D          E   D   E
Fill the sky with love
D          E   D   E
Fill the sky with love

D           E                 D                 E
I wouldn't mind but she just turned up on the doorstep
D            E      D            E
Wistfull and ashen, slightly bedraggled
D            E               D              E
Last time I saw her she was howling at the moon
D            E      D           E
Roaming the forest, lupine and rabid

F#m E         D   F#m       G#m    D          A
Woah, is she wild? Does she see my inner child?

Chorus:
A     E        Bm        D
But then she knows it's like a curse
A   E          Bm   D
To find our chosen roles reversed
A  E     Bm D
To unify my universe
A   E       D   E D
To call me mellow

If I was only half my age and she was older
We'd live on ice cream on Coney Island
And though it's gravity that drags down my balloon
She stays in orbit way after midnight

Woah, slip and slide - does she go all dewey-eyed?

Chorus:
But then she knows it's like a curse
To find our chosen roles reversed
To unify my universe
To call me mellow

F#m     G#m   A
She'll dress down for us
F#m     E         A
She'll break new ground for us
F#m     G#m   A      E
Watching me cracking up
F#m     G#m   A
She'll hang round fellahs
F#m  E         A
With all the ground swellers
F#m G#m  A          E   A
Driving me like a truck

Chorus:
But then she knows it's like a curse
To find our chosen roles reversed
To unify my universe
To call me mellow

Fill the sky with love
Fill the sky with love
