Capo 1 fret
Intro:     
(pause)                        
I saw a starfish on the ground
                          
He was half buried in the sand
                          
Just so out of place and ahh
(pause)                          
He was a long, long way from home


I was a long, long way from home
And so we talked a little while
Then I shook his hands....and I
I was a long, long way from home

(Pause)           
And everything is wonderful
                             
When everything's alright so alright
       
There we were
(pause)               
One less star tonight

                  
Na na na na na na na
                
Na na na na na na
               (Repeat)


We thought a better place to go
Might be the top of purple mountains
So close to outer space....and ahh
We were a long, long way from home

We'd bring some records and a game
Might take a walk or read a book
But it's not the same....no ahh
We're still a long long way from home
(Chorus)

(pause)                 
I saw a starfish on the ground
                               
Oh, he was still buried in the sand
                    
Now he's not so all alone
                       
And he's finally going home
                             
So I smiled and I shook his hands....and we were singin'

Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na
(Repeat)

                               
There we were one less star tonight
       
There we were one more star tonight
