Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Have you ever  seen Sydney from a 747 at night, yea-ah
Sydney  shines such  a beautiful light
 And I  can see Bondi through the window way off to the right, yea-ah
 And a curling  wave on a distant  break and the sleeping  city just about  to wake
 Have you ever  seen Sydney from a 747  at night
Now  the red roof's are catchin' the first rays of the morning sun, yea-ah
 My eyes  are full of sand  from my midnight run
 And the Captain  says belt up now, we'll be touchin' down in ten, yea-ah
 So I press  my seat and I straighten  up, I fold  my tray and I stash  my cup
 As the red  roof's are catchin' the first rays  of the morning sun
Have  you ever fallen for a girl with different coloured eyes, yea-ah
 And sent  her letters with  one or two lies
 Have you ever  longed to see the sun fall where it used to rise, yeah
 And quit  your job on  the spot, bought  that ticket, yeah then spent  the lot
 Have you ever  fallen for a girl  with different coloured eyes
Have  you ever seen Sydney from a 747 at night  x 3
Me,  I've never seen Dallas  from a DC-9
 This is the best I can do from memory though I think it's close . Comments,
 corrections and/or rating appreciated. enjoy!
