Am7add4   Am9**      Am7
Love just drifts us on

      D9/A         Fmaj7
On our way, to the fields where we will play today

Am7add4  Am9**        Am7
Louis    brings his kite

        D9/A     Fmaj7
With a homemade paper-chain

Amadd4     Am9**   Am7
Strange to see the sight

       D9/A         Fmaj7
Of the moon, in the daytime, not the night

Am7add4  Am9**    Am7
I will   lift you up

   D9/A        Fmaj7
So high, on my shoulders to the sky

Asus4
Ahhh...
[Chorus]
      Fmaj7         G      Am    Am7/G  D9/F#
Don't stare at the sun too long

      Fmaj7         G
Don't stare at the sun too long  [play intro x1]
[Verse 2]
Am7add4  Am9**   Am7
Singing  in the dark

           D9/A      Fmaj7
On our way home, the day is done for sleepy ones

Am7add4  Am9**    Am7
On the   fire escape

       D9/A        Fmaj7
My telescope, that scans the evening sky

   Am7add4  Am9**  Am7
If I could  see it all

          D9/A         Fmaj7
Oh to be lost, in the galaxy of distant stars

Am7add4  Am9**      Am7
Did I      see your face?

             D9/A     Fmaj7
It weighs so much, to be alone tonight

Asus4
Ahhh...
[Chorus]
      Fmaj7         G      Am    Am7/G  D9/F#
Don't stare at the sun too long

      Fmaj7         G      Am    Am7/G  D9/F#
Don't stare at the sun too long

    Fmaj7      G
You scare everyone

        Fmaj7        G
If you stare at the sun

      Fmaj7         G      Am
Don't stare at the sun too long
