Chords Of Fame by Melanie Safka
Chords Of Fame
Capo: 4th fret
INTRO: G D C G D C G
D
I found him by the stage last night
C G
He was breathing his last breath
D
A bottle of gin and a cigarette
C G
Was all he had left
Well, I know that you make music
C D
''Cause you carry your guitar
G
But god help the troubadour
Em
Who tries to be a star
CHORUS:
G D G
Come on and play the chords of love my friend
D G
Play the chords of fame
C G D
But if you wanna keep your song, no no no
Em G
Don''t play the chords of fame, oh no no
D
You know I''ve seen my share of hustlers
C G
As they try to take the world
D
And when they find their melody
C G
They''re surrounded by the girls
But it all fades so quickly
C D
Like a sunny summer day
G
Reporters ask you questions
Em
And they write down what you say
CHORUS:
G D G
So, come on and play the chords of love my friend
D G
Play the chords of fame
C G D
But if you wanna keep your song, no no no
Em G
Don''t play the chords of fame, no no no
D
They''ll rob you of your innocence
C G
They''ll put you up for sale
D
The more that you will find success
C G
The more that you will fail
I''d been around, I had my share
C D
And I really can''t complain
G
But I wonder who I left behind
Em
On the other side of fame
CHORUS:
G D G
Oh, come on and play the chords of love my friend
D G
Play the chords of fame
C G D
But if you wanna keep your song, no no no
Em G D C G D
Don''t play the chords of fame, no no no
