Star Song chords by Amanda Palmer

Verse 1:

Dm
It's getting cold, I'm underdressed

Dm
I'm still not sold on this whole mess

C
You told me ' give it all away

C
Just trust, it will come back someday


Bb              G
I gave my voice, I gave my time

                Dm Dm C C Bb
Was there a choice, and was it mine?

              G
I leant out every stitch I had


              Bb

Now nothing left except this faith

This old idea it's gonna rain

This sad old lie it's gonna rain

Bridge:

         Bb               C
When there are billions and billions of us all looking for love

    Dm                C
With billions of eyes all fixed on something above

       Bb              C
And we're all waiting for the pyro at the end of the show

     G                 A    Bb
But the lights we're staring up at died out centuries ago


Chorus:

            Dm  F
Do you think that the stars

        C         G
Are going to spend their light on you?

you really think that the stars

     C         G
Give a shit what you might do?


             Dm  F
Do you think that the stars

        C          G
Are going to spend the night with you?

              Dm  F
You really think that the stars

     C         G
Give a shit what you've been through?
