7Verse 1:
A#9
8I've been a lot of places all around the way
A#10
9I've seen a lot of joy, and I've seen a lot of pain
             D#11
10But I don't want to write a love song for the world
       A#12
11I just want to write a song about a boy and a girl

13
A#13
14Junkies on the corner, always calling my name
A#14
15And the kids on the corner playing ghetto games
         D#15
16When I saw you getting down, girl, I hoped it was you
            F16
17And when I looked into your eyes, I knew it was true

27Verse 2:
A#26
28Now I'm not a highly metaphysical man
A#27
29But I know when the stars are aligned you can
D#28
30Bump into a person in the middle of the road
A#29
31Look into their eyes, and you suddenly know
F30                          D#31
32Rocking in the dance hall, moving with you
A#32
33Dancing in the night in the middle of June
