#1.
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,
C G
and if you walk down Hollywood Boulevard
A D
their names are written in concrete.
#2.
D A G D
Don't tread 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 G A
But they turned her into a princess and they sat her on a throne,
C G A D
but she turned her back on stardom, 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 recognise, 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.
#3.
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 G A
Avoid stepping on Bela Lugosi, cause he's liable to turn and bite.
C G A D
But stand close by Bette Davis, because hers was such a lonely life.
Chorus:
C G D
You can see all the stars as you walk down Hollywood Boulevard.
C G D
Some that you recognise, 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.
#4.
D A G D
If you covered him with garbage, George Sanders would still have style.
F#m Bm G A
And if you stomped on Mickey Rooney, he would still turn round and smile.
Bm F#m G A
But please don't tread on dearest Marilyn, cause she's not very tough.
D G
She should have been made of iron or steel,
A D
but she was only made of flesh and blood.
#5.
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 G A
And those who are successful, be always on your guard.
D G
Success walks hand in hand with failure,
A D
along Hollywood Boulevard.
Chorus:
C G D
You can see all the stars as you walk down Hollywood Boulevard.
C G D
Some that you recognise, 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.
#6.
C G 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
and celluloid heroes never really die.
Chorus:
C G D
You can see all the stars as you walk down Hollywood Boulevard.
C G D
Some that you recognise, 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.
#7.
C G D
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
C G D
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
C G D
Oh, celluloid heroes never feel any pain,
C G D
Oh, celluloid heroes never really die.
#8.
C G 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
and celluloid heroes never really die.
