1st Verse: 
(A)               Bm  
Shes taking her time making up 
     A  
The reasons 
 F#m                   G  
To justify all the hurt inside 
           Bm  
Guess she knows from the smile 
         A  
And the look in their eyes 
      F#m  
Everyones got a theory about the 
 G  
Bitter one; they're saying 
 Bm  
Mamma never loved her much 
     A  
And daddy never keeps in touch 
 F#m  
Thats why she shies away from 
 G  
Human affection 
    Bm  
But somewhere in a private place 
    A  
She packs her bags for outer space 
 F#m                             G  
And now shes waiting for the right 
 
Kind of pilot to come 
           (Fill 1) 
And she'll say to him  
Shes saying 
 
Chorus: 
 Bm                    A  
I would fly to the moon and back if 
    F#m  
Youll be 
          G      A  
If youll be my baby 
 Bm                    A  
Got a ticket for a world where we 
   F#m  
Belong 
              G       A  
So would you be my baby 
 
Interlude: Bm  A  F#m  G  
 
2nd Verse: 
(G)          A           Bm  
She cant remember a time when she 
      A  
Felt needed 
 F#m                             G  
If love was red then she was colour blind 
         Bm  
All her friends; they've been tried for 
  A  
Treason 
 F#m                     G  
And crimes that were never defined 
             Bm  
Shes saying love is like a barren place 
   A  
And reaching out for human faith is 
 F#m                         G  
Is like a journey I just don't have a map for 
    Bm  
So babys gonna take a dive and 
 A  
Push the shift to overdrive 
 F#m                            G  
And send a signal that shes hanging 
                     (Fill 1) 
All her hopes on the stars  
What a pleasant dream 
Just saying
 
Chorus
 
Solo: Bm  A  F#m  G  (repeat as required) 
 
 Bm  
Mamma never loved her much 
     A  
And daddy never keeps in touch 
 F#m  
Thats why she shies away from 
 G  
Human affection 
    Bm  
But somewhere in a private place 
    A  
She packs her bags for outer space 
 F#m                             G  
And now shes waiting for the right  
Kind of pilot to come 
And shell say to him 
Just saying 

Chorus twice
