Intro: Bsus - F#sus - Abm7 - E - E - F#sus - E - F#sus
Verse 1:
C#sus Ebsus Esus F#sus*
We keep our love in a plain brown box, We keep it tied with a simple lock
C#sus Ebsus Esus F#sus*
We hold it close because it's all we got, We think it's ordinary but it's not
C#sus Ebsus Esus F#sus*
In a world that starting to fade, A little love could pave the way
C#sus Ebsus Esus F#sus
Don't keep it tied with a simple lock, You think it's ordinary but it's not
Chorus:
Bsus F#sus
And maybe this life is
Abm7 E
Just about love and tenderness if
E F#sus E F#sus
All we are, are shooting stars
Bsus F#sus
And maybe we we can't fight
Abm7 E
All of this pain and loneliness if
E F#sus E F#sus
All we are, are shooting stars
Verse 2:
C#sus Ebsus Esus F#sus*
Tired of hearin' 'bout the bling bling, We're so concerned with material things
C#sus Ebsus Esus F#sus*
It's all cars and diamond rings, And do you think it's gonna ease your sting
C#sus Ebsus Esus F#sus*
'Cause that's a hole that you can't fill, Velvet rope overkill
C#sus Ebsus Esus F#sus
Free your mind let your heart sing, And just remember that they're only things
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
Abm7 F#sus
I used to live by the minute
E F#sus
I was too blind to see
Abm7 F#sus
Now I found the strength to admit it
E F#sus
Now it's all I believe, please please
Solo: (play chorus chords 1x)
Repeat Chorus
Outro:
Bsus F#sus Abm7 E Bsus F#sus Abm7
Shooting stars
E Bsus F#sus Abm7
Yeah we're shooting stars
E Bsus F#sus Abm7
We're shooting stars
(fade out)
