  • [Actually in F#; capo 6.]
    [Tune both E strings down to D.]
    [Complete tablature is at the end.]
  • [Some of the chord names are kind of strange; this is what happens
    when you use alternate tunings. Refer to the tab at the end for
    fingerings.]

  • Fare thee well, my bright star
    F6(#4) G C(9) G(4)/B
    I watched your taillights blaze into nothingness
  • C G7/F Em7 Am9
    But you were long gone before I ever got to you
    F6(#4) G Am9 Am7
  • Before you blazed past this address
     
    Dm7(4) C(9)/E F6(9) G
  • And now I think of having loved and having lost
    Dm7(4) C(9)/E F6(9) G7
    You never know what it's like to never love

    Who can say what's better when my heart's become the cost

  • A mere token of a brighter jewel sent from up above
     
    Fare thee well, my bright star
  • The vanity of youth, the color of your eyes
    Maybe if I'd fanned the blazing fire of your day-to-day
    Or if I'd been older I'd been wise
  •  
    Too thick the heat of those long summer evenings
    For a cool evening I began to yearn
  • But you could only feed upon the things which feed a fire
    Waiting to see if I would burn
     
  • Fare thee well, my bright star
    It was a brief brilliant miracle dive
    That which I looked up to and I clung to for dear life
  • F6(#4) G - G#dim Am9 Am7
    Had to burn itself up just to make itself alive
     
  • And I caught you then, in your moment of glory
    Your last dramatic scene against a night sky stage
    With a memory so clear it's as if you're still before me
  • My once in a lifetime star of an age
     
    So fare thee well, my bright star
  • Last night the tongues of fire circled me around
    And this strange season of pain will come to pass
    When the healing hands of autumn cool me dow

    TAB:
     
  • [An equal sign is a hammer-on; / is a slide.]
    [Play all the notes on the lower three strings with your thumb.]
    [Each verse might have a few more or less notes, but the same fingerings.
  • The only big difference is the extra G#dim (6x0x0x) in verse 3.]
    [Actually, you can play it without tuning the high E down, if you want to
    avoid the risk of string breakage. The only adjustment you have to make
  • is in the second measure of the intro, and also on the "easy" version of
    the G9 measures.]

    [Note that in order to do the x5746x chord, you need to use your pinky
    and ring fingers for the Am7 and D(11/)A, rather than the index and
  • middle fingers. Then you slide up to the next chords, and use the
    index and middle fingers for the 5 and 4 in the G9. If that's too
    hard, use the following instead:]

    [Or you can play 0's on the B string instead of 4's on the G string; it sounds
  • fine, but then the ending chord has to include a hammer-on from B to C.]
