The Method Actor

C                            
I am a star in a scene full of 
  G
actors
C                               
With method, ability, bona fide 
D7
clout
G                         C  
And I nailed all my cues, and I 
                    G
looked ten years younger
                             D7    
But my famous last scene was edited

 out


G                C                
When I was a boy I ran through the 
 G
wilderness
                   D7             
Dodging the photos and wooing the 
G
crowd
                  C                
I'd carry a rifle and save drownin'
 G
 puppies
                  D7               
And ride off with some lovely lady 
  G
I found

G                    C           
I stepped into frame at the edge 
     G
of a river

                     D7        
A thousand feet deep and a mile 
 G
across
                 C                 
I gave all I had and finally made 
  G
it over
                           D7 
Found out when I got there the 
              G
cameras were off

G          D7                    
Take these bright white lights 
        G
out of my vision
         D7                        
Tell the onlookers "put your 
  Em     Am
cameras away"
C                              D7
No heavy gold trophies will be given
C                                 
And there is no script for what I 
        D7
want to say



G                   C           
Now I am an old man longing for 
G
peace
                     D7          
A place to sit quiet where no one 
     G
can tell
                 C             G
That I ever read one line on a stage
                  D7        G
And the only role I play is myself
