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...
