Misc Television – Smash - Let Me Be Your Star (Guitar)

     F#
Fade in on a girl

        D#m
With a hunger for fame

       B          Bm          F#  A#m
And a face and a name to remember.

    D#m
The past fades away

        B
Because as of this day

              E
Norma Jean's gone,

             Bm/C   
She's moving on.

     F#
Her smile and your fantasies

A#dim
Play a duet

           B          
That will make you forget

           E  B
Where you are.

     F#           A#m
The music starts playing

         D#m
It's the beat of her heart saying,

E       B         F#  Bm/C  F#  Bm/C
"Let me be your star."

       F#
Flash back to a girl

       D#m
With a song in her heart

          B          Bm          F#     A#m
As she's waiting to start the adventure.

     D#m
The fire and drive

            B
That make dreams come alive,

               E
They fill her soul.

            Bm/C
She's in control.

     F#
The drama, the laughter,

    A#dim
The tears just like pearls.

               B                       E    B
Well, they're all in this girl's repertoire.

      F#          A#m
It's all for the taking,

          D#m
And it's magic we'll be making.

E      B        F#  Bm/C  F#
Let me be your star.

                     A#
I'll just have to forget the hurt that came before,

   F#M
Forget what used to be.

     B              G#m
The past is on the cutting room floor,

     B        C7        C#
The future is here with me.

       D7
Choose me!

     G
Fade up on a star

        Em
With it all in her sights:

         C            Cm
All the love and the lights

         G        Bm
That surround her.

    Em
Someday she'll think twice

        C
Of the dues and the price

                F
She'll have to pay

         Cm/Db
But not today

            G
Then she'll do all she can

        Bdim
For the love of one man

         C                       F C
And for millions who look from afar.

     G                Bm
And what you've been needing

        Em
Is all here and my heart's pleading.

F      C        G   Cm/Db  G  Cm/Db  G  Cm/Db  G
Let me be your star!
