An asterisk means add third fret on the high e string with your little 

finger.  For example, C* would be X32013 rather than X32010.  Basically it's 

making the chord and AddG chord.
VERSE 1:
Am*
Close the door and take the stairs.
C*                 Em 
Up or down? Upside down,
              Em*
Well don't pretend you've never been there.
Am*                              C* 
You kiss me like an overdramatic actor
                   Em*
who's starving for work,
              Em*
with one last shot to make it happen.
Am*
You've won the role, you've played your part,
            C*
you've been cordially invited.
        Em                     Em*
But I'm not impressed, and I'm definitely not excited,
            Am*
because the film runs a shallow budget,
        C
and the writer's subject script isn't any
Em         Em*
deeper. So dive right in...

she was something special,
