(intro)
F (x4) (bass line F F C-D-F)
(verse)
[F] Who am I? Do you [Bb]recognize [F]me?
[Bb] Of course you [F]don't. I'm [Eb]nobod[F]y.
[F] I have no money. [Bb] I have no [F]name.
[Bb] I tear the [F]tickets at the [Eb]hall of [F]fame.
(chorus)
[Bb] I buy my [F]dinner at the [C]seven-e[F]leven
Eat it in the kitchen while I watch TV
I like my free time and I love my wife
[Bb] You'll find [F]my number on the [C]B-side of [Bb]life
(verse)
[F]Once I got lucky. [Bb] I had a [F]band
[Bb] We had a [F]song it got to [Eb]number [F]3
[F] Made lots of money. [Bb] Made lots of [F]friends
[Bb] Had lots of [F]pretty people [Eb]hangin' 'round [F]me
[F]Now all I want is a[Bb] place to [F]hide
[Bb] To feel [F]safe from the [Eb]chaos out[F]side
A [F]cold refrigerator,[Bb] a warm [F]bed
A [Bb]place where no [F]one will stick a [Eb]gun to my [F]head
(chorus)
[Bb] I buy my [F]dinner at the [C]seven-e[F]leven
Eat it in the kitchen while I watch TV
I like my free time and I love my wife
[Bb] We're happy [F]living on the [C]B-side of [Bb]life
(bridge)
[Eb] We had a key to the [Fsus4]city[F]
But the [Eb]rooms it did un[Dm]lock
[Gm] Were full of over-priced [Dm]portraits
En[Bb]gaged in cheap small [Am7]talk[C]
(verse)
So[F] turn out the lights,[Bb] turn up the [F]radio
[Bb] Don't know the [F]singer but I [Eb]love that [F]song
[F] I know that I'm no Ba[Bb]ryshnikov [F]baby
[Bb] But I wanna [F]dance with you [Eb]all night [F]long
(verse no lyrics - Oooh oooh etc...)
F Bb F Bb F Eb F (x2)
(chorus)
[Bb] I'll buy you [F]dinner at the [C]seven-e[F]leven
Eat it in the kitchen while we watch TV
Tonight's my birthday. Let's have a party
I'm [Bb]thirty with a [F]bullet from the [C]B-side of [Bb]life[F]
