[intro]

D D G D D D G D
Late one night when the wind was still
D D A D D D A D
Daddy brought the baby to the window sill
D D G D D D G D
To see a bit of heaven shoot across the sky
D D A D D D A D
The one and only time Daddy saw it fly

A A D D
It came from the east just as bright as a torch
G D A D
The neighbors had a party on their porch
A A Bm G
Daddy rocked the baby, Mother said amen
D D A D
When Halley came to visit in nineteen ten

D D G D D D A D D D G D D D A D
[instrumental]

Now back then Jackson was a real small town
And it`s not every night a comet comes around
It was almost eighty years since its last time through
So I bet your mother would`ve said amen too

As its tail stretched out like a stardust streak
The papers wrote about it every day for a week
They wondered where it`s going and where it`s been
When Halley came to Jackson in 1910

A A D D G D A D A A Bm G G G G D D A D
[instrumental]

D5 ...
Now Daddy told the baby sleeping in his arms
To dream a little dream of a comet`s charms
And he made a little wish as she slept so sound
In nineteen eighty-six that wish came `round ... D D A D

A A D D
It came from the east, just as bright as a torch
G D A D
She saw it in the sky from her daddy`s porch
A A Bm G [pause]
As heavenly sent as it was back then
D Bm A D
When Halley came to Jackson in nineteen ten

A A D D G D A D A A Bm G D Bm A D
[instrumental]
D D G D
Late one night when the wind was still
D D G D D D A D.
[instrumental]
