Tom: C
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
