 G
 I once knew a girl I can't remember her name
          C                        F
 But I remember her face cos her sister looked the same
       G
 They both left school, but they couldn't find a job
     C                        F
 So they said farewell and stole a small town car

 C            A#m           G
 As they were riding by the beach some summer night
     C     A#m           G                                            F
 The radio shouted out one of those songs that might just change your life

 It went like this

  D        G           A  A9 A
 "Checkin' in checkin' out
  D      G            A                 D
  Making love I like watching all your fireworks
  Bm            G                  A             D
     I like it when I light those stars in your eyes
             E   C            D
  Just like fireworks in the sky"
           G  F  C   2x
 Yes it did

 G
 Throwing some poems to the ports and docks
             G                        F   C    G
 They were sleeping outdoors puching all their luck
      G
 They sent me a letter full of pills and thrills
           C                           F         G
 Then they both got rich and moved to Hollywood Hills

 C             A#m           G
 Yea they made lots of money playing folk guitar
 C        A#m                 G                                 F
 Cos everywhere the boys went crazy just to hear these words of art

 [CHORUS] as before
 & harmonica solo: just play D A D A throughout

  E        A           B
 "Checkin' in checkin' out   (take it to the sky)
  E      A            B               E            C#m
  Making love I like watching all your fireworks
            A                  B             F#
  I like it when I light those stars in your eyes
            A       D        E
  Just like fireworks in the sky"

 They're coming to get you
 They're coming to get you now   (right now)
 Coming to get you now
