I used to dream about being a star, but never ever seemed to get that far,
GI could never sing the lyrics, DNever sing the song, CNever keep a rhythm, Galways played it wrong,
CI'd never be special, DNever be great, CJust walking alone in a Gworld full of hate
Chorus:
CA               C           GA
So you ask me if something's wrong?
CA                  C  G  
This is my last ever song. (x2)
Verse 2: (Same chords as the above the chorus section)
I used to hope I'd be another one, In a history book on young guns
But I never cleaned the barrel, never took aim, Playing for real, in what was just a game
I was nothing special, I was nothing great, another statistic of 2008
Chorus
Verse 3:
I always thought I'd be running hot, but never got off the starting block
I could never give more, than I already got, so I guess I got to lose, I've already lost a lot
I'm nothing special, nothing unique, another guitarist without a peak
Chorus (x2)
