E             G#                 Bm       C#        F#m             B
If the sun forgets to shine, can you just deal with candlelight for two?
B                    E
Oh, I hope that will do.
   E              G#                   Bm       C#      F#m     
So if your mockingbird don't sing, can you just love it for its wings?
B                                   E
Please do. Oh, Stella, what could I do?

Chorus

A                    B              E                   
So when you asked me on the phone, "Can I just help myself?"
E/D#
(I can't help myself.)
A         B       E
Stella, I lost my way.

So if you need to lay your head, then I can make room right beside my bed.
Do you mind the floor instead?
So as your mocking bird takes flight, the sun forgets to shine its light on you.
Oh, Stella, what could I do?

Transition: E E/D#

Bridge

C#                                          E
And if you need me, you know I'll run, run, run.
(Stella, you're on your own. Stella, you're on your own.)
C#                                         
When you know I'm leavin', baby, you'll know I'm gone, gone, go-gone, gone,
E
gone.
(Stella, you're on your own. Stella, you're on your own.)
C#                                         A                    B
And in the evening, you're gonna think I'm home but know you're alone.

E (for two bars)

So when you ask me on the phone, "Can I just help myself?"
(I can't help myself.)
Stella, I lost my way.
(Stella, you're on your own. Stella, you're on your own.)
