Am Fmaj7 C
I lit a fire with the love you left behind

I can't look out the window

I can't look at this place
C G
I can't look at the stars
Am Fmaj7
They make me wonder where you are
C G
Stars
Am Fmaj7
Up on heaven's boulevard

And if I know you at all
Am Fmaj7
I know you've gone too far

So I I can't look at the stars

And now I'm all alone in the dark of night

The moon is shining

But I can't see the light

I can't look at the stars
Am Fmaj7
They make me wonder where you are

Am Fmaj7
Up on heaven's boulevard

I know you've gone too far
