Chords for The Corrs - Before They Were Stars [Short Documentary]

[D] _ [G] So young now, so [C] young, so [D] young
Want to make a splash in the music biz?
First, [G] you have to be gorgeous.
I don't look in the mirror every day and go, wow, I'm [C] so sexy.
[G] Second, make friends in [D] high places.
Then, [G] throw in a little Irish [F] luck.
[Gm] Holiday _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [F]
land
_ [C] _ [Bb] _ _ [F] It's the Coors, the family [Gm] act from Ireland who set out [Bb] to conquer audiences
by [F] combining runway styles, excellent [Gm] bone structure, [Bb] and penny whistles.
[C] Before they set sail [F] for pop heaven,
sisters Andrea, Caroline, Sharon, and brother Jim rehearse the [C] old-fashioned way.
I don't look in the mirror every day [G] and go, wow, I'm so sexy.
Here are the Coors [C] busting it out to an invitation-only [D] crowd in Jim's bedroom back in 1990.
We're very, for some reason, very, [G] very serious about it, even as [D] children.
[C] We had a small, you know, eight-track studio in a small [D] bedroom,
and that's what we did [G] for quite a long time.
It was quite claustrophobic, [D] I remember.
[G] Eventually, they upgraded to a better venue, [Bm] the living room.
[Am] Oh, yeah
_ Those family [Em] jamborees were getting them places.
[A] In 1990, they scored an [G] audition for the hit [Am] film The Commitments.
Oh, [D] it's a [F] big, hot November
[Am] The singing was easy.
Then it was time for the awkward meet and greet.
[Eb] _
[F] Okay, just tell the camera your name, can you?
Sorry, my _ name's Jim Coors.
Tell the camera your name, [Db] Sharon, can you? _
Sharon Coors, Caroline Coors.
And how old are you, Caroline?
I'm 17.
[G] This is the first time you're singing in public?
Well, in public, yeah, like, yeah.
That's the first time in public for the whole lot of us together.
[N] They didn't land leading roles, but little sister Andrea got her fill of flattery.
Five minutes, Jimmy, and you have to go. You gorgeous
That one's short.
Her sisters had to settle for a bit part as a struggling [D] country act.
What?
The Coors were ready to be a real-life [G] band.
For [E] their big debut, they hit the local watering hole.
[G] Would you do whatever, please?
[Eb] All from one family on stage, [Bb] their first gig, The Coors. _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Eb] _
The hometown crowd sure [Gb] was digging it.
[Em] They even reached out to fans with this [C] artful video.
_ [F] _ _ _ _ [C]
When The Coors were good and ready, they took their act to the big city.
[F] _ _
[G] _ _ [Bb] We've been working on this for [F] like six years.
_ [G] _ _ [Bb] And now [F] we're playing in the stadium in Dublin, [Gm] in the capital city, and [Bb] 2,500 [A] people.
[Em] Just [Gbm] when things were starting to shine for this Celtic [A] quartet, Hollywood came calling again. _

Here's Andrea waging a show-tuned catfight with Madonna in the [Gbm] film Evita.

_ _ [D] Now, [A] where _ _ [D] am I going to?
You'll get why you [Gbm] always have before.
Where [D] am I going to?
Don't ask [A] anymore.
Her flirtation with Latin American [G] politics wouldn't last long.
The Coors were turning into pop globe [Am] trotters.
Soon, [G] audiences worldwide would fall prey to penny whistle [Am] mania.
The success is [G] so overwhelming.
[Am] Yeah, thunder only happens when [F] it's
