[D#m] I woke up at 4.35, [G#] still jet lagged from another plane [C#] ride, and opened my window over Bondi
[F#] Beach, but all the stars seemed out of [D#m] reach, recognized none but the Southern Cross.
[G#] Sitting on my bed with the light turned off, [C#] till I found a sweet song on the [F#] little clock
radio, and it made me cry, [D#m] singing have some faith, [G#] have some faith.
[C#] And I [F#] don't know what I want, but I know where I [C#] want to be, and [F#] everywhere I go, I wish you
were here [C#] with me.
Stars [F#] hang on tiny strings, like dreams are made [C#] of memories, once [F#] everything made sense,
now I get so [C#] alone that [G#] I [F#] can't sleep, [D#m] somebody please tell me [G#] if this is where I'm supposed to [C#] be.
[F#] [Gm] [C]
[C#]
[D#] Bottles on [D#m] the table and socks on the floor, [G#] trying to remember what I started this [C#] for,
when a surfer friend of mine came and picked me up, [F#] and we paddled out as the sun was coming
[D#m] up, talking about how everybody has to [G#] find something that gives them the strength to
be [C#] alive, and I, laying on our boards in the [F#] southern hemisphere, you said to me, [D#m] gotta
have some faith,
[G#] have some faith.
[C#] And I [F#] don't know what I want, but I know where I [C#] want to be, and [F#] everywhere I go, I wish you
were [C#] here with me.
Stars [F#] hang on tiny strings, like dreams are made of [C#] memories, once [F#] everything made sense,
now I get so [C#m] alone that [G#] I [F#] can't sleep, baby, [D#m] somebody please tell [G#] me if this is where I'm
supposed [C#] to be.
