See chorus intro for second G measure:
She spoke of her beginnings at Metro Goldwyn Mayor.
And of touching millions with no one really there.
A child of the movies in a pyrite golden age.
I never knew the price she paid for a life upon that stage.
Chorus:
Judy had that catch in her voice....

She had trouble sleeping and waking for the day
with studio prescriptions to keep her thin and fey
They'd work her to exhaustion propelled by benzydrine
then call her unreliable when she would miss a scene
who'd have known a girl so young could have gone that far?
Chorus
The pallidium in London the Palace in New York
the come back of a trouper when God wondered at her work
She asked me of the movie stars and singers of today
I said I couldn't think of one she wouldn't blow away
She lauged and then she thanked me and said she had to go
for there were rainbows waiting down along a golden road
Chorus
I dreamed of Judy Garland all on a summer's night
Resting in a dressing room packing stardust for her flight

* play with pick and roll action: notes shown played in order on
one beat, almost but not quite simultaneously
I used the same vertical symbols to indicate strums as I did the
chord divisions so if it doesn't say strum - don't strum. Strum
the strings shown on the indicated chord.

Please email me: Mike Harris <mjharris@nyx.cs.du.edu> with transcription
errors or suggested changes.
This is guaranteed to be correct according to my ear as far it is
transcribed correctly. This is my first attempt at tab. Be nice.
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 JOHN GORKA 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.
