Intro:

C B A G F E G

C	           B

If I could walk a straight mile

A			  G

I could write it down in shorthand

	F  	E

I could show you

G

If you want me to



C		B

And if I had an hourglass

A			  G

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

F	  E

And that's what I'd do

G

But I remember



F	   E		    G

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



F	   E	   	    G

You always said it could be great

But I hadn't time to waste

F	   E   	 	    D

Now it seems that I've gone too far



C		G

As bright as you are

A#	   	     F

Don't get burned by your lucky star

C		G

Bright as you are

A#		     F

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



Turn you around

Turn you around

Turn you around

Turn you around

F	     G 		C

They're gonna turn you around
