He said, take me to your reader.
D 
Oh, yeah.
Bm 
So I said, please, Mr. Spaceman,
A 
I think I can help.
E 
Bm 
Because I've got lots of books
A 
right here on my shelf.
G 
C 
And I'll read them to you all night long
G 
If you leave me here on Earth,
A 
where I  belong
G 
He said, take me to Eurita
Cause I'm in search of
D 
a leader
A 
Somebody's all that I  need
Who can teach me to read
D 
And I would sure like to meet her
G 
D 
Or him
G 
Oh, he said, take me to Eurita
D 
It could be Mary or Peter
A 
And I don't care how he looks
As long as she can read books
D 
G 
He said, take me to your reader
D 
Oh, yeah
