(Chorus)
E7sus4 A7 E7sus4 A7
I’m looking up at the stars tonight
E7sus4 A7 E7sus4 A7
And the stars are looking down on me,
Cmaj7 A7
But the stars do not care
Cmaj7 A7
That I am standing there,
Cmaj7 D6 E7sus4 A7 (x2)
‘Cause the stars do not care about me.
E7sus4 A7
The stars are bright
Cmaj7 A7
On this cold and moonless night.
Cmaj7 D6 E7sus4 A7
The stars have promises to keep.
G/D Cadd9
But the stars tell us lies
G/D Cadd9
About distant foreign skies
A7sus4 D6 E7sus4 A7 (x2)
And the stars won’t allow me to sleep.
The stars are cold
As they shine into your soul.
Every pinpoint leaves a mark.
The galaxy turns
And new fires start to burn
And new stars will rise in the dark.
(Chorus)
The stars are so far
And light years are the bar
That keep us locked up in the mud.
We still long to climb,
Wrapped up in human time
And the melody flows through our blood.
The stars will live,
But none will ever give
The light from the sun that we see.
Echoes of that light
Shine down on us at night.
Are there eyes out there looking for me?
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
G/D Cadd9
The stars do not call.
G/D Cadd9
They do not care at all.
A7sus4 D6 E7sus4 A7
The stars orbit deaf, dumb, and blind.
G/D Cadd9
But somewhere there may be,
G/D Cadd9
Past places I can see,
A7sus4 D6 E7sus4 A7 (x2)
Someone staring outward with a mind.
(Chorus twice)
Cmaj7 D6 E7sus4 A7
‘Cause the stars do not care about me.
Cmaj7 D6 E7sus4
‘Cause the stars do not care about me.
