Seen a shooting star tonight
      A              E
And I thought of you
E                               E/g#
You were trying to break into another world
  A
A world I never knew
A                B
I always kind of wondered
       E            A
if you ever made it through
       E               E/g#
Seen a shooting star tonight
      A             E
And I thought of you.

Seen a shooting star tonight
And I thought of me
If I was still the same If I ever became
what you wanted me to be
Did I miss the mark or overstep the line
that only you could see
Seen a shooting star tonight
And I thought of me.
C#m                  /c
Listen to the engine listen to the bell
/b                    /a#
As the last firetruck from hell
A                B                   E
goes rolling by, all good people are praying
         C#m                 /c
It's the last temptation the last account
         /b                      /a#
The last time you might hear the sermon on the mount
A                 B''
The last radio is playing.


Seen a shooting star tonight slip away
Tomorrow will be another day
Guess it's too late to say the things to you
that you needed to hear me say
Seen a shooting star tonight slip away.
