I - The bassline
[Note: a comma following a note means it is played an octave lower than
the rest; an apostrophe means it is played an octave higher. These have
nothing to do with the rhythm. Transcribing the rhythm in ASCII is beyond
me, but it's not hard to figure out.]
Intro, verse and interlude:
G, G D G
B, B D B
B, F# C# E
B, B D F#
With grace notes (the second time through the intro):
(B,) G, G D G
(G) B, B D B
(B) B, F# C# E
B, B D F#
Chorus
|: B, B D B :| (x6)
B, B G F#
B, B F#
Coda:
B, B G F#
B, B F#
II - The guitar part, or a reasonable rendition
[One chord to a bar; a dash means hold it for another bar; two chords
with a slash between means two beats each.
The chords are fretted in the chorus actually aren't played on the guitar,
as far as I can tell (the lead plays a B throughout).]

SOL SIm xxx 12 12 10 xxx 16 15 14they thought we were part of a caravan
but we had other plans
You can't catch me where I'm gonna fall
you can't catch me where I'll hide

SOL / FA# SImI'm moving to the sun
(Interlude; spaced out organ bits and bassline comes in again)
Ninety-three miles and a million more
quite a trip we've planned
I must drive now, carefully
and figure where we'll land
You can't catch me where I'm gonna fall
you can't catch me where I'll hide
this earth's too cold so I'm gonna run
I'm moving to the sun
