Intro: Am    Dm  G  (2x)  Am
                Dm    G                Am
Orbiting Jupiter with telescopic eyes
                              C          G 
Floating in the wonder of the weightless world
                              Am
Watching all the planets rise
                            Dm  
Gazing through the asteroid belt
G                    Am
Out beyond night and day
                       
Seeing with my own eyes
    G      Em     Am
The cosmic ballet
F               G
Ganymede and Io rising
Am
Talk about a haloed moon
F                       G
I am drifting wide-eyed listening
       Am                        G-C
To the static in the solar tune
Chorus:
               Am            F
There's comfort in starlight
             G              C
In moonlight guiding my way home
           Am            F
I'm falling for midnight
           G                   F
For lovely worlds of ice and stone
    G     F      G
And I am alone tonight
Am               Dm G                 Am
Orbiting Jupiter,   sailing on my own
                              C           
Headed for the heavens of the blue green world
    G           Am
I'm dreaming of home
                        Dm
Witness to the miracle
    G                   Am
Oh, I could testify all night
                   
Rolling in the blue tide
G              Em       Am
Howling in the moonlight
F                        G
Gazing on the gift we're given
  Am
A mystery from a magic storm
F                 G
Turning to secret rhythm
Am                         G-C
Nestled in the spiral arm
Chorus:
               Am            F
There's comfort in starlight
             G              C
In moonlight guiding my way home
           Am            F
I'm falling for midnight
           G                   F
For lovely worlds of ice and stone
    G     F      G
And I am alone tonight
Bridge:
                                F
I want to see the world through other eyes
                     G
Some electron in the Milky Way
                      F
I want to meet a man Orion's size
                         G
I want to hear the giant lyre play
               F
And Canis bay____
Interlude: G   F   G   C
Chorus:

There's comfort in starlight
             G              C
In moonlight guiding my way home
           Am            F
I'm falling for midnight
           G                   Am
For lovely worlds of ice and stone
