I've been sitting here so long for you to [D] hear my songs.
For all [E] you want to know, have I been [A] on the radio?
Who's the biggest star I've seen?
What is [D] my favorite scene?
And if I [E] get the job, would I sing [A] on mass?
Yes sir, I would sing on mass.
I'd play upon [D] a star.
I'd sing songs [E] of descent.
And when [A] my job was done,
[B] [A] I would say I love you so.
[B] And I'd like to [D] play one more,
just [E] to all young lovers, and for the [A] old.

[D] Tell me sir, [A] yet just how far, [D] I need to go, [E] to be a star?
I [A] have known my highs and lows.
I've [D] worked in every show.
I've played [E] in every town, and brought [A] some houses down.
Yet critics never notice me.
[C#m]
I'm not [D] a star, you see.
And yet [E] I give my heart to every [A] pair.
I would stand for [B] hours and hours.
[A]
I'd wait [D] through sun and showers.
With my [E] dancing shoes, and my [A] dreams on view.
I'd walk upon an empty stage, with one [D] light in my face.
To be [E] told, don't phone us, but we'll [A] phone you.

Every [A] day the same old scenes.
The same [D] old happenings.
A hundred [E] miles of shows, and yet no [A] place to go.
And when your luck is all run out, you're asked to [D] take a bow.
You've [E] just stolen the show, but now you're on your [A] own.
[B]
[A]
[D] Yes sir, I, yeah you [A] would sing on my eyes.

My dream scene, [E] is me the star, me a star.
I am a star.
