[C] I'm very proud tonight to introduce someone who over the years I know very well and whom indeed you all know
one of the true great world musicians Elton John singing Daniel
_ _ _ _ [G] _
[F] _ _ _ [C] _ [G] _ _ _ [C] _
[F] _ [C] _ [F] _ [C] _ Daniel is traveling tonight [Dm] on a plane
I _ _ [G] can see the red [Ab] taillights heading for [Am] Spain
[F] I [G] can see Daniel [Am] waving goodbye
_ _ [F] Oh, he looks like Daniel
Must [G] _
[F] be the clouds in [C] my eyes
_ _ [G] _
_ _ [Dm] _ [C] [F] They say [C] Spain is pretty
Though [Dm] I've never been
And [G] _ Daniel says it's the best [Ab] place he's ever [Am] seen
[F] And he [G] should know he's been [Am] there enough
Oh, [F] I miss Daniel
[C] I [G] _
_ [F] miss him [C] so much
Oh, [F]
Daniel my brother
[C] You are older than me
Do you [F] still feel the pain?
[C] Of the scars that would heal
Your [Am] eyes have died
Do you see more [F] than I?
[Ab] Daniel, [C] you're a star
[A] In the [Dm] face of the sky
[G] _ [F] _ [C] _
_ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ [G] _
[C] _ [G] _ _ [E] _ _ [Am] _ _ [F] _
_ [G] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ [F] Oh, Daniel my brother
[C] You are older than me
Do [F] you still feel the pain?
[C] Of the scars that would heal
Your [Am] eyes have died
Do you see [F] more than I?
[Ab] Daniel, [C] you're a star
[A] In the [Dm] face of the sky
[G] _ [C] And Daniel is traveling [Dm] tonight on a [C] plane
[Dm] I _ [G] can see the red [Abm] taillights heading for [Am] Spain
_ [F] _ [G] And I can see Daniel [Am] waving goodbye
_ [F] Oh, he looks like Daniel
Must [G] _
[F] be the clouds [C] in my eyes
Oh, [F] got it
He looks like Daniel
[G] Must [F] be the clouds in [C] my eyes
_ [G] _ [F] _ _ _ [C] _
[G] _ _ _ [C] _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ _ [F] _ [C] _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ [C] I [Gm] _ _ [C] _
[Cm] _ [F] _ [C] guess there are times when we all need [F] to share a little pain
[G] And adding up the rough spots
Is the hardest [F] part when [C] memories remain
And there's times like these
When we all need [F] to hear the radio
Got [G] to have [C] the lips to [G] sound more singin'
[F] You can say the [C] times that we already know
Turn em on, turn em on
[F] Turn em on, say a song
[G] When our hope is gone
[Am] Shoot it and [C] tear them [F] [C] up
[F] You know they're [C] reaching to your room
_ [F] Feel that little touch
When [G] our hope is gone
Say [Am] a song, say [C] a song, but
_ Someone [Cm] else has done already [C] enough
[F] Oh, to write it down
[G] When everything in the world makes sense
Then it is easy [C] to have those songs around
[C] The kick of a sunny day
And a smile [F] that leads to you
[G] It feels like it [G] could hurt so bad
And so [F] but just another sign of [F] love
[C] Turn em on, turn em on
[F] Turn em on, say a song
When [C] our hope is [G] gone
Shoot [Dm] it and [C] tear them [F] up
[C] You know they're reaching to your room
_ [F] Feel that little touch
When our [G] hope is gone
[F] Say a [C] song, say a song, but
[C]
Say [F] a song, [Bb] say a [F] song, but
Say [G] a song, [C] say [G] a [C] [F] song, [Bb] _ [F] but
Say a [G] song, say [Am] [Em] a song, [B] but
Say a song, say a song, but
[C] So turn em on, turn em on
[F] Turn em on, say a song
When [G] our hope is gone
Why don't you [F] shoot it and [C] tear them [F] up
[C]
[F] You know they're [C] reaching to your room
[E] _ [C] [F] Feel that little touch
[G] When our hope is gone
[F] Say a song, say a song, but
You [G] know that our hope is gone
[F] Say a song, say a [C] song, but
When [Db] every little [G] bit of hope is gone
[A] Say a song, say [C] a song, but
When [G] every little bit of hope is gone
[F] Say a song, say a song, but
[C] When [G] our hope is gone
Say [F] a song, say a song, [Cm] but
[F] _ [C] _
