C#m B G#m A
[Verse 1]
B C#m
She's taking her time making up the reasons
G#m A
To justify all the hurt inside
C#m
Guess she knows from the smile
B
and the look in their eyes
G#m A
Everyone's got a theory about the bitter one
C#m
They're saying, "Mamma never loved her much"
B
And, "Daddy never keeps in touch
G#m A
That's why she shies away from human affection"
C#m
But somewhere in a private place
B
She packs her bags for outer space
G#m A
And now she's waiting for the right kind of pilot to come
And she'll say to him
C#m
She's saying
[Chorus]
A B
I would fly to the moon & back if you'll be...
G#m C#m
If you'll be my baby
A B
I've got a ticket for a world where we belong
G#m C#m G#m
So would you be my baby?
[Verse 2]
A B C#m B
She can't remember a time when she felt needed
G#m A
If love was red then she was colour blind
C#m B
All her friends they've been tried for treason
G#m A
And crimes that were never defined
C#m B
She's saying, "Love is like a barren place,
And reaching out for human faith is
G#m A
Is like a journey I just don't have a map for"
C#m
So baby's gonna take a dive and
B
Push the shift to overdrive
G#m A
Send a signal that she's hanging
All her hopes on the stars
What a pleasant dream
C#m
Just saying
[Chorus]
A B
I would fly to the moon & back if you'll be...
G#m C#m
If you'll be my baby
A B
I've got a ticket for a world where we belong
G#m C#m
So would you be my baby?
B G#m A B
Hold on, hold on

[Verse 3]
C#m
Mamma never loved her much
B
And Daddy never keeps in touch
G#m A
That's why she shies away from human affection
C#m
But somewhere in a private place
B
She packs her bags for outer space
G#m A
And now she's waiting for the right kind of pilot to come
And she'll say to him

So would you be my baby?

I would fly to the moon & back if you'll be...
G#m C#m
If you'll be my baby

I've got a ticket for a world where we belong
