When the Stars Come Out Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I w[A]as[G][D]
looking
for a change of scene
[C]You were looking at a magazine
With [G]red carpets and limousines
And the [D]grass seemed so much greener
All we wanted was to get there fast
So [C]we packed up everything we had
Run[G]ning on hope and a tank of gas
Like [D]dreams weren't
just for dreamers
[Em]We couldn't wait
To [Bm]leave that life behind
[G]Trying to find salvation
in the city limits sign
And one of [D]those L .A. nights
When the stars [A]come out,
when the [G]stars come out
And they [D]shine, and they burn so bright
They drown the [A]downtown lights
When the [G]stars come out,
when the [D]stars come out
Everybody, somebody,
[C]someday
Everybody's got a part
to [G]play
Everybody's trying to find a way
To say [D]what needs saying
[Dsus4][D]
Everybody's got a friend of a friend
[C]Somebody who can get you in
Beg[G]ging angels for a sin
A [D]game we're all playing
[Em]You and I, we're gamblers
Holding [Bm]cards that we can't see
[G]I'm betting on you,
and you're betting on me
And one of those [D]L .A. nights
When the [A]stars come out
When the [G]stars come out
And they [D]shine
And they burn so bright
They drown the [A]downtown lights
When the [G]stars come out
When the [D]stars come out
[A][G][D]
[C][G][D]
[Em]Out on the freeway,
the sun [Bm]is out of sight
An[G]d I got a feeling tonight
might be the night
Tonight might be the night
One of [D]those L .A. nights
When the [A]stars come out,
when the [G]stars come out
And they [D]shine, with the birds so bright
They drown the [A]downtown lights
When the [G]stars come out,
when the [D]stars come out
When the [G]stars come out
When the [D]stars come out

[Outro 1]
[D][A][G][D]
