Telescope
Standard tuning.
The parts that are finger-picked go like this:
A
e|-----------|
B|---2-------|
G|-------2---|
D|-----2-----|
A|---0-------|
E|-----------|
D
e|---2-------|
B|-------3---|
G|-----2-----|
D|---0-------|
A|-----------|
E|-----------|
C#
e|-----------|
B|---6-------|
G|-------6---|
D|-----6-----|
A|---4-------|
E|-----------|
And the progression is basically A, D, C#, A. The repetition of each varies throughout
the song-- this should make sense when you listen it.
The chorus is not finger-picked, and these are the chords:
All the stars that shoot in the sky
A Ab Gb E D
They're falling in love with the sun
A D C# A
They're falling in love with the sun
A D C# A
I'm looking up through the telescope lens
I'm wondering where does the universe end
I'll take my clothes off for meteor showers
I'll take my clothes off and climb into bed
But all the stars that shoot in the sky
They're falling in love with the sun
They're falling in love with the sun
You're terribly happy that I came home early
I've fallen asleep in the afternoon
Get under the covers I'll give you some kisses
And we'll lie on the roof and stare up at the moon
But all the dumb cats in my neighborhood
I know they'll get me soon
They'll find a way into my room
Oh tell me a secret and tell me a story
Lets make up plans that will never come true
This is delicious, hey thanks for the dinner
I hear footsteps approaching, I'm hoping it's you
But all the blankets on the bed
They're tangled in heaps around you
I can't get my arms around you
They're tangled in heaps around you
I can't get my arms around you

version 2
All of the chords are barre chords, except E in the chorus. I'm pretty sure Mirah strums only the top few
strings, but it sounds fine either way.
The strumming pattern for the chorus is: DDD DDD DDD
