C                         Em
Miles of highway poppies, a stretch of maybe flowers
Dm                  G
Past Signal Hill a ways
 C                           Em
We were parked and searching
                     Dm                  G
For a hubcap rolling into the fields of thorns

F           G       ?/G#     Am      D *
Although we couldn't see a thing that night

C  F7M   C  F7M
Stars still shone
         C        F7M
In their slowness
         C        
And their slowness
C/B    G/B         C
Took us by surprise

 C                 Em      
If I never told you how you helped to rescue
Dm                   G
The car and all inside
 C                           Em
Remember roads were steep and
                          Dm                       G
You and I went sliding down the grade from Gate's Pass

F       G     ?/G#      Am     D *                        
You asleep and me behind the wheel hovering
C  F7M     C   F7M
  In that slowness
        C       
And that slowness
 C/B    G/B       C
Has never gone away 


(VERSE chords) [solo/melody/whistle] C Em Dm G x2

F           G       ?/G#     Am      D *
Although we couldn't see a thing that night

C  F7M   C  F7M...
Stars still shone, stars still shone, stars still shone,
         C        F7M...
In their slowness, in their slowness, in their slowness...
         C        
And their slowness
C/B    G/B         C
Never gone awa-a-ay
