Capo 4th Fret


Intro:

    x2


Verse 1:

        
Life... a number and a name
                        
Don't know what to think, don't know what to say
               
Life... like the actor and the play
                               
When the curtain rises, you must take to the stage 



Chorus:
                          
You wanna stand on the moon
                       
You want it all too soon
                       
You must give it all away
                                
It's the price that you must pay



Verse 2 (as Verse 1):

Love... sometimes easy, sometimes strange
Like the pictures that you paint, sometimes clear and sometimes grey

Well love is like a book, with your writing on the page
But the words that you write, are not the words you wanna say



Chorus:
                          
You wanna stand on the moon
                       
You want it all too soon
                       
You must give it all away
                                
It's the price that you must pay



Verse 3 (as Verse 1):


Time... time just drifts away
Like the ending of the line
Like the parting of the way
Well time, time will never wait
Like the the thoughts all in my head
Can't be made to stay



Chorus:
                          
You wanna stand on the moon
                       
You want it all too soon
                       
You must give it all away
                                
It's the price that you must pay
