[Verse 1]
Fmaj7 C G
Children playing, night is falling,
Fmaj7 C G
Stars are winking... in the sky,
Fmaj7 C G
Supper's cooking, mama's calling,
Fmaj7 C G
But they're not ready... to say good - bye!
[Verse 2]
Fmaj7 C G
While you've been sleeping, I've been walking,
Fmaj7 C G
I've been restless, but I swear I don't know why,
Fmaj7 C G
I'm not crying, it's just raining,
Fmaj7 C G
And I'm not ready... to say good - bye!

[Verse 3]
Fmaj7 C G
We are dreamers, slowly waking,
Fmaj7 C G
We are shooting stars a - cross a midnight sky,
Fmaj7 C G
We are strangers... in the making,
Fmaj7 C G
We're not ready... to say good - bye!

Ghosts and angels, on my street now,

You're not ready... to say good - bye, we're not ready!
