verse
Dbm Gbm/Db
I remember the time so well
B5 E/B
looking back you could never tell
A Dbm B5 A
what you meant when you said to me
A Gbm/Db B5 B (just hammer on that last chord then pull off back to b5)
this is how it was going to be
Dbm Gbm/Db
in your apartment up in the back
B5 E/B
i was peaking through a window crack
A Dbm B5 A
looking out at a straight fall back
A Gbm/Db B5 B
you looked over at me and said
chorus
E/B A
tonight im going to be like a shooting star
E/B A
you would not believe i would go this far
Dbm B5 A
but i know what that means
Dbm B5 A
i know what that means
*post chorus interlude
Dbm for A measure
verse
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/h/hurricane_bells/tonight_im_going_to_be_like_a_shooting_star_crd.html ]
Dbm Gbm/Db
out of anger or out of spite
B5 E/B
clinging on to me every night
A Dbm B5 A
with your face in your hands you were
A Gbm/Db B5 B
like a flame with nothing to burn
Dbm Gbm/Db
every time i would turn away
B5 E/B
every time i would go astray
A Dbm B5 A
every time try to get off. the hook
A Gbm/Db B5 B
you would give me that same old look
chorus
EE/B A
tonight im going to be like a shooting star
E/B A
you would not believe i would go this far
Dbm B5 A
but i know what that means
Dbm B5 A
i know what that means
*solo goes here ( isn't really much of one on the cd, but live he goes crazy with the whammy
and super distorted fuzz* then clicks back to clean for the next verse. HAVE FUN WITH IT !!!
final verse
Dbm Gbm/Db
there are things now that i have lost
B5 E/B
i have payed up for every cost
A Dbm B5 A
i admit that i had to go
Gbm/Db B5 B
now its over you see and so
*final chorus
lyrics change slightly
E/B A
tonight im going to be like a shooting star
E/B A
you would not believe i would go this far
Dbm B5 A
you know what that means
Dbm B5 A
you know what that means
