       D               A              F#m      G
It's funny how you sound as if you're right next door

          D              Bm         Em A7
When you're really half a world away

      D               A              F#m      G
I just can't seem to find the words I'm looking for

      D              Bm         Em A7
To say the things that I need to say
[Verse 2]
      D               A              F#m      G
I can't remember when I felt so close to you

          D              Bm         Em A7
It's almost more than I can bear

      D               A              F#m      G
Though I seem a half a million miles from you

          D              Bm           Em A7
You are in my heart and living there
[Chorus 1]
      D             G                   D          Bm
And the moon and the stars are the same ones you see

        Em                A7        D    A7
It's the same old sun up in the sky

        D             G              D       Bm
And your voice in my ear is like heaven to me

        Em                A7          D
Like the breezes here in old Shanghai
Em - F#m - G - A7 [Verse 3]
      D               A              F#m         G
There are lovers who walk hand in hand in the park

          D         Bm      Em  A7
And lovers who walk all alone

      D               A              F#m         G
There are lovers who lie unafriad in the dark

          D         Bm    Em  A7
And lovers who long for home
[Verse 4]
 D                   A          F#m       G
I couldn't leave you even if I wanted to

          D              Bm        Em A7
You're in my dreams and always near

      D               A              F#m         G
And especially when I sing the songs I wrote for you

          D              Bm        Em A7
You are in my heart and living there
[Chorus 2]
      D             G                   D          Bm
And the moon and the stars are the same ones you see

        Em                A7        D    A7
It's the same old sun up in the sky

        D             G              D       Bm
And your voice in my ear is like heaven to me

        Em                A7          D
Like the breezes here in old Shanghai
[Interlude]
Em             F#m               Bm
Shanghai breezes cool and clearing

G            A7       D
Evening's sweet caress

Em             F#m               D
Shanghai breezes soft and gentle

  G          Em          A7
Reminds me of your tenderness
[Chorus 3]
     D             G                   D          Bm
And the moon and the stars are the same ones you see

        Em                A7        D    A7
It's the same old sun up in the sky

        D             G              D       Bm
And your voice in my ear is like heaven to me

        Em                A7          D
Like the breezes here in old Shanghai
[Outro-Chorus]
     D             G                   D          Bm
And the moon and the stars are the same ones you see

        Em                A7        D    A7
It's the same old sun up in the sky

        D             G              D       Bm
And your voice in my ear is like heaven to me

        Em                A7          D
Like the breezes here in old Shanghai
