  You make the scene...
  Going upstream... etc


Verse 1:
C5            C#o            D5     E5
You make the scene like you always do
C5       C#o              D5  E5
Going upstream , down the avenue
C5            C#o                    D5                 E5
To fuck some trophy boy that you'll win tonight at the bar
C5   E5     A5
So  bad,  so far
            F5        C5
You make me sad shooting star



Verse 2:
When it was me I was momentarily proud
Full of dreams now I'm glad I didn't say out loud
Hoping you'd be for real when I don't believe that you are
So bad, so far



Middle 8:
D5              G5          C5       /B5  A5
I'm distant and cold and a sight to behold
A5   G5    F5
Everybody Sighs
D5          G5       C5   /B5   A5
No one gets on with you very long
A5                 G5            D5  F5
Cos you don't feel bad when you lie



Verse 3:
I'm going to sleep now which I would guess would be step one
Step two is where I can deal with the things you've done
It won't be soon but at least it'll be hard
So bad, so far
You make me sad, shooting star
