C                               G
You're the one you're my shinin star
C                                G
You're the one I've been waiting for
D          C   D               C
Let's fly away to some foreign country
G            D             G
Where nobody knows who we are
C                               G
I wish I had a ship to sail the waters
C                            G
I wish I had about a hundred dollars
D             C               D           C
But I'll just stand with this glass in my hand
G            D            G
Feeling like nothing even matters
Em                              C           G
Your words run thru me like the blood in my veins
Em                        C                       D
I could swear I knew your love before I knew your name

Before I knew your name

SOLO

C                            G
Everyday I miss your smiling face
C                              G
No one here can ever take your place
D           C          D       C
The sun can shine down over my town
G            D             G
But it never shines in my days
C                    G
I told all the stars above
C                            G
I'm gonna shower you with my love
D         C        D                 C
I won't demand you I'll try to understand you
G          D         G         
My love is free as a dove
Em                              C           G
Your words run thru me like the blood in my veins
Em                        C                       D
I could swear I knew your love before I knew your name

Before I knew your name
C                               G
You're the one you're my shinin star
C                                G
You're the one I've been waiting for
D          C   D              G
Let's fly away to some foreign country
G            D             G
Where nobody knows who we are
