Joining a fanclub best be warned
He turns me on when he wears that lampshade crown of thorns
We'd look so dreamy sharing his black caviar
Well I'm pickin' up a fallen star
F..........F7/A..........Bb....Eb7/G.
Joining a fanclub it's a big mistake
F...........F7/A.............Eb..........Bb/D.......Cm........Bb.
I still get heartburn when I think about all of the stamps I ate
A............A7/C#............Dm...............Bm7b5
I wished I'd loved him before fate crashed his car
......Bb.....F/A.........C#/Ab.........Eb/G......F....
Say a prayer for a fal....len star
Bb.......F/A....C#/Ab..Eb/G.

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official JELLYFISH tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
