[Intro]
D G D
[Verse 1]
D
Well the night goes on forever when you try to make it last
D D7
We were passing time together, just laying in the grass
G
And we looked up at the heaven and we saw the worlds collide
D
We were lying still and watching, they were flying through the sky
[Chorus]
G D
The stars in Oklahoma
G A
Never seen a night so cool and clear
G D
Shootin' stars in Oklahoma
A D
Burn so bright then they disappear
[Verse 2]
G D
Well the moonlight has a way of throwing shadows on the night
D D7
It would be a shame to waste it on a place we had to hide
G
With the morning glowing bright and shining light upon our faces
D
We faded with the dawning then we went our separate ways
[Chorus]
G D
'Neath the stars in Oklahoma
G A
Never seen a night so cool and clear
G D
Shootin' stars in Oklahoma
A Bm
They shine so bright, then they disappear
[Bridge]
G
Ah the stars in Oklahoma and the banks in late September
D
And I lead you through the darkness on a night you won't remember
G
Is everyone that easy, do they all just play the fool
A G
Are they all just out here lookin' for a way to break the rules
[Instrumental]
D G A G D A D
G D
Well it would take a fool to say it, like a photograph o' grace
D D7
Fools need supervision or a gift for saving face
G
Yeah, we got it on a handshake, bought it for a song
D
Yeah, chase a simple feeling for doing something wrong
[Chorus]
G D
'Neath the stars in Oklahoma
G A
Never seen a night so cool and clear
G D
Shootin' stars in Oklahoma
A Bm
Shine so bright, then they disappear
A D
Shine so bright, then they disappear
