Intro: E G# F# x 2  (hammer on the A & D strings)



Verse 1:

E                  Ab                 F#
You and I, we were born to play these parts

And we play them so well
E                        Ab                     F#
So well, that often sometimes so much that even I forget,

You know, who we really are, it keeps me locked in to the deal..

F#
Binary stars
Ab
Companions in the sky
A
Always in orbit
     Ab        G F#
But never to collide
F#                    Ab        
We're just not going supernova anytime soon
A                      B
We're just two stars out under the moon


Chorus: 

E        Ab                        F#               
Typecast, we play losers who keep falling in love with the wrong ones
E        Ab                    F# 
Typecast, what a show, why won't they cancel us
            A                              A
We've got a million more seasons to go, oh FUCK !!!
           E       Ab  F#
We've been typecast


E  Ab  F#

 
Verse 2:

Every shadow I knew you underneath was just a studio trick
A spotlight on the stage
Black puddles, to simulate the depth
To manipulate the young and naive and hide your age

F#
Well worse than liars
Ab
We're paid to be fakes
A                                    Ab            G   F#
Ghost lights in your living room for in between matinees
F#                  Ab
Two lonely stars, someplace beyond the moon
      A                                    B
Where all the light is coming but never receiving of getting any..

E        Ab                        F#               
Typecast, we play losers who keep falling in love with the wrong ones
E        Ab                    F# 
Typecast, what a show, why won't they cancel us 

E        Ab                        F#               
Typecast, we play losers who keep falling in love with the wrong ones
E        Ab                    F# 
Typecast, what a show, why won't they cancel us

            E                       Ab     F#
We've got a million more seasons to go, oh no, oh yes,
            E     Ab   F#
We've been typecast..oh fuck..
E     F#   Ab   E..
We've been typecast
