    G    C    F    G

                 G
I'm through with standing in line to clubs we'll never get in
              C
It's like the bottom of the ninth and I'm never gonna win
     F                                                 G
This life hasn't turned out quite the way I want it to be

         G
I want a brand new house on an episode of Cribs
      C 
And a bathroom I can play baseball in
      F					    G	
And a king size tub big enough for ten plus me

            G
I'll need a credit card that's got no limit
      C    
And a big black jet with a bedroom in it
      F 				G
Gonna join the mile high club at 37,000 feet

         G
I want a new tour bus full of old guitars
       C
My own star on Hollywood Boulevard
    F                                             G
Somewhere between Cher and James Dean is fine for me

    G    A#   C    D#   F

          G
'Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars
            A#
And live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
    C 
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
      D#                        F
We'll all stay skinny 'cause we just won't eat
          G 
And we'll hang out in the coolest bars
       A#
In the VIP with the movie stars
      C 
Every good gold digger's gonna wind up there
      D#                     F
Every Playboy bunny with her bleach blond hair

Hey, hey, I wanna be a rockstar

    D#    A#    C     F

          D#
I'm gonna sing those songs that offend the censors
      A#
Gonna pop my pills from a pez dispenser
         D#
I'll get washed-up singers writing all my songs
    C                              F~
Lip sync em every night so I don't get 'em wrong


          G
'Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars

And live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars

      D#                     F
Every Playboy bunny with her bleach blond hair

          G
And we'll hide out in the private rooms
            A#
With the latest dictionary and today's who's who
    C 
They'll get you anything with that evil smile
      D#                        F
Everybody's got a drug dealer on speed dial and

A#   C                     G
Hey, hey, I wanna be a rockstar
A#   C                     G
Hey, hey, I wanna be a rawkstar
