A Lone Star

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E) Intro: D Em D Em A Verse: D Em Do the stars get lonely G D Do they ever lose their will to try D Em What makes a star go supernova G D And blow itself out of the sky D A desperate play for attention Em A way to say hey G Here I stay D I am me D 'Cause there's nothing Em G Sadder... sadder... sadder... D Than beautiful things left unseen

Chorus: G But... you don't know me D But... soon you'll see A G That the biggest stars aren't always the brightest D They're only closer and easy to see G But... I'll do my best D I'll out shine the rest G A Maybe then, maybe then D You'll know I would have made a really good friend D Em I look to the stars for direction G Their brilliance, it bleeds D Through the frozen night sea D Em I see them and see my reflection (this light now) G D There's something shining in me D Em But when a star goes supernova G D Oh what a sight to behold D Em At least for a second... a second... a second G G That little star felt what it's like to be known Chorus: G But... you don't know me D But... soon you'll see A G That the biggest stars aren't always the brightest D They're only closer and easy to see G But... I'll do my best D I'll out shine the rest G A Maybe then, maybe then D You'll know I would have made a really good friend Chorus: (this time, only strum twice on each chord) G But... you don't know me D But... soon you'll see A G That the biggest stars aren't always the brightest D They're only closer and easy to see G But... I'll do my best D I'll out shine the rest G A Maybe then, maybe then D You'll know I would have made a really good friend Repeat the same chord and strumming pattern for the outro until it ends
