Dm A# F C
Dm A# F C
           Dm                   A#
There is an empty space in the chair tonight  
         F           C
Cause he don't feel right  
            Dm                        A#
There are stormclouds brewing at the back of his mind  
       F    C
As he steps outside  
           Dm
He will be twenty in a week  
         A#
But he's old for his years  
         F
He's had many of those  
    C
To confront his own fears  
         Dm                                A#
But his father's not the man he'd like to grow up to be  
    A
And his mother isn't growing old gracefully  
         A#                      Dm               C
He says times like these I don't want to be a Superstar  
      A#      Dm                    C
Cause reality tv killed them all in america  
        A#        Dm          C
Oh the sun always shines in a magazine  
  A#              Dm                C          A
Tonight can we be free to be who we really are  
Dm A# F C
Dm                                      A#
There is an empty space between the lines tonight  
      F            C
And it burns so bright  
          Dm                   A#
And the angry silence that he throws on the floor  
    F               C
Says he don't care anymore  
       Dm
He had money for the truth  
    A#
But love's a lot more  
        F                               C
And the answer's is not the one he was looking for  
     Dm                               A#
His father's not the man he'd like to grow up to be  
         A
And his mother is his mother reluctantly  
         A#                      Dm               C
He says times like these I don't want to be a Superstar  
      A#      Dm                    C
Cause reality tv killed them all in america  
        A#        Dm          C
Oh the sun always shines in a magazine  
  A#              Dm                C          A
Tonight can we be free to be who we really are  
         A#                      Dm               C
He says times like these I don't want to be a Superstar  
      A#      Dm                    C
Cause reality tv killed them all in america

Oh the sun always shines in a magazine  
  A#              Dm                C
Tonight can we be free to be who we really are
