Intro:  Am  D  
ETrain me up to be Athe brightest star
EI'm not laughing but AI think you are
GAnd I'm not the kind of person
That takes things Elightly (x2)
AmCause all I want is a pDlace of my own
With a lGittle patch of garden and a pEatio
AmAnd all I want is a Droom with a view
With an Gupstairs lounge, I'll Ebe rid of you
With Aman upstairs lounge, I'll be rid of Dyou
ETrain me up to be Athe brightest star
EI'm not laughing but AI think you are
GAnd I'm not the kind of person
That takes things Elightly (x2)
AmAnd all I want is a Dphotograph
Because GI can't walk in when Ehaving a bath
AmAnd all I want is Dsomething that's mine
Not to Ghave to buy the toothpaste Eevery time
I don't Amwant to buy the toothpaste every Dtime
Am D G E Am D G E
With Aman upstairs lounge, I'll be rid of Dyou
ETrain me up to be Athe brightest star
EI'm not laughing but AI think you are
GAnd I'm not the kind of person
That takes things Elightly
AmCause all I want is a pDlace of my own
With a lGittle patch of garden and a pEatio
AmAnd all I want is a Droom with a view
With an Gupstairs lounge, I'll Ebe rid of you
With Aman upstairs lounge, I'll be rid of Dyou
