Em C
There once was a boy and his favourite toy

was a radio down in a basement

It crackled and hummed and the music would come
D G B
He sat there for hours in amazement
C
Tubes they were glowing,
A
There was no way of knowing
G C G D
How the voices would rise through the air
Em
With his hand on the dial
C
He shot up a smile
Em
To the stars

To the stars

His story was long, but this is just one little song
D G B
Some liberties have to be taken

He got lost he got found

There was love all around
D G B
His heart was never left faking

Learned a few lessons, Wherever was guessing
G C G D
Wherever you go, there you are
Em
Then one day, he was dust

Just as all of us must go
Em
To the stars

To the stars
Em
To the stars
