[Intro]
[C] [-] [Am] [-] [C] [-] [Am]
[Couplet]
[C]Johnny wanna be a big star[E]
Get on [Am]stage and play the guitar[F]
Make a little mo[C]ney, buy a fancy car[E]
Big old [Am]house and an al[F]ligator
Just to ma[C]tch with them alligator sh[E]oes
He's a rich ma[Am]n so he's no longer singing th[F]e blues
[D]He's singing songs about material things
And [G]platinum rings and watches that go bling
But, [C]diamonds don'[E]t bling in the dark
He a [Am]star now, but he ain't [F]singing from the heart
[C]Sooner or later he's just gonna fal[E]l apart
Coz his fan[Am]s can't relate to his new foun[F]d art
[C]He ain't doing what he did fr[E]om the start
[Am]And that's foolish cause and feeling it fa[F]r (????)
[D]He decided to live his life shallow
[G]Passion is love for material
[Cborus]
And its [C]gone... gone... [G]going...
[Am]Gone... everything[F] gone... give a damn...
[C]Gone be [G]the birds when they d[Am]on't want to sing..[F].
Gone [C]peop[G]le... [Am]up awkward with their th[F]ings... gone.[C] [-] [Am] [-] [C] [-] [Am]
[C]Yo[-]u [E]se[-]e [Am]you[-]rs[F]elf in the mirror
And you feel safe coz it looks familiar
But you afraid to open up your soul
Coz you don't really know, don't really know
Who is, the person that's deep within
Coz you are content with just being the naĆ¯ve brown man
[D]An[-]d [G]you fail to see that it's trivial
Insignificant, you addicted to material
[C]I'[-]ve[E] s[-]ee[Am]n y[-]ou[F]r kind before
You're the type that thinks souls is sold in a store
Packaged up with inscent sticks
With them vegetarian meals
To you that's righteous
You're fiction like books
You need to go out to life and look
[D]Co[-]z.[G].. what happens when they take your material
You already sold your soul and its...
[Cborus]
And its [C]gone... gone... [G]going...
Go[Am]ne... everything[F] gone... give a damn...
[C]Gone be t[G]he birds when they d[Am]on't want to sing..[F].
Gone [C]peop[G]le... up [Am]awkward with their [F]things... gone.[C] [-] [Am] [-] [C] [-] [Am]
[Cborus]
[C]Yo[-]u [E]sa[-]y [Am]tha[-]t [F]time is money and money is time
So you got mind in your money and your money on your mind
But what about... that crime that you did to get paid
And what about... that bid, you can't take it to your brain
Why you on about those shoes you'll wear today
[D]Th[-]ey[G]'ll do no good on the bridges you've walked along the way
[C]Al[-]l [C]th[-]at[E] money that you got gonna be gone
[Am]Tha[-]t [Am]gea[-]r [F]that you rock gonna be gone
[C]Th[-]e [C]ho[-]us[E]e up on the hill gonna be gone
[Am]The[-] g[Am]old[-] b[F]urst on your grill gonna be gone
[C]Th[-]e [C]ic[-]e [E]on your wrist gonna be gone
[Am]Tha[-]t [Am]nic[-]e [F]little Miss gonna be gone
[D]Th[-]at[G] whip that you roll gonna be gone
And what's worst is your soul will be gone
[Cborus]
And its [C]gone... gone... [G]going...
Go[Am]ne... everything[F] gone... give a damn...
G[C]one be th[G]e birds when they d[Am]on't want to sing..[F].
