G# Cm She's taking her time A# Making up the reasons Gm G# To justify all the hurt inside Cm Guess she knows from the smiles A# And the look in their eyes Gm Everyone's got a theory G# About the bitter one
Pre-chorus: They're saying Cm Mama never loved her much A# And daddy never keeps in touch Gm That's why she shies away G# From human affection Cm But somewhere in private place A# She packs her bags for outer space Gm G# And now she's waiting for the right Kind of pilot to come And she'll say to him
Chorus: Cm G# I would fly to the moon and back A# Gm If you'll be, if you'll be my baby Cm G# A# Got a ticket for a world where we belong Gm So would you be my baby.
G# Cm She can't remember a time A# When she felt needed Gm G# If love was red then she was color bund Cm A# All her friends they've been tried for treason Gm G# And crimes that were never defined.
Cm She's saying "Love is like a barren place A# And reaching out for human faith Gm Is like a journey G# I just don't have map for Cm So baby's gonna take a dive and A# Push the shift to overdrive G Gm Send a signal that she's hanging All her hopes on the stars What a pleasant dream
