An asterisk means add third fret on the high e string with your little finger. For example, C* would be X32013 rather than X32010. Basically it's making the chord and AddG chord. VERSE 1: Am* Close the door and take the stairs. C* Em Up or down' Upside down, Em* Well don't pretend you've never been there. Am* C* You kiss me like an overdramatic actor Em* who's starving for work, Em* with one last shot to make it happen. Am* You've won the role, you've played your part, C* you've been cordially invited. Em Em* But I'm not impressed, and I'm definitely not excited, Am* because the film runs a shallow budget,

and the ^Cwriter's subject script isn't any Em Em* deeper. So dive right in...
