Strum
D-DU-UDU
 He  was half buried in the sand
 Just  so out of place and ahh
 (pause)
 He  was a long, long way from home
 I was a long, long way from home
 And so we talked a little while
 Then I shook his hands....and I
 I was a long, long way from home
 (Pause)
 And  everything is wonderful
 When  everything's alright so alright
 There  we were
 (pause)
 One  less star tonight
 Na  na na na na na na
 Na  na na na na  na
  (Repeat)
 We thought a better place to go
 Might be the top of purple mountains
 So close to outer space....and ahh
 We were a long, long way from home
 We'd bring some records and a game
 Might take a walk or read a book
 But it's not the same....no ahh
 We're still a long long way from home
 (Chorus)
 (pause)
 I  saw a starfish on the ground
 Oh,  he was still buried in the sand
 Now  he's not so all alone
 And  he's finally going home
 So  I smiled and I shook his hands....and we were singin'
 Na na na na na na na
 Na na na na na na
 (Repeat)
 There  we were  one less star tonight
