Intro:

E | C#m | E | C#m | E | C#m | E | C#m | E | C#m



Verse 1:
A      F#m         D
 The world and the surrounding stars
        E              A
Might change completely in the space of an hour
             F#m         D
But not an eclipse of the sky nor a colliding car
       E               A
Will turn me back now that I've come this far
       F#m          D
Not a shotgun blast nor a shooting star
        E           A
Will bring her down from her stubborn tower

F#m | D | E

Verse 2:
A         F#m           D
 It's a kind of madness, it's a kind of sin
        E               A
To live in the state of mind I've been living in
      F#m      D
Her face imprinted on my sight
      E            A
Her voice resounding in my skull at night
     F#m          D
If there is a living goddess on Earth
            E      A
It must be her from the heaven highlife
           F#m         D
It takes this girl to realize what you're worth
             E           A
And I'm worth nothing it she's worth more than my life

Interlude:
C#m | E | C#m | E | C#m | E | C#m | A  (D | E)

Verse 3:
A           F#m       D
 But there's more to me than simple devotion
             E        A
I won't just crawl at her feet and utter a plea
       F#m              D
And if she refused I wouldn't walk into the ocean
        E             A
Just because my world was left all out at sea
         F#m           D
So it was in this cafe when we eventually met
           E           A
And I wished I had sunglasses or smoked cigarettes
     F#m         D
The world and the surrounding stars
        E              A
They change completely in the space of an hour
       F#m          D
When over the table and two cups of tea
             E       A
She told me she felt the same way about me
             F#m         D
And not an eclipse of the sky nor a colliding car
            E             A
Could have shaken our attention from each other's face
        F#m          D
As we both jump down from our stubborn towers
         E          A
We jump into the ignorant heaven that is the lovers place
