Oklahoma Stars Chords & Lyrics - Turnpike Troubadours

[INTRO]
[D] [G] [D]

[VERSE 1]
Well the[D] night goes on forever when you try to make it last
We were [D]passing time together, just laying in the [D7]grass
And we [G]looked up at the heaven and we saw the worlds collide
We were [D]lying still and watching, they were flying through the sky

[CHORUS]
The [G]stars in Okla[D]homa
Never seen a [G]night so cool and [A]clear
Shootin' [G]stars in Okla[D]homa
Burn so [A]bright then they disapp[D]ear

[VERSE 2]
[G]Well the [D]moonlight has a way of throwing shadows on the night
It would [D]be a shame to waste it on a place we had to [D7]hide
With the [G]morning glowing bright and shining light upon our faces
We [D]faded with the dawning then we went our separate ways

[CHORUS]
'Neath the [G]stars in Okla[D]homa
Never seen a [G]night so cool and [A]clear
Shootin' [G]stars in Okla[D]homa
They shine so [A]bright, then they disap[Bm]pear

[BRIDGE]
Ah the [G]stars in Oklahoma and the banks in late September
And I [D]lead you through the darkness on a night you won't remember
Is [G]everyone that easy, do they all just play the fool
Are they [A]all just out here lookin' for a way to break the rul[G]es

[INSTRUMENTAL]
[D] [G] [A] [G] [D] [A] [D]

Well it[G] would [D]take a fool to say it, like a photograph o' grace
Fools n[D]eed supervision or a gift for saving [D7]face
Yeah, we [G]got it on a handshake, bought it for a song
Yeah, [D]chase a simple feeling for doing something wrong

[CHORUS]
'Neath the [G]stars in Okla[D]homa
Never seen a [G]night so cool and [A]clear
Shootin' [G]stars in Okla[D]homa
Shine so brigh[A]t, then they disapp[Bm]ear
Shine so brigh[A]t, then they disapp[D]ear
