Celluloid Heroes chords
The Kinks *
D A G D
Everybody s a dreamer and everybody s a star,
F#m Bm G A
And everybody s in movies, it doesn t matter who you are.
Bm F#m
There are stars in every city,
G A
In every house and on every street,
D7 G
And if you walk down Hollywood Boulevard
A D
Their names are written in concrete!
D A G D
Don t step on Greta Garbo as you walk down the boulevard,
F#m Bm G A
She looks so weak and fragile that s why she tried to be so hard
Bm F#m
But they turned her into a princess
G A
And they sat her on a throne,
D7 G
But she turned her back on stardom,
A D
Because she wanted to be alone.
C G D
You can see all the stars as you walk down Hollywood Boulevard,
C G D
Some that you recognize, some that you ve hardly even heard of,
C G D
People who worked and suffered and struggled for fame,
C G D
Some who succeeded and some who suffered in vain.
D A G D
Rudolph Valentino, looks very much alive,
F#m Bm G A
And he looks up ladies dresses as they sadly pass him by.
Bm F#m
Avoid stepping on Bela Lugosi
G A
cos he’s liable to turn and bite,
D7 G
But stand close by Bette Davis
A D
Because hers was such a lonely life.
D A
If you covered him with garbage,
G D
George Sanders would still have style,
F#m Bm
And if you stamped on Mickey Rooney
G A
He would still turn round and smile,
Bm F#m
But please don t tread on dearest Marilyn
G A
cos she s not very tough,
D7 G
She should have been made of iron or steel,
A D
But she was only made of flesh and blood.
C G D
You can see all the stars as you walk down Hollywood Boulevard,
C G D
Some that you recognize, some that you ve hardly even heard of,
C G D
People who worked and suffered and struggled for fame,
C G D
Some who succeeded and some who suffered in vain.
D A G D
Everybody s a dreamer and everybody s a star
F#m Bm G A
And everybody s in show biz, it doesn t matter who you are.
Bm F#m
And those who are successful,
G A
Be always on your guard,
D7 G
Success walks hand in hand with failure
A D
Along Hollywood Boulevard.
C G D Dsus4 D
I wish my life was a non-stop Hollywood movie show,
C G D
A fantasy world of celluloid villains and heroes,
C G D
Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain
C G D Dsus4 D
And celluloid heroes never really die.
C G D Dsus4 D
You can see all the stars as you walk down Hollywood Boulevard,

Oh celluloid heroes never feel any pain

Oh celluloid heroes never really die.
