Dont Forget Me

E
they thought they could dispose of me
A
they tried to make me small
E
i suffered each indignity
A
but now rise above it all

C#m
yes , the price i paid was all i had
A
but at last , i found release
D
and if something good can come from bad
A
the past can rest in peace

E
oh if you see someone’s hurt

and in need of a hand
A
don’t forget me
E
or hear a melody crying from some baby grand
A
you don’t forget me

C#m
when you sing happy birthday to someone you love
A
or see diamonds you wish were all free
E
please say that you won’t;
B E
i pray that you don’t forget me

F
but forget every man who i ever met
A#
’cause they only lived to control
F
for a kiss they paid a thousand
A#
yet they paid fifty cents for my soul

Dm
they took their piece
A#
the price of fame that no one can repay
D#
ah , but they didn’t buy me when they bought my name
C
and that is why i pray

F
that when you see someone’s hurt

and in need of a hand
A#
you don’t forget me
F
or hear a melody crying from some baby grand
A#
you don’t forget me

Dm
when you sing happy birthday to someone you love
A#
or see diamonds you wish were all free
F
please say that you won’t;
C F
i pray that you don’t forget me

A#
there are some in this world who have strength on their own
F
never broken or in need of repair
C#
but there are some born to shine who can’t do it alone
D# F
so protect them and take special care
F#
take care

F#
and don’t forget me
B
please take care
F#
and don’t forget me
D#m
when you look to the heavens with someone you love
B
and a light shining bright from afar
F#
hope you see my face there
C#
and then offer a prayer
Bm
and please let me be
F#
let me be that star
