The Screen by Ruby Bond
The Screen
there is an unusual chord in the chorus that I don't know the name of but
it is played like this
G---4
C---3
E---2
A---0
and I'm going to call it C#maj because that is the closest one i know.
G
let me tell you a story
Gsus4
bout a girl named annie
Em D
she's very lucky, you know
G
she's got the job of her dreams
Gsus4
and a wonderful team
Em D
on an award winning show
G
with friends all around her
Gsus4
surely, nothing can stop her
Em D
she's making her parents proud
G
the fans are dedicated
Gsus4
and she's all but underrated
Em D
but there's one thing that is holding her down
Em
when cameras go on
C#maj
and lights are in her face
Em
he gently pulls her into
G D
a tender warm embrace
Em
but the loving eyes he shows her
C#maj
are only for the screen
Em G
it's hard to know his love has no true
D
mea-ning
Em G
he pretends he's in love oh
Em G
and she's really in love oh
Em G
they pretend they're in love oh
D
on the scene
G C G Am G
for the screen
G
in Annie's little story
Gsus4
is a man called harry
Em D
and he's with the love of his life
G
because floras pretty
Gsus4
and she loves him dearly
Em D
and he plans to make her his wife
G
and then when he's filming
Gsus4
for the screen with Annie
Em D
he sees a tear in her eye
G
she reads the script to him
Gsus4
but when she looks at him
Em D
somehow the words come to life
chorus
Em G
it's all just a show
D G
where everything's put on
Em G
that look he gives her
D G
was meant for another one
Em G
he may never know this
D G
but the lines she reads are true
Em G
hiding behind her character
D G
she pretends he loves her too
Em G
hiding behind her character
D (1 strum)
she pretends she loves her
G
tooooooooo
Em
ooooooooo
G D (4 strums building up, last muted)
ooooooooo
