Marina And The Diamonds - Starring Role

capo on the 2nd fret

Bm , D , A , G through all the song

you’re hard to hug , tough to talk to
and i never fall asleep , when you’re in my bed
all you give me is a heartbeat
i’ve turned into a statue
and it makes me feel depressed
cause the only time you open up is when we get undressed

you don’t love me , big fxxking deal
i’ll never tell , you how i feel
you don’t love me , not a big deal
i’ll never tell you how i feel

hook :
it almost feels like a joke to play out the part
when you are not the starring role in someone else’s heart
you know i’d rather walk alone , than play a supporting role
if i can’t get the starring role .

sometimes i ignore you so i feel in control
cause really , i adore you , and i can’t leave you alone
fed up with the fantasies , they cover what is wrong
come on , baby , let’s just , get drunk , forget we don’t get on

you like my dad , you get on well
i send my best , regards from hell

hook :
it almost feels like a joke to play out the part
when you are not the starring role in someone else’s heart
you know i’d rather walk alone , than play a supporting role
if i can’t get the starring role

i never sent for love , i never had a heart to mend
because before the start began , i always saw the end

yeah , i wait for you to open up , to give yourself to me
but nothing’s ever gonna give , i’ll never set you free
yeah i’ll never set you free

hook :
it almost feels like a joke to play out the part
when you are not the starring role in someone else’s heart
you know i’d rather walk alone , than play a supporting role
if i can’t get the starring role .
