Stars-Set Yourself on Fire
The Calendar Girl
Very simple yet, easy listening song.
Dedicated to Jenn because she loves this song!
Basic chords for the entire song are:
For the chords it's best you play the six string chords.
I also suggest you play the Cmaj on the 8th fret rather than the open, to get the high notes
Fmaj 133211
Gmaj 355433
Cmaj 8 10 10 9 8 8
Verse 1
F G C
If I am lost for a day, try to find me
F G C
but if I don't come back, then I won't look behind me.
F G C
All of the things that I thought were so easy,
F G C
just got harder and harder each day.
F G C
December is darkest, in June there's the light,
F G C
but this empty bedroom won't make anything right.
F G C
Well out on the landing a friend I forgot to send home
F G C
who waits up for me all through the night.
Chorus
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/stars/the_calendar_girl_crd.html ]
(Strum from bottom string up for the next part)
F G C (C)
calendar girl who's in love with the world, stay alive
F G C (C)
calendar girl who's in love with the world, stay alive
Verse 2 (same as verse 1)
I dreamed I was dying as I so often do,
and when I awoke, I was sure it was true.
I went to the window, threw my head to the sky
and said; whoever is up there, please don't let me die.
Well I can't live forever, I can't always be
One day I'll be sad (?) on a beach by the sea
The pages keep turning, I mark each day with a cross
And I'll laugh about all that we've lost.
Chorus 2 (same as previous)
calendar girl who's is lost to the world, stay alive
calendar girl who's is lost to the world, stay alive
