1. She was lookin' like a friend of mine, the first time I saw her face,

       Am

    I was approaching at the end of the line,

            F                                               Am

    the first time I ever saw her smile at me that way.

 

            F                  Am           Dm                     F

I was sailing in the Milky Way, losing track of memories

          G                                          A

that weren't that day, right by her side.

               F                  Am                   Dm

As the stars flew by I did collide with memory,

        F                    G                             A

but somehow I survived and became free.       +  Am - F (7x)

    walking like she knew she was walking right up to me.   +  CHORUS

 

    Dm                                  G                     - C                                  F

+       The starry night with no moonshine,        the day without a cloud,

Dm                             G                        - C                                 A

     a long ladder, but no one climbing,        a stranger in the crowd.

                      Am                                                F

3. There's a mermaid in the Milky Way with an ocean liner,

    there's no moon tonight, so you might see her

    and her ocean liner up in the stars.   +  CHORUS    +  Am - F (10x) ...
