Oh, E7have you heard the word
Our friend is E7gonna be a star
She's A7gonna get the chauffeur, yeah
And she's A7gonna get the car
And she's E7gonna get the A7love of
The E7people at the A7bar
         (knocks on body of guitar)
And she's gonna give birth to
A baby guiE7tar
Now E7rumor says our good friend
Has E7done some carrying on
And A7rumor says in public
She makes A7love to all her songs
In E7front of the frusA7tration
Of the E7people at the A7bar
             (knocks on guitar)
She's got the nerve to mess around
With her guiE7tar
It was E7sad to see the breakdown
Of the E7princess falling star
One A7day when she was doing all
The A7people at the bar
She E7did a little A7don't, yeah
And they E7pulled her head aA7part
And E7neatly tucked aA7way inside
Her E7eyelid was the A7heart
And they all E7looked at one aA7nother
And said, "We E7knew it- there A7you are
 (knocks on guitar)
A nameless, illegitimate
Baby guiE7tar"
A E7loving, loyal friend
Took the E7offspring as his own
And acA7cording to it's birthright
He A7built it a throne
And now E7just like his A7mama
He does the E7people at the A7bar
And they E7look at one aA7nother and say, 
"He's E7gonna be a A7star"
    (knocks on guitar)
Remembering well the mother of
The baby guiE7tar.

Oh, have you heard the word

Our friend is gonna be a star

She's gonna get the chauffeur, yeah

And she's gonna get the car

E7 A7

And she's gonna get the love of

E7 A7

The people at the bar

(knocks on body of guitar)

And she's gonna give birth to

A baby guitar

Now rumor says our good friend

Has done some carrying on

And rumor says in public

She makes love to all her songs

E7 A7

In front of the frustration

E7 A7

Of the people at the bar

(knocks on guitar)

She's got the nerve to mess around

With her guitar

It was sad to see the breakdown

Of the princess falling star

One day when she was doing all

The people at the bar

E7 A7

She did a little don't, yeah

E7 A7

And they pulled her head apart

E7 A7

And neatly tucked away inside

E7 A7

Her eyelid was the heart

E7 A7

And they all looked at one another

E7 A7

And said, "We knew it- there you are

(knocks on guitar)

A nameless, illegitimate

Baby guitar"

A loving, loyal friend

Took the offspring as his own

And according to it's birthright

He built it a throne

E7 A7

And now just like his mama

E7 A7

He does the people at the bar

E7 A7

And they look at one another and say,

E7 A7

"He's gonna be a star"

(knocks on guitar)

Remembering well the mother of

The baby guitar.
