Roll back the Clouds
(Christy Hennessy - Redemption Songs)

Verse:
                  GG                                CC
I've been sitting here so long, for you to hear my song,
            DD                                GG
And all you want to know, have I been on the radio,
                  GG                                    CC
Who's the biggest star I've seen, what is my favourite scene,
         DD                           GG
And if I get the job would I sing on Mars.
                GG                             CC
Yes Sir I would sing on Mars, I'd play upon a star,
         DD                            GG
I'd sing songs of the Sun and when my job was done,
              GG                                 CC
I would say I love you so, I'd like to play one more,
         DD                         GG
Just for all young lovers, for the road.

Chorus:

CC                 GG
Tell me Son, yeah just how far,
CC               DD
I need to go to be a star.


Verse:
                GG                                    CC
I have known my highs and lows, I've worked in every show,
               DD                        GG
I've played in every town, brought some houses down,
                  GG                              CC
The critics never noticed me, I'm not a star you see,
          DD                      GG
And yet I give my heart to every part.
                  GG                                      CC
I would stand for hours and hours, I'd walk through some showers,
        DD                    GG
With my dancing shoes and my dreams and views,
               GG                                CC
I walk upon an empty stage with one light in my face,
      DD                                    GG
To be told don't phone us, but we'll phone you.

Chorus:

CC                 GG
Tell me Son, yeah just how far,
CC               DD
I need to go to be a star.

Bridge:
              GG                                  CC
Every day the same old scene, the same old happenings,
          DD                     GG
AA hundred miles of shows and no place to go,
                       GG                                   CC
And when your luck has all run out, you're asked to take a bow,
            DD                                  GG
You've just stolen the show now you're on your own.

Chorus:

CC               GG
Yes Sir I would sing on Mars,
CC                 DD
My dream scene is me a star,

Outro:

   DD
Is me a star,
       GG
I am a star.
