[C#m] [A]
[E]
I [C#m] was tossing and turning [A] like [B]
a ship out in a storm.
[F#m] And I could [D] not feel the [B] spirit.
[E] There was nothing there at all.
[C#m] And I could not dial the number.
[E] And I could not make the call.
[F#m] Dancing in the [A] starlight.
[E] Dancing in the strangest falls.
[F#m] And I could not feel the spirit.
[E]
It was a thousand miles off course.
[C#m] Stumbling in the twilight.
[E] There was no one there at all.
[F#m] I was groping [E] in the darkness.
Seeing dangers in the park.
Yeah, [C#m] time to learn to silence.
[E] My back against the wall.
[C#m]
[F#m] Dancing in the [A] starlight.
[E] Swirling the water.
[B] Just like the [F#m] fetus on the ocean.
[A]
[E] Like the tickles on the wall.
[A] Turn up.
Turn up.
[E] Turn up.
Turn up.
[F#m] Even if you don't take risks.
[E] Even if you don't take a chance, you're bound to fall.
Oh yeah, sugar.
[F#m] You're sure.
Oh yeah, [E] I'm on the bar.
[C#m] Crying for salvation.
[E] There was nothing there at all.
[F#m] And I could not dial the number.
[A]
[E] And I could not make the call. Oh yeah.
[B] Dancing in the starlight.
[A]
[E] Fingers on the wall.
[F#m] You're the [A]
[E] child of God.
Dancing in the [C#m] starlight.
You're the [A] child
[E] of God.
And I'm gonna be [C#m] the [E] [A] child [E] of God.
Oh [C#m] yeah.
[A]

Dancing in the starlight.
