We're Abuilding a E/G#home on the Amside of a Dmountain
ACbove the Bmclouds, Anext to the Bsky
And Aafter our E/G#labours the Amstars will be Dneighbours
We'll Ctake our Bmplace Awith them in Bspace

We're Cadd9not using concrete or Am7plaster or wood -
They'd Glower the tone of our D/F#new neighbourhood
And Cadd9mortar will crumble with Am7age and neglect
We're Gbuilding our home upon D/F#love and respect
[Chorus]
Cadd9And when we've built it C/Bwe'll Am7call it AnD7sus2dromeda Cadd9Heights

[Verse 1]

A E/G# Am D

We're building a home on the side of a mountain

Above the clouds, next to the sky

A E/G# Am D

And after our labours the stars will be neighbours

C Bm A B

We'll take our place with them in space

[Bridge 1]

Cadd9 Am7

We're not using concrete or plaster or wood -

We're building our home upon love and respect

[Chorus]

And when we've built it we'll call it Andromeda Heights

When we've built it we'll call it Andromeda Heights

A E/G# Am D

We're building a home on the side of a mountain

Above the clouds, next to the sky

A E/G# Am D

Our plans are ambitious - a blueprint of wishes

C Bm A B

That will come true and when they do

[Bridge 2]

Cadd9 Am7

Folks in the valley will look up and say

G D/F#

"You've finally built it can we come and stay?"

Cadd9 Am7

And cynics will marvel and say "we confess -

G D/F#

There were times when we thought it was just an address!

[Chorus]

Cadd9 C/B Am7 D7sus2 Cadd9

But now that we've seen it we know it's Andromeda Heights

C/B Am7 D7sus2 Cadd9

Now we've seen it we know it's Andromeda Heights

Now we've seen it we know it's Andromeda Heights."
