[Verse 1]
Dm
It'€™s getting cold, I'€™m underdressed

Dm
I'€™m still not sold on this whole mess

C
You told me '€“ give it all away

C
Just trust, it will come back someday

Bb                           G
I gave my voice, I gave my time

                                Dm Dm C C Bb
Was there a choice, and was it mine?

                           G
I leant out every stitch I had

                            Bb
I gave you everything you asked

                               G
Now nothing left except this faith

                           A
This old idea it'€™s gonna rain
[Chorus]
                        Dm   F
Do you think that the stars

                C                  G

Everybody'€™s naked in the woods

      Bb           C          G
And everybody'€™s trying to be good

  Bb               A               G
You say you have nothing left to lose

        Bb                   F             Dm
But I know that'€™s just the story that you use

                                                      Em
What you'€™ve got, you'€™ve got to give it to your mother

                                                      F

What you'€™ve got, you'€™ve got to give now hand it over

                                                       Em
What you'€™ve got, you'€™ve got to give it to your mother

What you'€™ve got, you'€™ve got to give it to your father

                                                    G
What you'€™ve got, you'€™ve got to give to your sister

                                                      Dm
What you'€™ve got, you'€™ve got to give now hand it over
[Verse 2]

It'€™s getting dark, I'€™m lost and scared I can'€™t find shelter anywhere
You told me '€” give it all away
                                Bb
Just trust, it will come back someday

                        G
I gave my body and my voice

                            Dm Dm C C Bb
But do you think I had a choice?

                              G
You know what, baby, I'€™m in hell

                             Bb
Nothing but stories that I tell

                                 G
Myself '€“ I'€™ve got to keep the faith

                              A
This sad old lie it'€™s gonna rain
[Chorus]
                        Dm   F

[Bridge]
                 Bb                              C
When there are billions and billions of us all looking for love

       Dm                               C
With billions of eyes all fixed on something above

              Bb                           C
And we'€™re all waiting for the pyro at the end of the show

          G                                  A        Bb
But the lights we'€™re staring up at died out centuries ago
[Chorus]
                        Dm   F
Do you think that the stars

                C                  G
Are going to spend their light on you?

                           Dm    F
you really think that the stars

         C                  G
Give a shit what you might do?

                         Dm   F
Do you think that the stars

               C                   G
Are going to spend the night with you?

                           Dm    F
You really think that the stars

         C                  G
Give a shit what you'€™ve been through?
