C5                         E5
Miles of highway poppies, a stretch of maybe flowers
D5                  G5
Past Signal Hill a ways
 C5                           E5
We were parked and searching
                     D5                  G5
For a hubcap rolling into the fields of thorns

F5           G5       ?/G#5     A5      D5 *
Although we couldn't see a thing that night

C5  F5   C5  F5
Stars still shone
         C5        F5
In their slowness
         C5        
And their slowness
C5    G5         C5
Took us by surprise

 C5                 E5      
If I never told you how you helped to rescue
D5                   G5
The car and all inside
 C5                           E5
Remember roads were steep and
                          D5                       G5
You and I went sliding down the grade from Gate's Pass

F5       G5     ?/G#5      A5     D5 *                        
You asleep and me behind the wheel hovering
C5  F5     C5   F5
  In that slowness
        C5       
And that slowness
 C5    G5       C5
Has never gone away 


(VERSE chords) [solo/melody/whistle] C5 E5 D5 G5 x2

F5           G5       ?/G#5     A5      D5 *
Although we couldn't see a thing that night

C5  F5   C5  F7M...
Stars still shone, stars still shone, stars still shone,
         C5        F7M...
In their slowness, in their slowness, in their slowness...
         C5        
And their slowness
C5    G5         C5
Never gone awa-a-ay
