STARFISH
By: Sister Hazel Album: Somewhere More Familiar Lyrics by: J. Beres and K. Block Music by: J. Beres and Sister Hazel
Capo 1 fret Intro: EF#mABE (pause) E I saw a starfish on the ground F#m He was half buried in the sand AB Just so out of place and ahh (pause) E He was a long, long way from home
I was a long, long way from home And so we talked a little while Then I shook his hands....and I I was a long, long way from home
(Pause) A And everything is wonderful E When everything's alright so alright F#mA There we were (pause) E One less star tonight
EF#m Na na na na na na na ABE Na na na na na na (Repeat)
We thought a better place to go Might be the top of purple mountains So close to outer space....and ahh We were a long, long way from home
We'd bring some records and a game Might take a walk or read a book But it's not the same....no ahh We're still a long long way from home (Chorus)
(pause) E I saw a starfish on the ground F#m Oh, he was still buried in the sand A Now he's not so all alone B And he's finally going home E So I smiled and I shook his hands....and we were singin'
Na na na na na na na Na na na na na na (Repeat)
F#mAE There we were one less star tonight F#mA There we were one more star tonight
