Lyrics

[Intro]
| Cm | Bb/C | Gm | Ab |
| Cm | Bb/C | Gm |

[Verse 1]
Ab
  She's taking her time,
Cm                 Bb/C
  making up the reasons
Gm                   Ab
  To justify all the hurt inside
               Cm
Guess she knows  from the smiles
        Bb/C
And the look in their eyes
     Gm                           Ab
Everyone's got a theory about the bitter one
They're saying
Cm
  "Mama never loved her much
   Bb/C
And    Daddy never keeps in touch
Gm
  That's why she shies away
     Ab
From human affection."
Cm
  But somewhere in a private place
    Bb/C
She packs her bags for outer space
Gm
  And now she's waiting
        Ab
For the right kind of pilot to come (And she'll say to him)

[Chorus]
Cm                   Ab
  I would fly to the moon and back
             Bb            Gm
If you'll be,  if you'll be  my baby
Cm                        Ab
  I've got a ticket for a world
               Bb
Where we belong
               Gm
So would you be  my baby?

[Interlude]
Cm Bb/C Gm Ab                     Cm
             She can't remember a time

[Verse 2]
                 Bb/C
When she felt needed
Gm                             Ab
  If love was red then she was color blind
All her friends,
Cm                           Bb/C
  they've been tried for treason
    Gm                         Ab
And crimes that were never defined
She's saying
Cm
  "Love is like a barren place
   Bb/C
And    reaching out for human faith
   Gm
Is,  is like a journey
       Ab
I just don't have a map for."
   Cm
So,  baby gonna take a dive
   Bb/C
And    push the shift to overdrive
Gm                         Ab
  Send a signal that she's hanging
All her hopes on the stars (What a pleasant dream)

[Chorus]
Cm                   Ab
  I would fly to the moon and back
             Bb            Gm
If you'll be,  if you'll be  my baby
Cm                        Ab
  I've got a ticket for a world
               Bb
Where we belong
               Gm
So would you be  my baby?
