Starlight

C   Am   Em   F

[Verse]
C                      Am
The serenade from the barking dogs
Em                                 F
They got news to tell that they’re trying to get across
C                   Am
A little rain in the afternoon
     Em                         F               G
Everything’s in place but the screws have gone undone
         Am         C               G
In the ground that hold the houses down
                       Am                C             G
Pulling up through the London sky like a Zeppelin over town

[Verse]
C                   Am
Send me up to the stars and planets
      Em                F
As I beam the messages back to the radio
C                   Am
In the darkness it holds on to me
       Em                  F
like a baby bear clinging onto its mama
       G           Am                  C      G
And I search for reflections, but I’m already gone
                   Am                    C             G
I just wanted to control something, so I turned the TV on

[Chorus]
D                G                        Em            A
Starlight coming down from a place we can never get to
D                   G                         Em                  A
Streets of another town such a long way from where we’re standing now
         D                G                 Em                        A
So let’s dance to the last beat, twist away twist away while we still can
D                G                        Em                   A
Starlight coming down come and take us to where we’re dreaming of

[Verse]
C                        Am
Coming down through the clouds again
        Em                       F
And the world just went kind of inside out
C                   Am
They reach out to feel something real
         Em           F
Like an octopus with every arm around
      G        Am            C               G
Some girl in a bar and it’s hard to hold it down
              Am               C                G
Sail into the altitude we are long way from the ground

[Chorus]
D                G                        Em            A
Starlight coming down from a place we can never get to
D                   G                         Em                  A
Streets of another town such a long way from where we’re standing now
         D                G                 Em                        A
So let’s dance to the last beat, twist away twist away while we still can
D                G                        Em                   A
Starlight coming down come and take us to where we’re dreaming of

[Outro]
         D                G                Em                         A
So let’s dance to the last beat, twist away twist away while we still can
D                G                        Em                   A
Starlight coming down come and take us to where we’re dreaming of
D    G    Em    A
D    G    Em    A   D
