This is a great song. I saw the movie Rock Star for the one billionth time today,
and remembered how great of a song this is … easy too. It changes to a different
key at the very end, but it’s not hard to follow. Enjoy.

Verse 2:
Most were being good for goodness sake, but you
Wouldn’t pantomime
You are more beautifull when you awake
Than most are in a lifetime
Through the haze that is my memory, well
You stayed for drama, though you paid for a comedy
