Intro:
FF


Verse 1:
FF                Bb majorBb           C majorC
I think I'd prefer if you didn't know anything special about me
FF                 Bb majorBb             C majorC
Yes, I think it's best, given my high propensity for making poetry
           FF
Out of every shooting star

So, please, don't fall in love
                      Bb majorBb
I'm not the boy you should be plucking off petals for
      C majorC
Or telling secrets about
 Bb majorBb         C majorC
Believe me, I really want to feel it
Bb majorBb         C majorC
This time, I really thought I could

        Bb majorBb
But just when I started to feel happy again
        FF
That's when my heart went all to pieces my friend
        Bb majorBb             DbDb
Cause you never know what beauty you'll find
     C majorC   FF
Down the Velvet Goldmine

Verse 2:
FF
So, then let it snow
                   Bb majorBb
Let there be tinsel all trimmin' the boulevards
       C majorC
And all those baggage claims
FF                           Bb majorBb
I'll be at the movies. I'll have my own row at the Cinerama Dome
      C majorC          Bb majorBb
Handin' out miracles, givin' out angels wings
     C majorC
To every mother's child who knows:

        Bb majorBb
Whenever you're starting to feel happy again
         FF
That's when your heart goes all to pieces, my friend
        Bb majorBb              BbmBbm
Cause you never know what beauty you'll find
     C majorC   Bb majorBb
Down the Velvet Goldmine

Bridge:
Bb majorBb                       FF
Lai de dai. Lai de dai de dai de dai de dai de dai
                        Bb majorBb
Lai de dai. Lai de dai de dai de dai de dai de dai
                    FF   C majorC
Lai de dai. Lai de dai de dai de dai de dai de dai

Lai de da de da


Verse 3:
         Bb majorBb
'Cause maybe I'm starting to feel happy again
      FF
Maybe these arms won't know how to let go of him
        Bb majorBb
And are we the wise ones gathered

Confessing our fears
       FF
Searching the stars within us

That others might hear?

        Bb majorBb
There could be angels waiting to bring us the news
       FF
Of one little boy in love with the world left to choose
       Bb majorBb            DbDb
Can we leave all this heartache behind
    C majorC   FF
In the Velvet Goldmine?
