Starlight And Static by Jeffrey Foucault


    Starlight And Static 



Capo:3rd fret
Standard Tuning
 
Asus2 Fmaj7 (x2)
 
Asus2
I saw you up there 
F7
Like a city in the footlights 
Asus2
Shining in the darkness 
F7
I couldn’t see your eyes 
G
They all thought they knew you 
F7
But nobody knew you 
G                       F7
And I wanted no one to know me too 
 
Asus2 Fmaj7 (x2)
 
I saw you out there
In the starlight and static
Singing like a spark
On a mile of coiled wire
But you looked so lonely
Like no one was ever lonely
And I wanted to be lonely too
 
E
I remember once you told me 
Am
You had a dream 
E
On a crowded street 
Am
You saw the ghost of James Dean 
C
No one could see him 
G
No one could see him 
F7
And he cri . . . . .ed in his love 
 
I remember you were standing
Up against a building
Smoking like a river
In the dark before the dawn
When I asked you for nothing
And you became nothing
You were just a ghost
And then the ghost was gone
