Capo 1st Fret
C E F
Ocean of stars, why’ve i gone so far?
C
I miss my home
G
I hear those engines drone
C
The runway is set
E F C
Let’s move this fucking jet, i have to go
G C
Despite all the sleet and snow
F C
Just a late night host leaving Dallas
G C
With a portrait done in velvet
F C
Just a three night run at the palace
C G C
And I never in my life felt so alone
C
I worked for the show
E F
Stars would come and go

I worked the lights,
G
I even swept some nights
C E F
but now i’m the host that’s worthy of a toast
C G C
Don’t you agree, my little honeybee?

Just a late night king leaving Dallas
G C
With a portrait done in velvet
F C
Just a three night run at The Palace
C G C
I’ll be at 17th and Broadway by tonight

So far away from all these wonders
E F
Even as the roulette spins
C
I was escorted seventeen miles
G
Came upon all winds bend
C
Even in dreams of light
E F
I can still hear her call through the tall grass and weeds
C G C
I know that I’ll never be the same on this road to calvary
F C
Just a late night host leaving Dallas
G C
With a portrait done in velvet
F C
Just a three night run at The Palace
C G C
and I never in my life felt so alone
C G C
and I never in my life felt so alone
