I once new a girl I can't remember her name
But I remember her face cos her sister looked the same.
They both left school, but they couldn't find a job
So they said farewell and stole a small town car.
C A#m G
As they were riding by the beach some summer night
C A#m G F
the radio shouted out one of those songs that might just change your life
It went like this:
D G A
"Checkin' in checkin' out
D G A D Bm
Making love I like watching all your fireworks
G A E
I like it when I light those stars in your eyes
G C D
Just like fireworks in the sky"
Yes it did.
Throwing some poems to the ports and docks
D C G
They were sleeping outdoors puching all their luck
They sent me a letter full of pills and thrills
D C
Then they both got rich and moved to Hollywood Hills.
C A#m G
Yea they made lots of money playing folk guitar
C A#m G F
Cos everywhere the boys went crazy just to hear these words of art:
[CHORUS] as before,
& harmonica solo: just play D A D A throughout
E A B
"Checkin' in checkin' out (take it to the sky)
E A B E C#m
Making love I like watching all your fireworks
A B F#
I like it when I light those stars in your eyes
A D E
Just like fireworks in the sky"
They're coming to get you
They're coming to get you now (right now)
Coming to get you now
