(Chorus)
D G A D
You're my midnight girl and you're bouncing on my knee.
G E7 A
You're my midnight girl and would you go to sleep for me?
G A D Bm
And when you look up at the stars, well, I wonder what you see.
G A D
You're my midnight girl, come fly away with me.
D G A
I was dreaming of an answer to a prayer.
D Bm G A
Then I woke up and saw that you were there,
G A Bm G
My pretty little baby with eyes of shining blue.
A D
I've waited half a lifetime to meet you.
Now I find my life is really strange.
Take preconceptions and learn to rearrange.
Early to bed they said and early we would rise,
But I see that midnight sparkle in your eyes.
(Bridge)
A G D
Come along with me and we'll chase a comet's tail,
A G A
Fly the asteroids and unfurl our solar sail
C G A
And watch it shimmer gently in the light,
C G D
But now, my dear, it's time to say good night.
F/D(5) Eb/D(3) D F/D(5) Eb/D(3) D
It really is much later than it seems
So till the morning, I wish you pleasant dreams.
And I'm sure it is much wiser to sing softer lullabyes,
But this one's for the stars there in your eyes.
(Chorus to end)
G A D
You're my midnight girl, come fly away with me.
F/D(5) Eb/D(3) D F/D(5) Eb/D(3) D
