[INTRO]
|F#m |A |E |B |

[VERSE 1]
[F#m] You were waiting outside for me.[A] .. in the sun
[E] Laying down to soak it all in.[B] .. before we had to run
[F#m] I was always ten feet behind [A]you... from the start
[E] Didn't know you were gone.[B] ..'til we were in the car

[CHORUS]
[A] Oh, the glory of it all.[E] .. was lost on me
[A] 'Til I saw how hard it'd be to rea[B]ch you, and I would always be
[A] Light years, light years a[E]way from you
[A] Light years, light years a[B]way from you

[VERSE 2]
[F#m] I thought I saw your mother last week[A]end... in the park
[E] It could've been anybody.[B] .. it was after dark
[F#m] Everyone was lighting up in th[A]e shadows... alone
[E] You could've been right there next to me.[B] .. and I'd have never known

[CHORUS]
[A] Oh, the glory of it all.[E] .. was lost on me
[A] 'Til I saw how hard it'd be to rea[B]ch you, and I would always be
[A] Light years, light years a[E]way from you
[A] Light years, light years a[B]way from you
[A] Light years, light years a[E]way from you
[A] Light years, light years a[B]way from you
