The first two notes of each verse are done accapella. ("Why do", "that is",

etc.)

[Verse 1]

Why do birds suddenly appear
E7 Em7 Am7
Everytime you are near?
Fmaj7
Just like me they long to be
Cmaj7
Close to you

[Verse 2]
Fmaj7 E7sus4
Why do stars fall down from the sky
E7 Em7 Am7
Everytime you walk by?
Fmaj7
Just like me they long to be
Cmaj7
Close to you

[Bridge]
F
On the day that you were born

The angels got together
Em7 A7sus4 A7
And decided to create a dream come true
F
So they sprinkled moondust in your hair of gold
G
And starlight in your eyes of blue

[Verse 3]
Fmaj7 E7sus4 E7
That is why all the girls in town
Em7 Am7
Follow you (Follow you) all around (all around)
