We Let The Stars Go

Intro:  Gmaj7   Bm7    Am7   (Am7/G)

Cmaj7          Bm7Am7

There was a girl     I used to know -  She'd tease me about my name

Gmaj7       Bm             Am7/G

Fan the embers long enough, I sometimes catch her flame

Cmaj7           Bm7                 Am7

The soothing voice of distance tells me, "That was just a fling"

Gmaj7    Bm          Am7/G

Other music fills my ears, but I still hear her sing. . . .  She sings :

Chorus:

Gmaj7       Bm7        Am7    Am7/G

Paddy Joe, say Paddy Joe, don't you remember me ?

Cmaj7 Bm    Am    Am7  C      Cmaj7

How long ago one gorgeous night we let      the     stars go

Gmaj7          Bm7        Am7    Am7/G

Paddy Joe, say Paddy Joe, don't you remember me ?

Cmaj7 Bm   Am    Am7   C      Cmaj7     Gmaj7    Bm7   Am7

How long ago one gorgeous night we let   the   stars  go        free

(same as above)

There was a boy I used to be - I guess that he was cold

If she came to buy him now, how cheaply he'd be sold

But the light is gone and it is dark: what used to be the sky

Is suddenly embarrassing to the naked eye. . . . You see :

Chorus:

Gmaj7       Bm7       Am7    Am7/G

Paddy Joe, see Paddy Joe can't face this memory

Cmaj7 Bm    Am    Am7  C     Cmaj7   

How long ago one gorgeous night we let      the     stars go         

Gmaj7          Bm7        Am7    Am7/G

Paddy Joe, see Paddy Joe can't face this memory

Cmaj7 Bm    Am    Am7  C     Cmaj7     Gmaj7    Bm7   Am7

How long ago one gorgeous night we let    the  stars go        free
