(Synth intro and verse)
When I think of Lorelai
My head turns all around
She's gentle as a butterfly
She moves without a sound
{Note: you can probably fake the synth line by playing 2-0-2-3 on the high
E. I don't have a guitar in front of me at the moment, but that sounds right.
Just a variation on the D, D7, Dsus4 progression that appears throughout
the song.}

I call her on the tele phone

Verse
------------------
D D7 D Dsus4
Her eyes be-come a paradise
she softly speaks my name
She brightens every lonely night
No one's quite the same
She calls me on the telephone
She says be there by 8
Tonight's the night she's movin in
It's time to celebrate
The way she moves
Ooh ooh ooh-ooh
I gotta say
Lorelai let's live together
Brighter than the stars forever
Lorelai let's live together
Brighter than the stars forever
Oh baby forever

(guitar solo--find a sharper mind than mine if you want the tabs for that part)
