D-DU-UDU
My  life is brilliant, my  love is pure.
I  saw an angel, of  this I'm sure.
Forever  young,  I wanna
be  forever young.
I  won't hesitate  no more,
 no more,  it cannot wait,  I'm yours.
This  is the way you left me,
I'm  not pretending,
No  hope, no love, no glory,
No  Happy ending.
Cause  you are amazing,
We  did amazing, things.
 If I could,  then I would,
I'll  go wherever  you will, (go)
Can  you feel,  the love  tonight?
 And she will,  be loved,
 Yeah she will,  be loved.
 Pictures of you,  pictures of me,
 up upon your wall  for the world to see.
 'cause I cant live,  with or without  you.
 And if I fall, at  your feet.
 You'll let your tears,  am I not pretty  enough,
 is my heart  too broken.
 (DOUBLE TIME)
 When I find  myself in times  of trouble,
Mother  mary, comes  to me.
 Sometimes I feel  like I dont  have a partner.
 That's the way  it's gonna be,  little darlin',
 We'll be ridin'  on the horses, yeah  yeah.
No woman,  no cry,
 It surely  is a dream,
 I come from the land  down under.
Once  a jolly swagman, camped  by a billabong.
Take on me,(When  I come around)
Take Me On,(When  I come around)
I'll be gone
 In a day or, two.
Save  tonight,  (Gonna take a lot to drag me away from you.)
Fight  the break of dawn.
 Come  tommorow,  (There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do.)
 tommorow  I'll be  gone.
 (STRUCTURE CHANGE)
 I know  she's playin  with me,
 But thats okay  'cause I've got no  self-esteem.
 With a thousand  eyes  and a good  disguise,
 hit 'em right  between the eyes,  hit 'em right  between the eyes.
 'Cause I'm  not here  for your entertainment,
 you don't really  wanna mess  with me  tonight.
 Cant read my, cant  read my, no  he can't read  my,
poker  face,  come  on Barbie lets  go party.
Lost  and insecure, you  found me,  you found me.
 She wants to touch me (woo-hoo),
 She wants to love me (woo-hoo),
 She'll never leave me (woo-hoo-oh-oh-oh).
 Control yourself,  take only what you need  from it.
Take  your canvas bags,  take your canvas bags,
 Take your canvas bags,  to the supermarket.
Take  your canvas bags.
 (BACK TO ORIGINAL CHORD STRUCTURE)
 Nothings right I'm torn,
 I'm all out of faith,
 this is how I feel,
 I'm cold and I am shamed,
 lying naked on the floor.
 Illusion never changed,
 into something  real,
 I'm wide awake and I  can see I'm more than a bird,
 I'm more than a plane,
 I'm a bird-plane,
 I'm a bird-plane,
 A mother fucking bird-plane.
 Doesn't that sound familiar,
 doesn't that sound too close  to home
 doesn't that make you shiver,
 the way things could have gone.
 And doesn't that seem peculiar,
 'cause everyone wants a little  more,
 there's something I do remember,
 to never go this far,
 thats all it takes to be a star.
