Dating A Porn Star Tab

by The Weepies


This is a great song to cover by the Weepies, off their album "Happiness." 
This is my first time tabbing/chording, but I have been playing for years. 
The other version was done without the capo, this version I am doing is with
the capo, capo on the 5th fret. If you don't have a capo, look at the other 
version. 

Relative to capo

There are a lot of hammer-ons and offs based around the G, C, and D chords.
I'll let you figure them out :-)

Capo 5

Intro:     

                                       
Dating a porn star, it isn't all roses
                                       
She leaves you home on a Saturday night
                                        
You can go crazy with thoughts and supposes
                                             
Lose the thin thread between what's wrong and right

                               
So Starlight won't you kiss me
                               
For I have missed you so
                                      
Just like the others
                        
And all of their brothers
                    
I've come to see the show

                                         
The strip club crowd looks like a sad constellation
                                         
But I hold your heart like the sky holds the moon
                        
I'm cast down outside 'cause they don't allow boyfriends
                              
Star won't you tell me you're coming home soon

                               
So Starlight won't you kiss me
                               
For I have missed you so
                                      
Just like the others
                        
And all of their brothers
                    
I've come to see the show                                                 



                           
Playing cards with the bouncer to let me back in
                          
I hear them announce her and I hear her begin
                                       
Sometimes I think that I was born to lose
                                     
My money, my shirt, my socks and my shoes

                                           
Dating a porn star, it's bad news brother
                                          
You wonder how long 'til the coming of day
                                         
And wait by the sparkly curtains of heaven
                                         
The stars look so pretty from so far away


                               
So Starlight won't you kiss me
                               
For I have missed you so
                                      
Just like the others
                        
And all of their brothers
                    
I've come to see the show
