G G/F# Em C D G
I saw Cinderella / on Heartache and Vine
D G C D
She sang a capella / and turned dollars into wine
G G/F# Em C D G
Through the crowd I heard the melody / "Mississippi, Your On My Mind".
D G C D
And though no one noticed / I saw a tear fall from her eye
Chorus:
C D G G/F# Em
She's like a star that fell down / on the wrong side of town
C D G G/F# Em
But to me she shines / more than all these city lights
C D G G/F# Em
Back in Tupelo tonight / something's missing from the sky
C D G G/F# Em C D
Must be a star ... / That fell down
I took her picture standing / outside the Hollywood Bowl
She believes that one day / they'll come here to see her show
She waded in the fountain / among the wishes others threw in
She didn't have a penny / so I tossed one in
[Chorus]
In the City of Angels / big dreams die hard
Back home they don't know / she's been sleeping in her car
She parks it by a payphone / she gave the number to a friend of a friend
She's waiting on a ship that / ain't ever coming in
[Chorus] Last updated:
