[Intro]
G D Cadd9 x4


[Verse 1]
G                               D
  He said 'I wanna shine in the eye of Orion
      Em7          Cadd9
But I drove my soul through the Black Hole!'
G                  D                     Cadd9
  She said 'What a wonderful way to wake me
             G              D          Em7
She said You weren't so nice last night
               Cadd9
You're such an asshole when you're drunk'
G                   D             Cadd9
  He said 'At least I'm OK in the mornings'

G D Cadd9 x2

[Verse 2]
             G                     D
He said 'The three wise men came a long way
Em7                  Cadd9
  Following that pin hole in the sky
G      D                   Cadd9
  Yeah that one right there'
            G                    D
She said 'I don't believe in any old Jesus
         Em7             Cadd9
If there was a God, then why is my arse
G     D                  Cadd9
  The perfect height for kicking?'

[Chorus]
       D                    C
He said 'I'll shine for you,
D                        C     G
  And then I'll burn for you
   D               C
Yea I'll shine for you,
                   D
that's what I'll do'

G D Cadd9 x2

[Verse 3]
         G                      D                         Em7
He said 'They're like headlights  In the rear view mirror
        Cadd9
They're closer that they seem
G               D                  Cadd9
  And from this gutter we're still staring at the stars'
                   G
She said 'Would ya go away and shite
D          Em7             Cadd9
Last night all you did was curse those stars
G               D                  Cadd9
  You said they sang to you of hope'

[Bridge]
             Am              C        G             D
He said 'The sun gives life,   and it takes it away
    Am                  C        G                D
But like all the greats,   it'll burn out someday'
          Am           C         G                D
She said 'I don't mind,  I don't want to get bored
  Am                  C     G           D
I don't want to end up  beached on this shore
G                 Am    C   G   D
I want to be that star'
                  Am    C   G   D
Oh let me be that star.
