[Verse]
G# Cm
I had a dream on a back lot
F# C# C#/C A#m
I saw my life like a long shot
G# Cm
I smile at faces in a picture parade
F# C# C#/C A#m
Of all the stills from the films that you've made
G# Cm
That we would see in the Essoldo
F# C#/F F# C#/G# G#
After drinking coffee at the Gi- o-con-do
[Chorus]
A#m D#m/F#
Elstree, remember me?
G#sus4 G#/F# C#/F
I had a part in a C movie
F# D#m6 | C | F |
I played a man from history
A#m D#m/F#
Elstree, ah look at me (Oh-o-oh)
G#sus4 G#/F# C#/F
Now I work for the CBC (Oh-o-oh)
F# D#m6 | C | F F/D# F/C# F/C |
Life is not what it used to be
[Verse]
G# Cm
I took no dives in the fight scene
F# C# C#/C A#m
I had a stuntman, keep my suit clean
G# Cm
There’s no technology to fake-up a song
F# C#/F F# C#/G# G#
They stop the orchestra if you get it wrong
[Chorus]
A#m D#m/F#
Elstree, remember me?

[Verse]
G# Cm
They made a field into a war zone
F# C# C#/C A#m
I beat the enemy on my own
G# Cm
All the bullets just went over my head

There’s no reality and no one dead in
