I was listening to a lot of Dylan in 2001. It shows.
Also I think I was drunk at the time.
Actually, it's a comedy about all of the above.
A Comedy on the Falls of Stars
Maddie McGuire
2001 GirlMoon Music
(D)
I've said too much
(D)
I've seen the censors
(G)
Blind in the eye
(D)
I've quoted some people
(G)
"I've quoted myself" said I
(D)
I've made things wrong
(G)
seen wrong and made it right
(C)
and now the stars will fall tonight
(D)
the stars will fall tonight
I've broken lamps
I have seen the light
and dimmed it too
I've been evil
I've made the sex
with plenty more than you
I've seen the old
sneezed on it to renew
tonight I'll see what the stars'll do
I'll see what the stars will do
I have lied
when I was honest
through my teeth
I have cried
when it's the only way
you'll let me speak
I have seen death
but only to the strong and weak
come see stars washed up on the beach
washed up on the beach
come see stars washed up on the beach
washed up on the beach
Note: Played with the capo on the 3rd fret, soft and somber like a lullaby, and very folksy. Though I have tinkered with putting on so much distortion and volume that you can't understand the words and turning it into a metal thing. Not that you can understand the words when you hear them either...
In hindsight: I wrote it about Hamlet.
