       E               E G#
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.
