I am happy, I [Ab] am thankful, [Eb] and I am proud
Said with a smile for [Ab] the cameras at [Eb] the countdown
But if [Cm] I'm honest, [Ab] I am seconds [Eb] from breaking down
[Cm] As you orbit, [Ab] gravity throws [Eb] me to the ground
But I'll be starrier, I'll [Bb] be starrier, I'll [Ab] be starrier
[Eb] [Bb] [Eb] for you
I brush the dust off, [Ab] gain composure [Eb] for another round
When did my life [Ab] become a series [Eb] of countdowns?
I [Cm] curse the heavens [Ab] for pulling you [Eb] away from me
And [Cm] at the same time, [Ab] I pray that you'll [Eb] find everything you seek
And [Ab] I'll be starrier, I'll be [Eb] starrier, [Bb]
I'll [Ab] be starrier [Eb]
[Bb] for [Cm] you
[Eb] I'll be [Ab]
starrier [Bb] for [Eb] you
The whole world stares up [Ab] in wonder at the [Eb] night sky
Oh, what a marvel to [Ab] see our dreams [Eb] so real-eyed
[Cm] But all these bright lights [Ab] run together [Eb] after a while
And our [Cm] blaze of glory [Ab] turns ordinary [Eb] overnight
Our [Cm] blaze of glory [Ab] turns ordinary [Eb] overnight
But [Ab] I'll be starrier, I'll be [Eb] starrier, I'll [Ab] be starrier for [Bb] [Cm]
you
[Eb]
I'll be [Ab] starrier
[Bb] for [Eb]
you
I am happy, I am [Cm] thankful, and [Eb] I am proud
Said with a smile for [Ab] the cameras [Eb] at the countdown
But [Cm] all these bright lights run [Ab] together after [Eb] a while
And our blaze of glory turns [Ab]
ordinary [Eb] overnight
