       D
Let's take off in flight
     D6
And race through the sky
              D7
And like the hundreds of airplanes we're
                 G
floating way up high
       D
We'll never look down
        D6
We'll build our own town
               D7
And like the thousands of clouds we will
                   G
never touch the ground

               Bm         A     G
But would you risk some broken bones
         Bm    A         G
Just to call this place home
               A
This could be home

Chorus:
           D
Maybe I'm down low, maybe I'm up high
           A
Maybe I'm losing my own mind
                C
You know that there are no other two hearts
             G
closer than ours
              D
Maybe you'll follow, maybe you'll stay
                 A
I'm praying you won't give yourself away
               C
You know that you are the only one
                G
I promise the stars
     D  G
You are

With your hands in mine
We'll soar through the night
And like the dozens of space ships
We'll dance with satellites
We'll keep our eyes closed
And we won't let go
And with the millions of stars
We will never be alone

But would you risk the broken bones
Just to call this place home?
This could be home

Chorus

D                   G
I want you my only lover
    D                   G
And I want you my only lover

Chorus:
Well, maybe I'm down low
Maybe I'm up high
Maybe I'm losing my own mind
You know that there are no other two hearts
Closer than ours
Maybe you'll follow
Maybe you'll stay
I'm praying you won't give yourself away
You know that you are the only one
I promise the stars
