[Intro]
 
C     Bm    Am7
  Too-la-la taaaaa ta-da
C     Bm    Am7
  Too-la-la taaaaa ta-da
C      B      Bb     Am       G    G

[Verse]
 
G                       
I hope you don't mind if 
  G
I send you a thought
                 C       G          Am7
You're still the special person for me
G
I know I should reserve that

 feeling for her
           C             G       Am7
But I have fallen down a well of longing
    C                  Bm      Em
I'm in a valley deep inside the earth
Am7                     Am
  I'm in a rich vein of learning
C                       Bm           Em
 I'm stuck still in the depth of the mud
     F                
Just God and tree and 
             C
star for the journey
 
[Verse]
 
G                       
So listen friend you've 
       G
got my love and respect
         C            G     Am7
Do you believe in the life eternal?
G                   
 I've got a feeling 
         G
we'll be talking tonight
          C             
Because I knew you when 
   G         Am7
we were so little
C                 
  I knew you when 
  Bm          Em
I was a queer fish
Am7                        Am
 You were the one they all wanted
C                       Bm          Em
 I showered you with my light from afar
    F                     C
Now everyone is following you
                   G    G
You're the evening star
 
[Chorus]
 
Em        Em
  So many forces are pushing
A                       Bm  Em
How do you stay so calm?
           Em                     C
If I could master an hour of your peace
      Bm      Bb   
Maybe I would know 
       Am       G    G
how to let this go
 
[Instrumental]
 
 Am7     Am     Cm7     Cm
 Am7     Am     C  Bm   Bb  Am
 
[Verse]
 
G                   G
 I messed up on the practical side
          C            
I can't believe all the 
Bm         Am7
trouble it caused me
G                     
 I tried to make up on 
    G
the spiritual side
          C             G       Am7
My web of prayers and advice implore you
C                     Bm           Em
 To live happy in the best way you can
Am7                  Am
 To live with or without me
C                  
 And if I feel like 
     Bm         Em
I am wasting my time
     F                       C
I'll write another letter to sing
               G    G
To the evening star
 
[Outro]
 
        Am7
Evening sta-a-ar
     Am                      G    G
I'll write another letter to her
        Am7
Evening sta-a-ar
     Am                      G    G
I'll write another letter to her
        Am7
Evening sta-a-ar
Am                  Cm7    Cm
  Another letter to her
 
 Am7     Am     Cm7     Cm
 Am7     Am     C  Bm   Bb  Am   G
