[C]It’s just another [G]night, and I’m [Em][D]staring [C]at the Moon,
[G]I saw a shooting star and [D]thought of you.
[C]I sang a [G]lullaby by the [Em]water[D]side [C]and knew,
[G]If you were here I’d [D]sing to you.
[C]You’re on the other [G]side as the [Em][D]skyline [C]splits in two,
[G]Miles away from [D]seeing you.
[C]But I can see the [G]stars from [Em]Ame[D]rica [C]
[G]I wonder do you [D]see them too.


So open your [G]eyes and see, the way our [D]horizons meet.
And all of the [Em]lights will leave, into the [C]night with me.
And I know these [G]scars will bleed, but both of our [D]hearts believe,
All of these [Em]stars [C]will [G]guide [D]us [G]home.


[C]I can hear your [G]heart on the [Em][D]radio [C]beats,
[G]They’re playing ‘Chasing Cars’ and I [D]thought of us.
[C]Back to the [G]time you were [Em][D]lying [C]next to me,
[G]I looked across and [D]fell in love.
[C]So I took your [G]hand back through [Em]lamp [D]lit [C]streets and dew,
[G]Everything led [D]back to you.
[C]So can you see the [G]stars over [Em]Am[D]ster[C]dam?
[G]Hear the song my heart is [D]beating to.


So open your [G]eyes and see, the way our [D]horizons meet.
And all of the [Em]lights will leave, into the [C]night with me.
And I know these [G]scars will bleed, but both of our [D]hearts believe,
All of these [Em]stars [C]will [G]guide [D]us [G]home.


[C]And, [D]oh, [Em]I k[G]now,
A[C]nd o[D]h, I[Em] kn[G]ow,
[C]I can see the [G]stars from [Em]Ame[D]rica [C]
