Starlight Chords & Lyrics by Marina and The Diamonds
Starlight
guitar chords lyrics
D Bb
You, oh you
F cm Eb
Had a sad urge to be wanted by fools
Bb
Welcoming those that would be
F cm
Snoopin' troupin' enveloping your family jewels
Bb F#
You chose to grow your nose
Eb D Gm G
Cause deep down you knew, I knew, you knew, I knew
cm Bb cm D
That I'd have been wrong quicker than you could come
Gm Eb
Said I was too good for you
Bb
Wake up little Susie
D Eb Bb Eb
It's bad news when you hear a guy cry
Bb
You spilt the beans in jail
D Eb Bb
Timed it perfectly after your granny died (tut tut tut)
cm Gm F Eb
You knew I wouldn't shoot a man when he was down
Bb D Gm
Well done Pinocchio you told a lie
cm F D D/F#
I wouldn't take advantage of a cut-up heart
Gm Eb Gm
Such a vulnerable time, you tell me
cm Gm
I'm so lonely
D Gm
Won't you hold me
cm Gm
Stars shine only
C Gm
Up it's only light
Gm Bb F Gm C Gm
Old light, it's been dead for a long time
Bb F Gm
Long time
Eb F
With time, time
bm G D
Stars of love look bright
bm G bm/D
Till they're ready to die
D em G
The broken spend their lives
D em Bb F# F A dm
Staring at the sky
D Bb
Now it's time
F
Bury the hatchet
cm Eb
And bury it deep
Bb
You've a massive heart
D Eb
But you're fucked up, kid
Bb
And we sow what we reap
cm Gm F Eb
Woah, cause we grew up as solitary souls
Bb D Gm
Sometimes it's better to be on your own
cm Bb cm D
I need time just to roam, roam, roam
Gm F
Find a place I can call home
Gm cm
Love is like starlight
Gm D Gm
Even when a star dies
cm Gm
You can still see it shine
C Gm
But it's only old light
Bb F Gm C Gm
Old light, it's been dead for a long time
B
Time
Eb F
With time, time
(same chords)
Stars of love burn bright
Till they're ready to die
The broken spend their lives
Staring at the sky
Oh, it is just old light
Completing its last flight
Across the velvet nights
E
Burn bright till they die
The love lights in the sky
Love is like starlight
Love is starlight
