3 Chord song, except for the breaks and intro.

Use the I IV and V major chords, with II minor for the break part.

This is the first transcription i've put to paper after using a lot of other 
people's material to help my own learning - it's nice to give something back :)

shooting stars flash by
Eb                                              
    The moon exploded in the sky
Ab 
    Her heart flipped when they kissed

    Star dust on her lips
Ab
 Special pact in the dark

 Getting pissed in the park
Ab
 She's in love
Ab
 She's in love

Pre-chorus
----------

C#
 And when they walked downtown all the people would stare

 They used to laugh at her clothes and the color of their hair

 She was 17 and she didn't care
Eb
 Cause baby's gonna take her everywhere

------

Ab                                                         Eb

 stars would be their own
Ab                            Eb                         
 She was Debbie Harry

 And the stars would be their own
Ab                   Eb
 She was Debbie Harry
