VERSE
Cmaj7 Bm7
There was that girl I used to know
Am7
She'd tease me about my name
Cmaj7/G Bm7/F#
Fan the embers long enough
Am7/E
I sometimes catch her flame
VERSE
Cmaj7 Bm7
The soothing voice of distance tells me
Am7
"That was just a fling"
Cmaj7/G Bm7/F#
Other music fills my ears
Am7/E
But I still hear her sing, she sings
CHORUS
Cmaj7 Bm7
Paddy Joe, say Paddy Joe
Am7
Don't you remember me?
Cmaj7/G Bm7/F#
How long ago one gorgeous night
Am7/E
We let the stars go
CHORUS
Cmaj7 Bm7
Paddy Joe, say Paddy Joe
Am7
Don't you remember me?
Cmaj7/G Bm7/F#
How long ago one gorgeous night
Am7/E [ Cmaj7 ]
We let the stars go free

VERSE
Cmaj7 Bm7
There was a boy I used to be
Am7
I guess that he was cold
Cmaj7/G Bm7/F#
If she came to buy him now
Am7/E
How cheaply he'd be sold
VERSE
Cmaj7 Bm7
But the light is gone and it is dark
Am7
What used to be the sky
Cmaj7/G Bm7/F#
Is suddenly embarrassing
Am7/E
To the naked eye, you see ...
CHORUS
Cmaj7 Bm7
Paddy Joe, see Paddy Joe
Am7
Can't face this memory
Cmaj7/G Bm7/F#
How long ago one gorgeous night
Am7/E
We let the stars go
CHORUS (variation)
Cmaj7 Bm7
Paddy Joe, see Paddy Joe
Am7
Can't face this memory
Cmaj7/G Bm7/F#
How long ago one gorgeous night
Am7/E
We let the stars go
Cmaj7 Bm7
Long ago one gorgeous night
Am7/E
We let the stars go
Cmaj7 Bm7
Long ago one stupid night
Am7 [ Cmaj7 ]
We let the stars go free
