It
takes a long, long time for the light from the stars
C
to
go a long, long way and get where we are
F
but
most of us don't think or care
C
about
what goes on way out there
F
we
sit outside on patios
C
with
tiki lamps and summer clothes
F
the
constellations will slowly die
C
but
for all we know, they're still all-
Cma7
right—we
Em7
sip
our
Dm7
drinks
Dm7
and
we watch
D7sus4
Orion
G(2)
shine—when
we
Cma7
do,
Em7
we're
look
Dm7
ing
Dm7
way,
way back
D7sus4
into
G(2)
time

Chorus
C
Every
fear that you
F
know,
every
C
care
that you
F
hold
C
they
will fade in a
F
chord
when you
Dm
finally
G7
fall
over
C
board

If
peace could swim, it'd be a manatee
C
that
God produced—so pure and free
F
but
with this thing we don't agree
C
and
so they die quite easily
F
and
commonly and frequently
C
they
never see the motorboat
F
a-comin'!
It's coming from
C
above.

If
I know

any

thing,
it's that
Dm7
life
is
D7sus4
a
rip-
G(2)
tide
that will
Cma7
pull
Em7
you
can
Dm7
me
out where
Dm7
we
D7sus4
cannot
G(2)
hide
