I Was Meant For The Stage Chords

(ver. 2)
Decemberists
The other tab is fine and all(by Unregistered)... But it didn't have all of the lyrics!
So, here is the full song; enjoy!


C
I was meant for the stage, 
F                   C
I was meant for the curtain. 
C     Cmaj9    Am          Am7/G
I was meant to tread these boards, 
   F              C
Of this much i am certain. 

C
I was meant for the crowd, 
F                   C
I was meant for the shouting. 
C     Cmaj9    Am          Am7/G
I was meant to raise these hands 
     F               C       G
With quiet all about me. oh, oh. 

C
Mother, please, be proud. 
F             C
Father, be forgiven. 
C    Cmaj9      Am       Am7/G
Even though you told me 'Son, 
       F              C          G
you'll never make a living.' oh, oh. 

G                            F
                      C
Here I was fated to reside. 
                       G
And as I take my final bow, 
                      C
Was there ever any doubt? 
                            F
And as the spotlights fade away, 
                                 C
And you're escorted through the foyer,
                             G 
You will resume your callow ways, 
                          C
But I was meant for the stage. 

C
The heaven's at my door.
F               C
intended my for stardom.
C     Cmaj9    Am           Am7/G
rays of light shined down on me
     F                C
and all my sins were pardoned.

C       
I was meant for applause.
F
I was meant for durigin.
C       Cmaj9    Am         Am7/G 
nothing short of faded self has
F            C            G
affected my decision. oh, oh.

G                            F
                      C
Here I was fated to reside. 
                       G
And as I take my final bow, 
                      C
Was there ever any doubt? 
                            F
And as the spotlights fade away, 
                                 C
And you're escorted through the foyer,
                             G 
You will resume your callow ways, 
                          C
But I was meant for the stage.
