My Claim to Fame chords by Mark Knopfler


Mark Knopfler Chords

Intro:  
F      C  G  F     C  
Dm   C  G  C 
 
 
C               Am 
Well he's a big star now 
  
         F                 G                C 
But I've been a fan of his for years 
C (*)                         F 
The way he sings and plays guitar 
 
G                   C 
Still brings me to tears  
 
I wouldn't want to be a big deal 
I wouldn't want to be a celebrity 
I spend my life building ships of steel 
That's all there ever was for me  
 
Take a hammer to the sea belles 
And shout my name 
And I'll sail the seas as free as a breeze 
That's my claim to fame  
 
He spends his life in the studio 
Jet planes and big black cars 
Plays records on the radio 
In all of the clubs and in all of the bars  
 
By day he didn't have a choice 
You had to take a trade 
You had no money and you had no voice 
That's the life I made  
 
Take a hammer to the sea belles 
And shout my name 
And I'll sail the seas as free as a breeze 
That's my claim to fame  
 
That's my claim to fame boys 
That's my claim to fame 
To sail the seas as free as a breeze 
That's my claim to fame  
 
La, la ....: same as intro 
 
Solo: same as verse 
 
Well a song can live forever and a day 
An old ship goes to the breakers yard 
In a hundred years you're gonna hear him play 
They won't remember me for working hard  
 
Now they've all gone away, all the boys and the girls 
They yard is a grave where the river runs through 
We used to build the ships for the whole wide world 
Now we couldn't do it if we wanted to  
 
Take a hammer to the sea belles 
And shout my name 
I'll sail the seas as free as a breeze 
That's my claim to fame  
 
Take a hammer to the sea belles 
And shout my name 
I'll sail the seas as free as a breeze 
That's my claim to fame  
 
That's my claim to fame boys 
That's my claim to fame 
To sail the seas as free as a breeze 
That's my claim to fame
