Chords for JANIS IAN * Stars *

[Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Ebm] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
I was [Bbm] never one [Eb] for singing _
_ What _ [Ab] _ I [Eb] _
_ really _ [Fm] _ _ feel
_ _ [Bb] _ _ [Bbm] Except tonight I'm bringing _ _ _ _
[Eb] Everything _ I [Bbm] know _ that's [Eb] real _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ Stars, _ they come [Eb] and go
_ They come [Ebm] fast or slow
_ They go [F] like the last light of the sun
_ [Bb] All in a _ [Bbm] blaze
_ _ _ And all you see is [Eb] _ _ glory
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Ab] Hey, but it gets [Eb] lonely there
When [Ebm] there's no one [Eb] here to share
[F] _ _ We [Bb] can shake it away
_ _ [Bbm] If _ _ you hear [Eb] a _ story _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ People lust for [Eb] fame
Like athletes [Ebm] in a game
_ _ We [F] break our collarbones
And come [Bb] up swinging
[Bbm] Some of us are down
_ Some of us are _ [Eb] _ _ crowned
And some are lost and never found
[G] But most have seen [Ab] it all
[Eb] They _ _
_ [Ebm] live their lives in [F] sad cafes
[Bb] And music halls
_ _ [Bbm] _
_ _ They always come [Eb] up _ singing
_ _ Some _ _ _ _ make [Ab] it when they're young
[Eb] Before the world [Ebm] has done its dirty [F] job
_ [Bb] Later on [Bbm] someone will say
You've had your day _ _
Now you must make [Eb] way
_ But _ _ _ _ they'll never know [Ab] the pain
[Eb] Of living with a [Ebm] name you never _ [F] owned _
[Bb] For the many [Bbm] years
Forgetting what you [Eb] know too well
That _ [Ab] the ones who gave the crown
Have been let down
You [D] tried to make [Db] _ _ _ _ amends _ Without [Eb] _ defending _ _ _ Perhaps _ [Ab] _ pretending
_ You never saw [Eb] the eyes
Of grown men of [Ebm] twenty-five
_ That _
[F] follow as you walk
And ask [Bb] for autographs
Or kiss you on the [Bbm] cheek _ _
And you never can believe
[Eb] They really loved you _ _ _ _
Some make it when [Ab] they're old
[Eb] _
_ _ _ [Ebm] Perhaps they have a [F] soul
They're not [Bb] afraid [Bbm] to bear
_ _ [Db] _ [Bbm] _ Or perhaps there's nothing [Eb] there _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ Stars, _ they [Eb] come and go
They come fast, [Ebm] they come slow
They go like the [Eb] last light of the [F] sun
All in [Bb] a _ [Bbm] _
blaze
_ _ And all you see is [Eb] glory
_ _ But _ _ _ _ _ most have [Ab] seen it all
[Eb] _ _ _ [Ebm] They live their lives [F] in sad cafes
[Bb] In music _ halls
[Bbm] _ _ _ _ They always [Eb] have a _ story _
_ Some _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ women [Eb] have a body men [Ebm] want to see
_ And [F] so they put it on display
Some [Bb] people play a [Bbm] fine guitar _ _ _
I could listen to them [Eb] play _ all day _ _ _ _
Some ladies [Ab] really move across [Eb] the stage
[Ebm] In cheer they sure [F] can dance
_ _ _ _ [Bb] I guess I could learn how
[Bbm] _ _ _ _
If I gave it half a [Eb] _ chance _
_ _ _ [Ab] But I always [Eb] feel so funny
[Ebm] When my body tries [F] to soar
_ [Bb] And I seem to [Bbm] always worry
_ [Eb] About missing the next chord
_ [Ab] _ I guess there [Eb] isn't anything
[Ebm] To put up on [F] display
_ _ Except _ [Bb] the tune
[Bbm] _ _ And _ _ _ _ whatever else I [Eb] say _
But _ _ [Ab] anyway, that isn't really
_ What I meant to [D]
say
_ _ _ [Db] I _ meant to tell a story
_ [Ab] I [Eb] live from day to day _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ Stars, they come [Eb] and go
_ They come in fast, [Ebm] they come slow
And they go _ [Eb] like the last light of [F] the sun
All [Bb] in a _ [Bbm] blaze _ _ _ _
_ And all you see is [Eb] glory _
But _ _ _ _ _ _ most [Bbm] have [Ab] seen it all
_ [Eb] _
_ _ [Ebm] They live their lives [F] in sad cafes
[Bb] In music [Bbm] _ halls
_ _ _ _ And we always have [Eb] a story
_ So _
_ [Ab] if you don't [Eb] lose patience _
[Ebm] With my [Eb] fumbling _ ground _
[F] I'll _ _ [Bb] come up singing [Bbm] _ for [Db] you
_ [Eb] _ _ _
_ _ Even when [Ab] I'm down
[Eb] _ _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ [Ab] _ _ _
_ [Dbm] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _
