E It's no secret that the stars are falling from the sky It's no secret that our world is in darkness tonight A D They say the sun is sometimes eclipsed by a moon E You know I don't see you when she walks in the room It's no secret that a friend is someone who lets you help It's no secret that a liar won't believe anyone else They say a secret is something you tell one other person So I'm telling you, child Chorus: C#m E A Love we shine like a Burning star We're falling from the C#m Sky Tonight A man will C#m E A Beg A man will crawl On the sheer face of love Like a fly on a wall E It's no secret at all It's no secret that a conscience can sometimes be a pest It's no secret ambition bites the nails of success Every artist is a cannibal, every poet is a thief; All kill their inspiration and sing about the grief Chorus - x2 E Oh, yeah! It's no secret that the stars are falling from the sky The universe exploded 'cause of one man's lie Look, I gotta go, yeah I'm running outta change There's a lot of things, if I could I'd rearrange You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  C#m  D  E  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
