Capo on 3rd fret
               
 
 
 
 
( G )                ( Em )  
 Dark mascara dripping down my face 
( G )                ( Em ) 
 Only fools could ever feel this way 
( G )               ( Em ) 
 Send my message into outer space 
( G )               ( Em ) 
 Wonder if it's gonna float your way 
 
 G 
 I can't compete with the stars in the sky 
       Em 
 I'm invisible, invisible 
   G 
 I open the window to clear up my mind 
          Em 
 But it's difficult, so difficult 
 
 C 
 Houston, I know there's a problem here 
 D 
 Must be a hole in the atmosphere 
 C                          D 
 Baby, I wanna be closer to love 
 
 
 G                    Em 
 Patience, darling, wait for the night 
 C                    D 
 Darkness comes and love comes alive 
 G                    Em 
 I've been right here dreaming of you 
 C                D          G Em    C D 
 Waiting for my man on the moon... moon.. 
 
 
 G                        Em 
 Last night I was in your arms so strong 
 G                         Em 
 One small step and, baby, you were gone 
 G                          Em 
 Now there's meaning in the saddest songs 
 G                   Em 
 All I do is cry and sing along 
 
 C 
 Drinking alone in my party dress 
 D 
 Would you come back if I looked my best? 
 C                              D 
 Put on a smile and I said to myself 
 
 
 G                    Em 
 Patience, darling, wait for the night 
 C                    D 
 Darkness comes and love comes alive 
 G                    Em 
 I've been right here dreaming of you 
 C                D          G Em    C D 
 Waiting for my man on the moon... moon.. 
   G Em    C D 
 Moon... moon..

 G 
 I can't compete with the stars in the sky

          Em 
 But it's difficult, so difficult 
 
C            D    
 Château Marriott 
C                         D 
 Il m'amène au lieu du chevalier cet hivers

 Cinq, quatre

 troué, doux, homme 
 
 
 G                    Em
