Capo 2nd fret
--------------------------------------------
There's something wrong with my [F]hands
Oh yes, they're not [C]holding you
They should be enf[F]olding you like a mother's pouch
Around a [E]baby kangar[G]oo
That sparkle in your [E]eye
Shines like a shiny d[Am]iamond
In a s[G]hiny diamond r[C]ing
And like a [Dm]crow, don't you know,
I'm [F]helpless ar[G]ound shiny [C]things
When I got to this [C]dance bar,
At first I didn't feel like w[G]aiting
The lineup was so long But then I saw you and I thought 'I must be halluci[C]nating!'
But I was sober as a [F]nun,
And like a nun I [C]prayed
That we would dance one dance t[G]ogether
And fall in love forever and our love would never [C]fade
You're quite a talented d[C]ancer -
did you take a dancing class for [G]that?
And I like the way your pants are the same colours
As the colours of the band around your [C]hat
I must sound like a s[F]choolboy
I haven't got a thing to [C]say
But wait, this song they're playing is [G]great
And it says exactly what I've been trying to [C]say
When Lionel Richie wrote [Am]Hello
Was it [G]you he was looking for?
Not the blind girl in the [F]video
You know, the [C]actor and the amateur sculptor
Speaking of [Am]sculpting, my heart is spinning like a pottery [G]wheel
I feel like a ghost, I'm going crazy[F]
Is this how I'm supposed to feel?[E]
Like Demi and Swayze?
[F]There's something wrong with my [C]hands
They should be [F]holding you -
The way that [E]hands were meant to [G]do
That sparkle in your [E]eye
Shines like a shiny d[Am]iamond
In a s[G]hiny diamond [C]ring
And like a [Dm]crow, don't you know,
I'm [F]helpless ar[G]ound shiny [C]things
Solo:
Aaaaahhh Aaaahhaahah
[F] [C] [F] [E] [G] [E] [Am] [G] [C] [Dm][F][G][C]
Your face is kind of like a [C]planet
That hasn't been dis[G]covered
My heart's a space-pod that travels to your face's planet
And it will never be re[C]covered
My heart will roam the surface of your [F]face
Collecting data on your [C]lips
But I'll cut off all communi[G]cation with space stations
And my mother[C]ship
'Cause I don't want Earth to know [C]about you
No, they wouldn't unders[G]tand
Just you and me here in this galaxy
Like shipwrecked sailors on a tiny sandy [C]island
Like shipwrecked sailors deep in [F]love
Finally free to show their [C]feelings
Seen only by the m[G]illion blinking eyes of God in the dark sky
That is their island's c[C]eiling
And those million eyes are [F]shining
And I can see each one in y[C]ours
They say the eyes are little [G]windows to the [E]heart,
Well that's a start but I still [G]need to find the door
Still those sparkly eyes are s[E]hining
Like a shiny d[Am]iamond in a s[G]hiny diamond [C]ring
[Dm]And like a crow, don't you know,
I'm [F]helpless [G]around shiny [C]things
