VERSE PATTERN: A Bm G G
^ That's all you really need to play the verse pattern, but if you want to get
all fancy and play some of the chord transitions that the piano does in the
original recording, then take a look at the bottom of the tab. I've added a
tab chart with some extra moving notes that you can play if you're up for it.
VERSE 1:
A Bm G
How to tell a friend that you've fallen in love
A Bm G
watching her sing on the bow of a boat
A Bm G
How to move the muscles to open your mouth
A Bm G
To admit to what she's been afraid of
CHORUS 1:
Bm A G
I'm sorry, I know I'm only ordinary
D A G A D Dsus4-D-Dsus2-D
I'm not a star
VERSE 2:
A Bm G
Can they tell when the body says a sound
A Bm G
When I'm lying, am I shaking
A Bm G
Right beside a prophet who made up his mind
A Bm G
To keep quiet to stay silent
CHORUS 2:
Bm A G
I'm sorry, I know I'm only ordinary,
D A
I'm not a star
Bm A G
I apologize, I know this is an unpleasant surprise
D A G A D
You need a star
OUTRO:
G A D
And to love, not to be loved, is the key
G A D
And to see, not to be seen, that is me
G A D
And to move, not to be moved, is to be free
G A D
And to love, not to be loved, is the key
