F                               C 
Sometimes there's no star shining 
F                               C 
Scouting the edge of the universe 
F                               C 
Sometimes you can't see a horizon 
F                             C 
Between the ocean and the earth 
F                                    C            B 
And just when you were thinking about slinkin' down 
Bb 
I'm gonna pull you up I'm gonna pull ya round 

F                              
May I remind you of that scene? 
C                         
The spirit is our gasoline 
F                              
May I remind you of that scene? 
         C     Bb       C   Eb      
We were arms aloft in Aberdeen 
F 
May I remind you of that scene? 
C 
Let a million mirror balls beam 
F                             C 
May I remind you of that scene? 

F                                           C 
And you say 'living ain't nothing but hassles' 
F                        C  
In a manilla envelope rain 
F                                   C  B                               
And driving coal all-night to Newcastle 
               Bb 
It's getting to be a repetitive strain 

And just when you thought you're going down the drain 

F           
May I remind you of that scene? 
C 
The spirit is our gasoline 
F 
May I remind you of that scene? 
         C      Bb      C   Eb 
We were arms aloft in Aberdeen 
F                              
May I remind you of that scene? 
C 
Let a million mirror balls beam 
F                             C 
May I remind you of that scene? 


I'm gonna pull you up I'm gonna pull ya round 

F 
May I remind you of that scene? 
C 
The spirit is our gasoline 
F 
May I remind you of that scene? 
         C      Bb      C   Eb 
We were arms aloft in Aberdeen 

F 
Let a million mirror balls beam 
C 
The spirit is our gasoline 
F 
May I remind you of that scene? 
         C      Bb      C   Eb 
We were arms aloft in Aberdeen 

F                                    Ab 
They say the stars can't see their rays 
C                                   Eb 
Nor can they count their numbered days 
F                                Ab 
No flower can says what perfume is 
C                              Eb 
We got all this and Bird and Diz 
F                            Ab 
May I remind you of that scene? 
         C      Bb      C   Eb 
We were arms aloft in Aberdeen 
F                             Ab  C 
May I remind you of that scene?
