Release the Stars by Rufus Wainwright
!!Capo on First Fret!!
[G]Why do you [Am7]keep all your s[G]tars in
From your s[Am7]tudio on [Cm]Melrose Ave[G]nue?
You have l[Am7]ocked all your [G]assets up
In [Am7]lifelong [Cm]contracts to y[G]ou.
Didn't you k[A7]now that o[G]ld H[B7]ollywood is o[Em]ver?[B7]
[G]Oh, can't you [Am7]see all the [G]good that
Cel[Am7]ebrity can [Cm]do for those in the d[G]ark?
Yes of [Am7]course, I am s[G]peaking in
Meta[Am7]phor for something [Cm]more in your he[G]art.
Didn't you k[A7]now that [G]old H[B7]ollywood is [Em]over?[B7]
So why not just r[G]elease the gates and let them [C]all come out?
Remember that with[G]out them there would be no [C]Paramount
No paramount [Em]need to h[Em(maj7)]o-o-old [Em7]on to what [A7]isn't yours[Cm]
Release the [G]stars[Cm] [G] [Am7]
The [G]more that you f[C]ight, then the m[G]ore they will
S[C]crutinize and [Cm]realize just your [G]size.
And [C]believe me, you are [G]no match
For the [C]public that has [Cm]seen the whites of your e[G]yes
Didn't you [A7]know that o[G]ld H[B7]ollywood is [Em]over?[B7]
[F]Old [B7]Hollywood is [Em]over[B7]
So why not just [G]release the gates and let them [Am7]all come out?
Remember that with[G]out them there would be no [Bm]Paramount
No paramount [Em]need to h[Em(maj7)]o-o-o-ld [Em7]on to what [A7]isn't yours[Cm]
Release the [G]stars[Cm]
Release the s[Em]tars[Em(maj7)]...
Release your [Em]love[Em(maj7)]...
Release the s[Em]tars[Em(maj7)]....
Release your [Em]love[Em(maj7)],
'Cause Hollyw[Em(maj7)]ood is ov[Em]er
Why do you k[Cm]eep all your s[G]tars in
From your s[Am7]tudio on Melrose Aven[Em9]ue?
