C               G         E
I'm thinking what I'm doing
                       Am
I'm thinking what I've done
    C              G         E
I'm thinking 'bout my mother
                      Am
Who never thought I'd come
      C           G
Quite this far from nowhere
E                 Am
To hear myself be sung
            C       G
But I still haven't forgotten
          E              Am
I used to do it just for fun

[Chorus]
    Am            G
When all the ones around me
                     C
Would wonder if they saw
Fmaj7       G
Or heard me singing somewhere
E         Am
Tuning my guitar

[Verse 2]
      C           G            E
Knock once, I got ten minutes
                      Am
And every night's the same
            C         G          E
Sometimes I wish I wasn't in it
                         Am
When I hear them call my name
            C   G
Same people all around me
      E               Am
And I wonder who they are
       C              G
I know they're not my family
            E                 Am
And they're not my friends by far

[Chorus]
       Am            G
They're all the ones around me
                  C
I wonder who they are
Fmaj7       G
They hide behind my curtain
         E              Am
And they hope I'll be a star

[Verse 3]
         C         G
An' they say, "Get out and sell them"
    E                Am
But selling's not my aim
          C                 G
I'm gonna sing the life I'm living
    E               Am
And try to ease the pain

[Chorus]
   Am      G
Of all the ones around me
                  C
No matter who you are
    Fmaj7             G
You hide and you look uncertain
        E                     Am
But you hope - hope I'll be a star

    Am             G
And all the ones, all around me
E       Am
I don't care who you are
              G                       E
Tonight you're gonna hold the curtain
    Am              G E Am  G E Am E
I'm tuning my guitar...

[Bridge]
N.C.  Am
All the ones...
G                  E
All the ones around me

[Chorus]
Am
Who do you think that you are
                     G           E
Tonight you're gonna hold the curtain
    Am
I'm tuning my guitar

G            E
All the ones around me
Am
I don't care who you are
               G                     E
Tonight you're gonna hold the curtain
    Am             G E Am  G E Am
I'm tuning my guitar...
