See chorus intro for second G measure:

She spoke of her beginnings at Metro Goldwyn Mayor.
And of touching millions with no one really there.
A child of the movies in a pyrite golden age.
I never knew the price she paid for a life upon that stage.

Chorus:
Judy had that catch in her voice....

She had trouble sleeping and waking for the day
with studio prescriptions to keep her thin and fey
They'd work her to exhaustion propelled by benzydrine
then call her unreliable when she would miss a scene
who'd have known a girl so young could have gone that far?

Chorus

The pallidium in London the Palace in New York
the come back of a trouper when God wondered at her work
She asked me of the movie stars and singers of today
I said I couldn't think of one she wouldn't blow away
She lauged and then she thanked me and said she had to go
for there were rainbows waiting down along a golden road

Chorus

I dreamed of Judy Garland all on a summer's night
Resting in a dressing room packing stardust for her flight

----------------------------------------------------------------
* play with pick and roll action: notes shown played in order on
one beat, almost but not quite simultaneously

I used the same vertical symbols to indicate strums as I did the
chord divisions so if it doesn't say strum - don't strum. Strum
the strings shown on the indicated chord.

Please email me: Mike Harris <mjharris@nyx.cs.du.edu> with transcription
errors or suggested changes.

This is guaranteed to be correct according to my ear as far it is
transcribed correctly. This is my first attempt at tab. Be nice.
