Biography:
Emily Elbert weaves together a rhythmic funk-folk blend of introspection and celebration. With a global, D.I.Y. spirit, she has carried her music around the world, playing over a thousand independent shows from Peru to Palestine. Anchored by intricate guitar work and an old-soul voice, Emily’s songs offer progressive perspective while paying tribute to the timeless. She has independently released four albums, and two new singles, “Letting Go / Here & Now”, in November 2016.

Artist: Emily Elbert
Song: Stars
Tabbed by: Jessie :)
This song is really relaxed so these chords are just a general guideline.
I got these chords by listening to this version of the song:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=th3GMejUm3I
Suggestions:
-The guitar can fool around by adding dominant 7ths to the minor chords
-or a major 7th to the G chords
-or switching some of the Bm's with D/F#'s :P
+Classical guitar recommended.
-The bass can have fun dodging root notes and emphasizing dissonance
-particularly the Eb during the chorus :D
+Upright bass recommended.
KEY OF G ...or something :P
G Bm
Mmmmmm....
G7 E7
Mmmmmm....

G Bm
VERSE 1
G Bm
Even when it's gray there is a sun somewhere.
G7 E7
Even when you're short of breath there's still some air.
Am D7 G Bm
Even when it's cold outside there's love to warm our souls and we'll be fine.
G Bm
If I lose my guitar I'll still have songs to sing.
G7 E7
If I lose my car I'll be just fine walking.
Am D7 G Bm
If I lose my way I'll lift my head, find my home, and I'll be fine.
CHORUS
G
Because the stars
G7 C
never fade
Cm/Eb
away,
G Bm
away.
VERSE 2
G Bm
If you look closely you'll find beauty in the streets
G7 E7
and in the corner of your bedroom where two lovely walls meet.
Am D7 G Bm
There's a bigger scale around us though, with clouds and trees and animals.
CHORUS X2
G
Cause the stars
G7 C
never fade
Cm/Eb
away,
G Bm
away.
G
No the stars
G7 C
never fade
Cm/Eb
away,
G Bm
away.
*SCAT* - play VERSE chords --> G Bm G7 E7 Am D7 G Bm
CHORUS
G
No the stars

never fade

G Bm
away.
That's all! I hope you enjoyed the song as much as I did :)
