Rocky Took A Lover

Intro

G C x4

G
He said 'I wanna shine in the eye of Orion
C
But I drove my soul through the Black Hole!'
G                                  C
She said 'What a wonderful way to wake me
G
You weren't so nice last night
C
You're such an asshole when you're drunk'
G                                  C
He said 'At least I'm OK in the mornings'

INTRO

G
He said 'The three wise men came a long way
C
Following that pin hole in the sky
G                     C
Yeah that one right there'
G
She said 'I don't believe in any old Jesus
C
If there was a God, then why is my arse
G                     C
The perfect height of kicking?'

Chorus
D                      C

D              C
I'll burn for you

Yea I'll shine for you,
D              C
that's what I'll do'

INTRO

G
He said 'They're like headlights In the rear view mirror
C
They're closer that they seem
G                                        C
And from this gutter we're still staring at the stars'
G
She said 'Would ya go away and shite
C
Last night all you did was curse those stars
G                          C
You said they sang to you of hope'

BRIDGE

A                                     C
He said 'The sun gives life, and it takes it away
G                               D
But like all the greats, it'll burn out someday'
A                                     C
She said 'I don't mind, I don't want to get bored
A                                 C
I don't want to end up beached on this shore
G                 D
I want to be that star'

Chorus TIL END
