(Intro)
Dm C Bb Am Gm
Dm C Bb Am Gm
(Verse)
Dm
The stars are shining bright through his window
C
So much for good rest, he's not sleeping
Bb Am
So he steps outside for some fresh air
Gm
To breathe again?
Dm
Staring out into infinite space,
C
This earth and it's billions of people
Bb Am
Can't help feel we're all on our own here?
Gm
Is someone there?
(Chorus)
F
Across the stars and moons afar,
Bb
something speaks to me deep inside
Dm
Says I'm not the only one
C
Wishing upon the moon tonight
F
I could stay away from this
Bb
I'd start again with peace in mind
Dm C
If I could I leave this all bee-hind
(POST-Chorus)
Dm C Bb Gm
Dm
and all of this
C Bb
weighs heavy on my mind
Gm
Hear my plea tonight!
(INTERLUDE)
Dm C Bb Am Gm
(Verse)
Dm
So he crawls back into his warm bed
C
there he dreams a prophetic vision
Bb Am
A starship and it's sailors flying towards
Gm
The Northern Cross
(Chorus)
F
Across the stars and moons afar,
Bb
something speaks to me deep inside
Dm
Says I'm not the only one
C
Wishing upon the moon tonight
F
I could stay away from this
Bb
I'd start again with peace in mind
Dm C
If I could I leave this all bee-hind
Bb
