Intro: Bsus - F#sus - Abm7 - E - E - F#sus - E - F#sus 

Verse 1:

C#sus Ebsus Esus F#sus
We keep our love in a plain brown box, We keep it tied with a simple lock
C#sus Ebsus Esus F#sus
We hold it close because it's all we got, We think it's ordinary but it's not
C#sus Ebsus Esus F#sus
In a world that starting to fade, A little love could pave the way
[C#sus] Don't keep it tied with a [Ebsus]simple lock,[Esus] You think it's ordinary [F#sus]but it's not

Chorus:

[Bsus] And maybe this [F#sus] life is
[Abm7] Just about [E]love and tenderness if
[E] All we [F#sus]are, are [E]shooting s[F#sus]tars
[Bsus] And maybe we [F#sus] we can't fight
[Abm7] All of this [E]pain and loneliness if
[E] All we [F#sus]are, are [E] shooting [F#sus]stars

Verse 2:

C#sus Ebsus Esus F#sus
Tired of hearin' 'bout the bling bling, We're so concerned with material things
C#sus Ebsus Esus F#sus
It's all cars and diamond rings, And do you think it's gonna ease your sting
C#sus Ebsus Esus F#sus
'Cause that's a hole that you can't fill, Velvet rope overkill
[C#sus] Free your mind let your [Ebsus]heart sing,[Esus] And just remember that they're [F#sus]only things

Repeat Chorus

Bridge:

[Abm7] I used to l[F#sus]ive by the minute
[E] I was too blind to s[F#sus]ee
[Abm7] Now I found the st[F#sus]rength to admit it
Now it's [E]all I believe, [F#sus]please please

Solo: (play chorus chords 1x)

Repeat Chorus

Outro:

[Bsus] [F#sus] [Abm7] [E] Shooting s[Bsus]tars[F#sus][Abm7]
[E]Yeah we're shooting s[Bsus]tars[F#sus][Abm7]
[E] We're shooting s[Bsus]tars[F#sus][Abm7]
