[Intro]
F#m D
Stars are never sleeping
F#m D
Dead ones and the living

[Verse 1]
F#m
We live closer to the earth
D
Never to the heavens
F#m
The stars are never far away
D
Stars are out tonight

[Verse 2]
F#m
They watch us from behind their shades
D
Brigitte Jack and Kate and Brad
F#m
From behind their tinted window stretch
D
Gleaming like blackened sunshine
F#m D
Stars are never sleeping
F#m D
Dead ones and the living

[Verse 3]
F#m
Waiting for the first move
D
Satyrs and their child wives
F#m
Waiting for the last move
D
Soaking up our primitive world
F#m D
Stars are never sleeping
F#m D
Dead ones and the living

[Chorus]
E
Their jealousy's spilling down
D
The stars must stick together
F#m
We will never be rid of these stars
D
But I hope they live forever
E
And they know just what we do
D
That we toss and turn at night
F#m
They're waiting to make their moves
D
But the stars are out tonight

[Verse 4]
F#m
Here they are upon the stairs
D
Sexless and unaroused
F#m
They are the stars they're dying for you
D
But I hope they live forever

[Instrumental]
F#m E D C#
D F#m D

[Verse 5]
F#m
They burn you with their radiant smiles
D
Trap you with their beautiful eyes
F#m
They're broke and shamed or drunk or scared
D
But I hope they live forever

[Chorus]
E
Their jealousy's spilling down
D
The stars must stick together
F#m
We will never be rid of these stars
D
But I hope they live forever
E
And they know just what we do
D
That we toss and turn at night
F#m
They're waiting to make their moves on us
D
The stars are out tonight

[Outro]
F#m D
The stars are out tonight
F#m D
The stars are out tonight
