E
I'm through with standing in line to clubs we'll never get in,
A
It's like bottom of the ninth and I'm never gonna win,
D E
This life hasn't turned out quite the way I want it to be.
E
I want a brand new house on an episode of Cribs,
A
And a bathroom I can play baseball in,
D E
And a king size tub big enough for ten plus me.
E
I'll need a credit card that's got no limit,
A
And a big black jet with a bedroom in it,
D E
Gonna join the mile-high club at thirty-seven thousand feet.
E
I want a new tour bus full of old guitars,
A
My own star on Hollywood Boulevard,
D E
Somewhere between Cher and James Dean is fine for me.
G
I'm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame,
A
I'd even cut my hair and change my name.
E
'Cause we all just want to be big rock stars,
G
And live in Hilltop Houses driven fifteen cars,
A
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap,
C D
We'll all stay skinny cause we just won't eat,
E
And we'll hang out in the coolest bars,
G
In the VIP with the movie stars,
A
Every good gold diggers gonna wind up there.
C D
Every playboy bunny with her bleach blonde hair,
G A E
Hey hey I wanna be a rock star!
G A E
Hey hey I wanna be a rock star!
E
I wanna be great like Elvis without the tassels,
A
Hire eight body guards who love to beat up assholes,
D E
Sign a couple autographs so I can eat my meals for free.
E
I'm gonna dress my ass with the latest fashion,
A
Get a front door key to the Playboy Mansion,
D E
Gonna date a centerfold that loves to blow my money for me.
G
I'm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame,
A
I'd even cut my hair and change my name.
E
'Cause we all just want to be big rock stars,
G
And live in Hilltop Houses driven fifteen cars,
A
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap,
C D
We'll all stay skinny cause we just won't eat,
E
And we'll hang out in the coolest bars,
G
In the VIP with the movie stars,
A
Every good gold diggers gonna wind up there.
C D
Every playboy bunny with her bleach blonde hair,
E
And we'll hide out in the private rooms,
G
With the latest dictionary and todays who's who,
A
They'll get you anything with that evil smile,
C D
Everybodys got a drug dealer on speed dial,
G A E
Well Hey hey I wanna be a rock star!
C
I'm gonna sing those songs that offend the censors,
G
Gonna pop my pills from a pez despenser,
C
Get washed up singers writing all my songs,
A D
Lip sync 'em every night so i won't get them wrong!
E
Well we all just want to be big rock stars,
G
And live in Hilltop Houses driven fifteen cars,
A
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap,
