Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

If I could walk a straight mile

I could write it down in shorthand

 I could show you

If you want me to

And if I had an hourglass

I'd save the grains of time I spent with you

And that's what I'd do

But I remember

You always said it could be great

And I knew it could be

Well there's a way you look at things

That no one needs to know but you

And you shout em with me

Like every time the leaves would fall

You'd promise me that they'd be back again

And I believed in you

You always said it could be great

But I hadn't time to waste

Now it seems that I've gone too far

As bright as you are

Don't get burned by your lucky star

Bright as you are

Don't get burned by your lucky star

Written down in hard-bound books

The way things used to be (?)

I'd swear they're all for you

(?)

Mama said shit I don't know what you'll do

As if it's up to you

You always said it could be great

But I hadn't time to waste

Now it seems that I've gone too far

(The rest till the end is C-G-A#-F)

As bright as you are

Don't get burned by your lucky star

Bright as you are

Don't get burned by your lucky star

Your lucky star will burn out

Your lucky star can turn you around

Your lucky star will burn out

Your lucky star can turn you around
