I been looking for pies in the skies,

        Cmaj7          C            G          D
I been staring at the sun without blinking my eyes,

        Cmaj7      C           G             D
I been feeling my temperature rise, I been thinking,

   Cmaj7         C
oh my, oh my, oh my...
[chorus]
        C                  Cmaj7         G                D      Dsus4 D
is the right time only the nighttime? Is my way only the highway?

Is a slow dance my one and only chance to find me a little bit of romance?

I been tryin, (so desperately) tryin'  to stop an unstoppable train.

 C  G              C   G   C             G       D  Dsus4 D

I was chewing, but now I'm choking, whatcha doing while I'm turning blue?
[prechorus]
         Cmaj7        C           G
Are you looking for stars in the day?

          Cmaj7          C           G       D
Are you starting at the sun as it's fading away?

         Cmaj7     C           G
Are you casting a lasting goodbye?

Is this passion merely a fashion? Are there really any questions left worth asking?

          C           Cmaj7                   G                       D
