Here is an oldie and a goodie.  Enjoy. 
 
Shooting Star 
Harry Chapin    (klr) 
 
E5
He was crazy, of course 
          C5      
>From the first she must have known it 
    D5                 B5
But still she went on with him 
        G5              E5
And she never once had shown it 
            
And she took him off the street 
        C5
And she dried his tears of grieving 
    D5               B5
She listened to his visions 
       G5                E5
She be lieved in his be lieving 
C5
He was the sun burning bright and brittle 
    D5
And she was the moon shining back his light a little 
C5
He was a shooting star 
B5
She was softer and more slowly 
   A5
He could not make things possible 
    C5                              E5
But she could make them holy, Holy  
E5
He was dancing to some music 
       C5
No one else had ever heard 
     D5                B5
He'd speak in unknown languages 
              G5               E5
And she would translate every word 

And when the world was laughing 
       C5
At his castles in the sky 
      D5               B5
She'd hold him in her body 
         G5                E5
Until he once again could fly 
C5
He was the sun burning bright and brittle 
    D5
And she was the moon shining back his light a little 
C5
He was a shooting star 
B5
She was softer and more slowly 
   A5
He could not make things possible 
    C5                              E5
But she could make them holy, Holy  
    G5                           D5
She gave him a daughter and she gave him a son 
          B5
She was a mother and a wife 
      E5
And a lover when the day was done 
          G5
He was to far gone for giving love 
        D5
What he offered in its stead 
        B5
Was the knowledge she was the only thing 
     E5             G5    D5 E5
That was not in his head   
E5
He took off east one morning 
            C5
Towards the rising sun's red glow 
    D5                 B5
She knew he was going nowhere 
       G5                  E5
But of course she let him go 
                           
And as she stood and watched him dwindle 
         C5
Much too empty to be sad 
   D5             B5
He reappeared be side her 
               G5             E5
Saying "You're all I've ever had" 
C5
He was the sun burning bright and brittle 
    D5
And she was the moon shining back his light a little 
C5
He was a shooting star 
B5
She was softer and more slowly 
   A5
He could not make things possible 
    C5                              E5
But she could make them holy, Holy  
 
I hope you all enjoy that one.
