[Verse]

G
  I was looking for a change of scene
F
  You were looking at a magazine
       C
It was red carpets and limousines
        G
And the grass seemed so much greener

G
  All we wanted was to get there fast
      F
So we packed up everything we had
C
Running on hope and a tank of gas
     G
Like dreams ain’t just for dreamers

F                     Em
  We couldn’t wait to leave that life behind
Am                                  C
   Trying to find salvation in that city limit sign


[Chorus]

                 G
And one of those A  nights
         D
When the stars come out
        C                   G
Oh, the stars come out, and shine

         G
And they burn so bright 
               D
They drown the downtown lights
         C
When the stars come out
             G
Oh, when the stars come out


[Verse]

G
  Everybody’s somebody someday
F
  Everybody’s got a part to play
C
  Everybody’s trying to find a way
   G
To say what needs saying

G
  Everybody’s got a friend of a friend
F
  Somebody that can get you in
C
  Begging angels for a sin
     G
In a game that we’re all playing

F                                   Em
  You and I we’re gamblers, holding cards that we can’t see
Am                                   C
  And I’m betting on you, and you’re betting on me


[Chorus]

                 G
And one of those A  nights
         D
When the stars come out
        C                   G
Oh, the stars come out, and shine

         G
And they burn so bright 
               D
They drown the downtown lights
         C
When the stars come out
             G
Oh, when the stars come out


[Chorus solo]

[Bridge]

F                          Em
  Down on the freeway, the sun is out of sight
Am                      C
  And I got a feeling tonight might be the night
        C
Yeah, tonight might be the night


[Chorus]

             G
One of those A  nights
         D
When the stars come out
        C                   G
Oh, the stars come out, and shine

         G
And they burn so bright 
               D
They drown the downtown lights
         C
When the stars come out
             G
Oh, when the stars come out
         D
When the stars come out
        C     C
Ohhh oh oh  
         G                F  C  G
when the stars come out
