INTRO 
  Bb/C   C   Bb/C   C   
  Bb/C   C   Bb/C   C   


VERSE 
      Bb/C                      C 
I was making my way through the wasteland 
    Bb/C                  C 
The road into town passes through 
      Bb/C               C 
I was changing the radio stations 
        Bb/C          C 
With my mind on you 


VERSE 
         Bb/C                     C 
Oh, your friends call you 'Lily Paloma' 
    Bb/C                        C 
But that's not the way that you are 
         Bb/C                C 
It's too much of a gentle misnomer 
      Bb             C 
For a shooting star 


BRIDGE 
    F 
But you and me, baby 
          C                F     C 
I saw you there, straight away I knew 
        F 
There's really no hiding 
                 C              F     C 
I tell you right now what we're gonna do 
Eb                      F 
We'll go collecting the days 
Ab                   G 
Putting the moments away 


Chorus 
Bb            C 
 You're on my mind 
                    Bb/C   C   
Like a song on the radio 
Bb            C 
 You're on my mind 
                    Bb/C   C   
Like a song on the radio 


INTERLUDE 
  Bb/C   C   Bb/C   C   
  Bb/C   C   Bb/C   C   


VERSE 
    Bb/C                    C 
I remember the first time I saw you 
 Bb/C                     C 
Alone in the dark, with a drink 
       Bb/C                   C 
With a candle flame burning before you 
         Bb/C                 C 
And your thoughts closed in 


VERSE 
         Bb/C                 C 
You were staring out into the distance 
    Bb/C                   C 
Not seeming to hear what I said 
    Bb/C                  C 
Why did you put up such resistance 
             Bb               C 
Like all the lights were red 


BRIDGE 
    F 
But you and me, baby 
          C                F     C 
I saw you there, straight away I knew 
        F 
There's really no hiding 
                 C              F     C 
I tell you right now what we're gonna do 
Eb                      F 
We'll go collecting the days 
Ab                   G 
Putting the moments away 


Chorus 
Bb            C 
 You're on my mind 
                    Bb/C   C   
Like a song on the radio 
Bb            C 
 You're on my mind 
                    Bb/C   C   
Like a song on the radio 


SOLO

VERSE 
        Bb/C                      C 
I don't know what it was that was painful 
    Bb/C                         C 
But sometimes it's there in your face 
          Bb/C                        C 
There are times when you just look disdainful 
       Bb/C        C 
Of the human race 



VERSE 
        Bb/C                  C 
Ah, but then on the wings of emotion 
   Bb/C                 C 
We circle each other in flight 
       Bb/C                    C 
Till together we roll like the ocean 
       Bb              C 
In its bed at night 


BRIDGE 
    F 
But you and me, baby 
          C                F     C 
I saw you there, straight away I knew 
        F 
There's really no hiding 
                 C              F     C 
I tell you right now what we're gonna do 
Eb                      F 
We'll go collecting the days 
Ab                   G 
Putting the moments away 


Chorus 
Bb            C 
 You're on my mind 
                    Bb/C   C   
Like a song on the radio 
Bb            C 
 You're on my mind 
                    Bb/C   C   
Like a song on the radio 


OUTRO 
    Bb/C   C 
Oh, woah  
            Bb/C   C 
Song on the radio 
    Bb/C   C 
Oh, woah  
            Bb/C   C 
Song on the radio 


  Bb/C   C   Bb/C   C
