Verse 1

Em       D          C       Bm
Long Ago, And oh so Far Away
         Am            C
I fell in love with you
           Bm
Before the second show
Em       D                C              Bm
Your Guitar, it sounds so sweet and clear
              Am           C
But you're not really here
              Bm
It's just the radio


Chorus

C          Bm      Am                       G
Don't you remember you told me you loved me Baby
C         Bm       Am                     G
Said you'd be coming back this way again Baby
C    Bm   Am           G
Baby Baby Baby Baby oh Baby
   F       C         Em  
I love you, I really do

Verse 2

Em       D          C       Bm
loneliness, is such a sad affair
          Am       C
and I can hardly wait
           Bm
to be with you again
Em          D             C    Bm
what to say to make you come again
              Am    C
come back to me again
                 Bm
and play your sad guitar

Chorus

C          Bm      Am                       G
Don't you remember you told me you loved me Baby
C         Bm       Am                     G
Said you'd be coming back this way again Baby
C    Bm   Am           G
Baby Baby Baby Baby oh Baby
   F       C         Em  
I love you, I really do  x2

it sounds like this intro and the chords aren't in the same key. Am I crazy?

About this song: Superstar

The track was originally released as a b-side to the Delaney & Bonnie single "Comin' Home" in December 1969, as "Groupie (Superstar)". It was covered by many artists, including Luther Vandross and Bette Midler, but most notably The Carpenters in 1971. The Sonic Youth version (recorded in 1994 for the If I Were a Carpenter tribute album) is haunting and sad, carrying a completely different feel to the original.
