Key: D
Introduction:
Bm E
By the sand and fire light
Bm E
While watching the fallin' star
Bm E
Came a lady from the night
G A B
Who started playin' on my guitar
Bm E
She was like a melody
Bm E
That no one had ever heard
Bm E
When she sang her magic song
G A B
I had to listen to every word
Em A
But she made me see
Em A
Like I never had before
Em A
Don't you know she set me free
Em A
Like I never been before
Am D
Don't you know the girl could sing
Am
And I thought of what the future
B
Would bring
Bm E
By the stars and fire light
Bm E
The music was sweet and clear
Bm E
Though I had her to myself
G A B
I was afraid someone else would hear
Bm E
Soon the others heard her playin'
Bm E
And started to gather round
Bm E
One by one they started stayin'
G A B
'Cause they couldn't believe the sound
Em A
And she made them see
Em A
Like they never had before
Em A
Don't you know she set them free
Em A
Like they'd never been before
Am D
Don't you know the girl could sing
Am
And I thought of what the future
B
Would bring
Bm E
I see her every now and then
Bm E
In movies and on T.V.
Bm E
Wonder as I sit there watchin'
G A B
If she ever thinks of me
Bm E
By the sand and fire light
(Oooooooooooooo)
Bm E
Before she became a star
(Ooooo just a melody)
Bm E
She was just a melody
G A B
When she was playin' on my guitar
G A D E
Playin' on my g...playin' on my g
G A B
Playin' on my guitar
