Intro: riff 1



G#
The light was leaving in the west it was blue
C#
The children's laughter sang
G#
And skipping just like the stones they threw
C#
Their voices echoed across the way
D#7
It's getting late....


G#          F#            C#
And it was just another night
       D#7           G#
With a sunset and a moonrise
F#          C#                D#7             
Not too far behind to give us just enough light
  G#        F#              C#
To lay down underneath the stars
               D#7                G#
We listened to papa's translations
       F#                  C#
Of the stories across the skies
            D#7               G#
We drew our own constellations

solo

G#
The west winds often last too long 
C#
And when they calm down, nothing ever feels the same
G#
Sheltered under the Kamani tree
C#
Waiting for the passing rain
G#
Clouds keep moving to uncover the sea
C#
Stars up above us chasing the day away
G#
To find the stories that we sometimes need 
C#
Listen close enough and all else fades 
D#7
Fades away 

G#         F#           C#
And it was just another night
        D#7          G#
With a sunset and a moonrise
F#             C#            D#7
Not so far behind to give us just enough light 
  G#        F#               C#
To lay down underneath the stars
          D#7
Listen to all translations
G#     F#                  C#
Of the stories across the sky
             D#7 
We drew our own constellations
