Time: shuffled 4/4

Key: Ab major

Capo on 1st fret

Ab major isn't really a suitable key for guitar, but by using a capo on the

1st fret you can play as if the song was in G major, which is absolutely the

most suitable for key for guitar. This tab is actually done in G major then,

but after the lyrics I've added the chords in the actual key, Ab major.

Why do you keep all your stars in from your studio on Melrose Avenue?

You have locked all your assets up in lifelong contracts to you

Didn't you know that old Hollywood is over?

Oh, can't you see all the good that celebrity can do for those in the dark

Yes, of course I am speaking in metaphors for something more in your heart

Didn't you know that old Hollywood is over?

So why not just release the gates and let them all come out

Remember that without them there would be no Paramount

No Paramount need to hold on to what isn't yours

Release the stars

The more that you fight, then the more they will scrutinize and realize just your size

And believe me, you are no match for a public that has seen the whites of your eyes

Didn't you know that old Hollywood is over?

Old Hollywood is over

So why don't you just release the gates and let them all come out

Remember that without them there would be no Paramount

No Paramount need to hold on to what isn't yours

Release the stars

Release the stars, release your love

'Cause old Hollywood is over

Why do you keep all your stars in from your studio on Melrose Avenue?
