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
D
Before I knew your name

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
D
Before I knew your name
C G
You're the one you're my shinin star

You're the one I've been waiting for

Let's fly away to some foreign country
