Rising Star G# C# G# Baby, this letter might be hard to read Bb7 D# But I�ve got a strong need to get it all down G# C# G# It�s noon and I�m lyin� on the bunk in the back of the bus Bb7 D# I got thinkin� about us while I�m bouncing around C# Cm Fm The rising star just ridin� along with the rest of the guys Bb7 D# Smoking and gettin� high like he does each trip C# Cm Fm �Bout two o�clock he�ll say I think I�ll sip some crow Bb7 D# By the time of the show the rising star will be ripped G# C# G# Later on when the job is done we�re back on the bus Bb7 D# He�ll turn to the guys and smile in a funny way C# G# And say tell me once again how good I played C# G# C# G# And they call him the rising star and they say he�s gonna go far F# D#7 But each night he gets far (?) he ever believed G# C# G# Something inside me grieves cause sure as hell one day C# G# They say the rising star will fade away Last night the rising star got lost with a girl for an hour or so Barely made the shoe, kinda stumbled on Forgot the words to the song he wrote about his wife Said guess that�s life but I was wrong Cause every night when I go on I�m the rising star Me and my guitar start to get it on Living is when they stand and cheering and call my name But I�ll try to change before too long Something about the here and now said drop a line To say I�m fine but I�d like to say not every rising star fades away And they call me the rising star, baby I�m gonna go far With you beside me I swear by the pen in my hand I�ll be damned if you ever gone to see the day That drunken, stoned and all alone, You�ll see this rising star fade away by: Jos� Duarte jtduarte1@gmail.com
