The Starliters First TV Performance - 1956 chords
Start Jamming...
Let's say in New Jersey now, a six-piece rock and roll combination.
They call them the Starlighters.
You boys in school, do you work or what?
We're two truck drivers, a truck driver's helper,
a color matcher for an ink factory, [G] and an aluminum awning installer.
Oh, golly, you really get around, [A] don't you?
Where have you played your rock and roll music?
Local charities and Catholic youth organizations in and around the [Db] state.
[Bb] All right, let's hear [B] some.
The [Bb]
[Gm]
stars in the night sky
[Ebm]
[Bb]
[G] They don't mean to be lonely
No, no, [Gm] I'm not gonna fight
They don't mean to be lonely
[Em] [Eb] I don't know [Gm] if you know why
[Bb] [Gb]
[Bb] They don't mean to be lonely
[Gm]
I'm just trying to put you down
I'm just trying to put you down
I'm just trying to put you down
I'm just trying to put you down
I'm just [Gb] trying to put you down
I'm
[Eb] [Bb] just trying to put you down
I'm just trying to put you down
I'm just trying to [G] put you down
I'm just trying [Gm]
[G]
[C] [D]
[Bb] to put you down
I'm just trying to put you [D]
down
I'm just trying to put you down
[N] They come up with a new one every day.
How'd you get the idea of riding on that base setter?
I was the only one who could fit in a saddle.
Well, you fit all right, and you stayed on.
