Starring Role Chords & Tabs
CAPO 4
Am Fmaj7 Dm G
Verse 1:
Am
You're hard to hug
Fmaj7
Tough to talk to
Dm G
And I never fall asleep
Am Fmaj7
When you're in my bed
Dm G
All you give me is a heartbeat
I've turned into a statue
And it makes me feel depressed
'Cause the only time you open up
Is when we get undressed
Pre-Chorus:
Am
You don't love me
Dm
Big fucking deal
G Fmaj7
I'll never tell you how I feel
You don't love me
Not a big deal
I'll never tell you how I feel
Chorus:
Am G
It almost feels like a joke
Dm Fmaj7
To play out the part
Am G
When you are not the starring role
Dm Fmaj7
In someone else's heart
Dm C
You know I'd rather walk alone
G Am
Than play a supporting role
Fmaj7 G Am
If I can't get the starring role
Fill:
Am Fmaj7 Dm G
Verse 2:
Am Fmaj7
Sometimes I ignore you
Dm G
So I feel in control
Am Fmaj7
'Cause really, I adore you
Dm G
And I can't leave you alone
Fed up with the fantasies
They cover what is wrong
Come on, baby
Let's just get drunk
Forget we don't get on
Pre-Chorus:
