Me and my girl went down to the fields to see what we could see

C                                 F
One thousand degrees it was in my mi-hi-hi-hi-ind…

                 C           F
It was sunny and bright (and bright)

                                       F
We couldn't find any shade for several miles around us

C                      F                                C        F
I would have given anything for that day to turn into a night (a night)

As we laid in the fields I looked up and said with all my might (my might)

C   Am            F         G           C       Am F
I'd kick down the sun for a star valley night

I received a telescope, I was so happy I went outside with it to play (to play)

Was casting all its rays across the sky masking all the stars (the stars)

C                     F                          C         F
As I sat with my telescope I shouted with all my might (my might)
