G          D/F#        A
Bye bye my friend, I'm leaving
    G                  D/F#        A
I'm gonna feast on the stars in the sky
    G            D/F#              A
And while I'll be gone, don't stop dreaming
G              D/F#          A
  And don't be sad and don't cry
       G             D/F#          A
'Cause lazy days and sunny rays will guide me
G           D/F#     A
Back home to where I belong
   G            D/F#                A
If God gives me grace, then He will find me a space
      G            D/F#         A
And I hope I'll be singing this song

Take a piece of life, it's alright
                 A
To hold back the night

E                  G
From time to time, though we're whole words apart
D                                  A
You will still hold a groove in my heart
E                          G
From time to time, we will fall side by side
                                    G
You'll still have that look in your eye
