Introducción:
D F#m
Stars, they come and go.
F#m
They come fast, they come slow.
Cm B7
They go like the last light of the sun,
Em
All in a blaze.
A
And all you see is glory.
D
But it gets lonely there,
C# Gb
When there's no one there to share.
Em
We can shake it away,
A
If you'll hear a story.
D A
People lust for fame,
D7 D
Like athletes in a game.
Bm7
We break our collarbones,
Em7
And come up swinging.
A7
Some of us are crowned,
A
Some of us are downed
Em A7
Some are lost and never found.
D
But most have seen it all.
F#m
They live their Lives,
D Em7
In sad cafes and music halls
A
They always have a story
D
Some make it when they are young,
F#m Bm
Before the world has done its dirty job.
G Em7
And later on someone will say,
A7
"You've had your day,
A
now you must make way."
D
But they'll never know the pain
F#m
Of living with a name you never owned.
Em7 A7
The years of forgetting,
A
What you know too well-
D
That you who gave the crown,
F#m
Have been let down.
Bm7 Em7
You try to make amends
A7
Without defending
D
Perhaps pretending
A
You never saw the eyes
B7
Of young men at twenty-five,
who followed as you walked,
Em7
Asked for autographs,
Kissed you on the cheek.
A
And you never could believe,
They really loved you.
D
Some make it when they're old
F#m B7 Em7
Perhaps they have a soul they're unafraid to bare.
A7
Perhaps there's nothing there.
A D
But anyway that isn't what i meant to say
I'm meant to tell about a story
Cm F#m
since we all have stories
B7
I can't remember it anyways
Em7 A7
So I'll tell about the mood in the in United States today
Permeating even Switzerland
D
It Goes ...
D7 G Em
But I continue anyway til I get it together
Em7
Some women have a body,
A7
Men will want to see
A
So they put it on display,
D
Some people play a fine guitar.
A C
I could listen to them play all day.
B7
But anyway,
Em A
I'm trying to tell my story.
D
Janis Ian told it very well,
Bm Em
Janis Joplin told it even better,
Em7 A
Billy Holiday even told it even better.
D
We always,
A
we always,
Bm7 Em7
we always have a story.

Em
and the latest story that I know is the one that i'm supposed to go out with
