Look
[F#] [E]
[B]
at the stars, look how they shine [F#] for you
Everything [E] you do, yeah they were all [B] yellow
I came along, I wrote a song [F#] for you
And all the things [E] you do, it was called yellow
[B]
So then I took my [F#]
heart and, oh what a thing [E] to do
And it was all [B] yellow
Your [E]
skin [G#m] and, oh yeah your [F#] skin and [E]
bones

[E] skin [G#m] and, oh yeah your [F#] skin and [E]
