The Pluto Blues
By Owen Temple
3/27/2010




Capo 2 on the bottom 5 strings only



  D
I heard what happened, what they did to you
  D                               A
I read it in the paper, could not believe it was true
D 
Scientists all met up as I understand it
     D                                                           A  D 
They changed their minds one more time, now Pluto's not a planet

Pluto was once every astronomer's dream
A few decades later, nothing's sacred it seems
Now it lost its place in the planetarium set
In orbit for centuries - the thanks that you get

Chorus: G D But today's star is tomorrow's black hole A D Fame in the solar system is a dangerous goal G D Bm One day you're a planet, next day just a rock in space D Left in the cold, fallen from grace He was the star of TV's Diff'rent Strokes Once people the world over were laughing at his jokes He made millions of dollars with one trademark phrase But it all went downhill after those glory days Well, the TV show was cancelled, they said he wasn't funny But then he found out his parents spent all of his money And now he's doing his best as a security guard He never thought the acting gig would ever be this hard Chorus Bridge: Bm D And I know it isn't fair, celebrity's no gentle game A D You haven't got it made when everybody knows your name Bm D You may think your place in the stars is for sure E7 A A trip from the top to a rent-a-cop can make you feel insecure So take a lesson from former planets and former stars You might dream someday everybody knows who you are But astronomers are a fickle bunch, and the public just gets bored You might wake up to find you're not a planet anymore Choru
