Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[F]Never mind the stars in the sky
[G]Never mind the when and the why
[F]Got a feeling higher than high
[G]This is the real thing
[Dm][Em]
This is the [Dm]real [Em]thing

[Verse 1]
No more [Dm]living in [Em]shame
And [Dm]I'm not gonna run,
or gonna [Em]hide away
No more [Dm]telling all those [Em]lies
It's been too [Dm]long[Em][A]
No more [Dm]living in [Em]chains
No, [Dm]I don't give a damn,
what the [Em]people say
[Dm]There's no use holding back desire[Em]
[Dm]We've burnt our fingers now,
lets [Em]jump into the [A]flames

[Chorus 1]
[Fm]Never mind the stars in the sky
[Gm]Never mind the when and the why
[Fm]Got a feeling higher than high
[Gm]This is the real thing
[Fm]Never mind the rain and the storm
[Gm]We'll keep each other warm
[Fm]We got something stronger than strong
[Gm]This is the [C]real thing

[Verse 2]
Gonna [Dm]walk out hand in [Em]hand
So [Dm]let them criticise,
'cos they don't [Em]understand
We've got [Dm]nothing to [Em]hide
It's just [Dm]love[Em][A]
I've had e[Dm]nough of [Em]shy
So [Dm]let's go out,
and show them what we [Em]have inside
[Dm]There's no use holding back desire[Em]
[Dm]We've burnt our fingers now,
lets [Em]jump into the [A]fire

[Chorus 2]
[Fm]Never mind the stars in the sky
[Gm]Never mind the when and the why
[Fm]Got a feeling higher than high
[Gm]This is the real thing
[Fm]Never mind the rain and the storm
[Gm]We'll keep each other warm
[Fm]We got something stronger than strong
[Gm]This is the [C]real thing

[Bridge 1]

[Gm]Never mind, never mind
[Fm](Never mind the stars in the sky)
[Gm]Oh hoo baby
'Cause [Fm]I've got a feeling,
that's [Gm]higher than [C]high
