[Bm7]I've never seen the sky so angry
[Em7]Star [Bm7]child
You've got to do something about these
Mind crimes
The shuffling feet and sad expressions
They don't go, they don't go
[C#m7]I thought you came down from [G#m7] heaven
To [A7]save [Bm7]souls
These angry men are into making
Bad seeds
The only thing we had they're taking
Now love needs
Needs a little, needs a little
Five thousand million people
To spread joy, spread a little joy
[C#m7]I thought you came down from [G#m7] heaven to save us
[D#m7]I thought you came but you [E11]just [E11]don't [C7]take [C7]us
(Chorus:)
[Bm7]Somewhere in the world tonight[Em7]
[C#m7]There's a fire blazing bright[G#m7]
Keeping warm the superman
Sent to us to save the land
Somewhere in the world today
A hungry one will kneel to pray
Wishing all the while to see
[Em7]Star [Bm7]child
I've ssen the preachers on the TV
In white suits
With precious stones they're studded into
Their boots
Can you take the money, can you take their money?
I don't knwo who to believe
Is it them or you?
I thought you came down from heaven to save us
I thought you came but you just don't take us
(Chorus)
Starchild
Got to see him now
(Bridges)
[F#m7]When you gonna come,[Em7] when you gonna com[F#m7]e
You've got to [Em7]save us from what we've begu[F#m7]n
From what we've begu[Em7]n
So long coming do[F#m7]wn
[Em7]Star [Bm7]child
(Chorus)
Somewhere in the world tonight
In the world tonight
Somewhere in the world tonight
In the world tonight
You know that somewhere in the world tonight
There's a superman
There's a superman and he's coming down to see you, baby
There's a superman coming
There's a superman coming
(Repeat with ad-libs to end)
