GRACE POTTER AND THE NOCTURNALS – Stars

This song is from the album The Lion the Beast the Beat(2012), released on June 12, 2012.
I am very impressed by the range of her vocals, especially the last chorus. Those high notes were perfect and the background music made it even more better. The piano and the strings added a nice effect to the song, and the rhythm even though not very complex, made the song glue together. The bass guitar could have been done a little better, because a song with such powerful vocals and techniques should have had a better bass guitar. I loved this song and thanks to Lauren for this beautiful suggestion.

[INTRO] Am F C x2
[VERSE]
Am                     F               C
I lit a fire with the love you left behind
               Am       F                 C
And it burned wild and crept up the mountain side
G                 F               Am
I followed your ashes into outer space
                        G    F                       G
I can't look out the window, I can't look at this place.

[CHORUS]
                       C Em
I can't look at the stars
     Am                F
They make me wonder where you are
C   Em  Am                F
Stars, up on heaven's boulevard
       C              G                  Am      F
And if I know you at all, I know you've gone too far
  C  G                    Am
So I, I can't look at the stars.

[INSTRUMENTAL] Am G C

[VERSE]
Am                  F             C
All those times we looked up at the sky
         Am             F                   C
Looking out so far, it felt like we could fly
G                 F                   Am
And now I'm all alone in the dark of night
Am                  G       F                 G
And the moon is shining, but I can't see the light.

[CHORUS]
                       C Em
I can't look at the stars
     Am                F
They make me wonder where you are
C   Em  Am                F
Stars, up on heaven's boulevard
       C              G                  Am      F
And if I know you at all, I know you've gone too far
  C  G                    Am
So I, I can't look at the stars.

[CHORUS]

Stars
C  Em        Am             F
Stars, they make me wonder where you are
C   Em  Am              F
Stars, up on heaven's boulevard
      C           G                     Am        F
And if I know you at all, I know you've gone too far
  C   G                  C
So I can't look at the stars.
