Tuning: Standard /or with capo 2
This is my first tab so don't be too harsh, but positive criticism is welcome
The chords used without the capo are Bm and G for the verses and progression of F#maj,
D, for the chorus.
It sounds better using barre chords in my opinion but it's your preference.
With Capo 2, the verse is played Am and F, followed by Em, F and Am7 for the chorus
Substitute the chords in for what way you would like to play

lonely supertramps or superstars.
Charlie's a changeling, a changeling that's aging but no-one tells Charlie why,
Jackie Yonases she knows where your ass is she's so introverted and shy
But back to the Prozac, Penelope knows that the world is a passer by,
so caning discreetly she'll tell you so sweetly
she's dressed up with nowhere to cry.
Oooohoo well I just don't know who we are,
lonely supertramps or superstars.
oohoo, well I just don't know who we are,
paint your face you lovely superstars.
Oohooo, cause we just don't know what we are,
lonely supertramps or superstars.
Oohooo, well you just don't know what you are,
Here's to supertramps and superstars.
