[Verse]
C        G/B        Am   D
 Tonya Harding, my star
           F            C
Well this world is a cold one
        G               D
But it takes one to know one
     F         C             G
And God only knows what you are

C            G/B             Am 
 Just some Portland white trash
      D

         F            C
You confronted your sorrow
            G         D
Like there was no tomorrow
           F               C   
While the rest of the world only 
      G
laughed

C      G/B        Am  D
 Triple axel on high
     F           C
A delightful disaster
            G            D
You jumped farther and faster
         F            C          G
You were always so full of surprises

C         G/B        Am  D
 Are your laces untied?
             F              C
What’s the frown on your face for?
          G                 D
And just what are the skates for 
now?
F         C             G
 Tell me which is your good side?

C        G/B          Am   D
 Are you lonely at night?
        F              C
Do you miss all the glory
         G          D
And the mythical story
F          C      G
Of the Olympian life?

[Verse]
C     G/B       Am  D
 Yamaguchi in red
         F              C
She had high rise and roses
     G           D
And red-carpet poses
F         C             G
 And her outfit was splendid

C       G/B          Am   D
 Nancy Kerrigan’s charm
           F            C
Well she took quite a beating
           G            D
So you’re not above cheating
F         C             G
 Can you blame her for crying?

C      G/B             Am      D
Tonya, you were the brightest
           F            C
Yeah you rose from the ashes
        G               D
And survived all the crashes
F              C             G
Wiping the blood from your white 
tights

C         G/B            Am  D
 Has the world had its fun?
               F           C
Yeah they’ll make such a hassle
              G            D
And they’ll build you a castle
F          C                    G
 Then destroy it when they’re done

C        G/B        Am       D
 Tonya Harding, my friend
           F            C
Well this world is a bitch, girl
          G           D
Don’t end up in a ditch, girl
          F              C      
I’ll be watching you close to the 
   G
end

C        G/B        Am       D
 So fight on as you are
     F         C
My American princess
         G               D
May God bless you with incense
            F       C        G
You’re my shining American star

           F/A      C        Am   D
You’re my shining American star
           F        G       C
You’re my shining American star
