[prompt]
[verse]
I'm through with standing in line to clubs I'll never get in,
G
It's like the bottom of the ninth and I'm never gonna win.
C
This life hasn't turned out quite the way I want it to be.
F
(Tell me what you want)
G
I want a brand new house on an episode of Cribs,
(G)
and a bathroom I can play baseball in
C
And a king size tub big enough for ten plus me.
F
(So what you need?)
G
[verse 2]
I'll need a, a credit card that's got no limit
(G)
And a big black jet with a bedroom in it
C
Gonna join the mile high club at thirty-seven thousand feet
F
(Been there, I done that)
G
I want a new tour bus full of old guitars,
(G)
my own star on Hollywood Boulevard
C
Somewhere between Cher and James Dean is fine for me
F
(So how you gonna do it?)
G
I'm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame
Bb
I'd even cut my hair and change my name
C
[Chorus]
'Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars
G
And live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
Bb
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
C
We'll all stay skinny 'cause we just won't eat
Eb F
And we'll hang out in the coolest bars
G
In the V. I. P. with the movie stars
Bb
Ev'ry good gold digger's gonna wind up there
C
Every Playboy bunny With her bleach blond hair
Eb F
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
Bb C G
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
Bb C G
[verse]
I wanna be great like Elvis without the tassels
G
Hire eight body guards that love to beat up assholes
C
Sign a couple autographs so I can eat my meals for free
F
(I'll have the quesadilla, ha, ha)
G
I'm gonna dress my ass With the latest fashion
(G)
Get a front door key to the Playboy mansion
C
Gonna date a centerfold that loves to blow my money for me
F
(So how you gonna do it?)
G
I'm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame
Bb
I'd even cut my hair and change my name
C
[Chorus]
'Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars
G
And live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
Bb
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
C
We'll all stay skinny 'cause we just won't eat
Eb F
And we'll hang out in the coolest bars
G
In the V. I. P. with the movie stars
Bb
Ev'ry good gold digger's gonna wind up there
C
Every Playboy bunny With her bleach blond hair
Eb F
And we'll hide out in the private rooms
G
With the latest dictionary and today's who's who
Bb
They'll get you anything with that evil smile
C
Everybody's got a drug dealer on speed dial, well
Eb
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
Bb C G
[Bridge]
I'm gonna sing those songs that offend the censors
Eb
Gonna pop my pills from a Pez dispenser
Bb
Get washed-up singers writing all my songs.
Eb
Lip sync 'em every night so I don't get 'em wrong
C F
[Chorus]
'Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars
G
And live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
Bb
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
C
We'll all stay skinny 'cause we just won't eat
Eb F
And we'll hang out in the coolest bars
G
In the V. I. P. with the movie stars
Bb
Ev'ry good gold digger's gonna wind up there
C
Every Playboy bunny With her bleach blond hair
Eb F
And we'll hide out in the private rooms
G
With the latest dictionary and today's who's who
Bb
They'll get you anything with that evil smile
C
Everybody's got a drug dealer on speed dial, well
Eb
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
Bb C G
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
