[G] [C] [F] [G]
I'm through with [G]standing in line to clubs we'll never get in
It's like the [C]bottom of the ninth and I'm never gonna win
This [F]life hasn't turned out quite the way I want it to [G]be
I want a [G]brand new house on an episode of Cribs
And a [C]bathroom I can play baseball in
And a [F]king size tub big enough for ten plus [G]me
I'll need a [G]credit card that's got no limit
And a [C]big black jet with a bedroom in it
Gonna [F]join the mile high club at 37,000 [G]feet
I want a [G]new tour bus full of old guitars
My own [C]star on Hollywood Boulevard
Some[F]where between Cher and James Dean is fine for [G]me

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