Bm F#m There are stars in every city, G A In every house and on every street, D7 G And if you walk down Hollywood Boulevard A D Their names are written in concrete! D A G D Don t step on Greta Garbo as you walk down the boulevard, F#m Bm G A She looks so weak and fragile that s why she tried to be so hard Bm F#m But they turned her into a princess G A And they sat her on a throne, D7 G But she turned her back on stardom, A D Because she wanted to be alone. C G D You can see all the stars as you walk down Hollywood Boulevard, C G D Some that you recognize, some that you ve hardly even heard of, C G D People who worked and suffered and struggled for fame, C G D Some who succeeded and some who suffered in vain. D A G D Rudolph Valentino, looks very much alive, F#m Bm G A And he looks up ladies dresses as they sadly pass him by. Bm F#m Avoid stepping on Bela Lugosi G A cos he?s liable to turn and bite, D7 G But stand close by Bette Davis A D Because hers was such a lonely life. D A If you covered him with garbage, G D George Sanders would still have style, F#m Bm And if you stamped on Mickey Rooney G A He would still turn round and smile, Bm F#m But please don t tread on dearest Marilyn G A cos she s not very tough, D7 G She should have been made of iron or steel, A D But she was only made of flesh and blood. C G D You can see all the stars as you walk down Hollywood Boulevard, C G D Some that you recognize, some that you ve hardly even heard of, C G D People who worked and suffered and struggled for fame, C G D Some who succeeded and some who suffered in vain. D A G D Everybody s a dreamer and everybody s a star F#m Bm G A And everybody s in show biz, it doesn t matter who you are. Bm F#m And those who are successful, G A Be always on your guard, D7 G Success walks hand in hand with failure A D Along Hollywood Boulevard. C G D Dsus4 D I wish my life was a non-stop Hollywood movie show, C G D A fantasy world of celluloid villains and heroes, C G D Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain C G D Dsus4 D And celluloid heroes never really die.
