Intro:

E MajorE | C# minorC#m | E MajorE | C# minorC#m | E MajorE | C# minorC#m | E MajorE | C# minorC#m | E MajorE | C# minorC#m


Verse 1:
A augmentedA      F# minorF#m         D MajorD
 The world and the surrounding stars
        E MajorE              A augmentedA
Might change completely in the space of an hour
             F# minorF#m         D MajorD
But not an eclipse of the sky nor a colliding car
       E MajorE               A augmentedA
Will turn me back now that I've come this far
       F# minorF#m          D MajorD
Not a shotgun blast nor a shooting star
        E MajorE           A augmentedA
Will bring her down from her stubborn tower

F# minorF#m | D MajorD | E MajorE

Verse 2:
A augmentedA         F# minorF#m           D MajorD
 It's a kind of madness, it's a kind of sin
        E MajorE               A augmentedA
To live in the state of mind I've been living in
      F# minorF#m      D MajorD
Her face imprinted on my sight
      E MajorE            A augmentedA
Her voice resounding in my skull at night
     F# minorF#m          D MajorD
If there is a living goddess on Earth
            E MajorE      A augmentedA
It must be her from the heaven highlife
           F# minorF#m         D MajorD
It takes this girl to realize what you're worth
             E MajorE           A augmentedA
And I'm worth nothing it she's worth more than my life

Interlude:
C# minorC#m | E MajorE | C# minorC#m | E MajorE | C# minorC#m | E MajorE | C# minorC#m | A augmentedA  (D MajorD | E MajorE)

Verse 3:
A augmentedA           F# minorF#m       D MajorD
 But there's more to me than simple devotion
             E MajorE        A augmentedA
I won't just crawl at her feet and utter a plea
       F# minorF#m              D MajorD
And if she refused I wouldn't walk into the ocean
        E MajorE             A augmentedA
Just because my world was left all out at sea
         F# minorF#m           D MajorD
So it was in this cafe when we eventually met
           E MajorE           A augmentedA
And I wished I had sunglasses or smoked cigarettes
     F# minorF#m         D MajorD
The world and the surrounding stars
        E MajorE              A augmentedA
They change completely in the space of an hour
       F# minorF#m          D MajorD
When over the table and two cups of tea
             E MajorE       A augmentedA
She told me she felt the same way about me
             F# minorF#m         D MajorD
And not an eclipse of the sky nor a colliding car
            E MajorE             A augmentedA
Could have shaken our attention from each other's face
        F# minorF#m          D MajorD
As we both jump down from our stubborn towers
         E MajorE          A augmentedA
We jump into the ignorant heaven that is the lovers place
