Melanie Safka - Chords of fame

I ^Dfound him by the stage last night He was ^Cbreathing his last ^Gbreath A ^Dbottle of gin and a cigarette Was ^Call he had ^Gleft

'Cause you ^Ccarry your gui^Dtar But ^Ggod help the troubadour Who ^Emtries to be a star

Come on and ^Gplay the ^Dchords of ^Glove my friend Play the ^Dchords of ^Gfame But if you wanna ^Ckeep your ^Gsong, no no ^Dno Don't ^Emplay the chords of fame, oh no ^Gno

You know I've ^Dseen my share of hustlers As they ^Ctry to take the ^Gworld And ^Dwhen they find their melody They're ^Csurrounded by the ^Ggirls

Like a ^Csunny summer ^Dday Re^Gporters ask you questions And they ^Emwrite down what you say

So, come on and ^Gplay the ^Dchords of ^Glove my friend Play the ^Dchords of ^Gfame But if you wanna ^Ckeep your ^Gsong, no no ^Dno Don't ^Emplay the chords of fame, no no ^Gno

They'll ^Drob you of your innocence They'll ^Cput you up for ^Gsale The ^Dmore that you will find success The ^Cmore that you will ^Gfail

And I ^Creally can't com^Dplain But I ^Gwonder who I left behind On the ^Emother side of fame

Oh, come on and ^Gplay the ^Dchords of ^Glove my friend Play the ^Dchords of ^Gfame But if you wanna ^Ckeep your ^Gsong, no no ^Dno Don't ^Emplay the chords of fame, no no ^Gno ^{D C G D}
