Selection chords: Katie Paterson

                 G
Iʼm through with standing in line to clubs weʼll never get in,
          C
Itʼs like bottom of the ninth and Iʼm never gonna win,
     F
This life hasnʼt turned out quite the way I want it to be.
         G
(Tell me what ya want)

                 G
I want a brand new house on an episode of Cribs,
          C
And a bathroom I can play baseball in,
     F
And a king size tub big enough for ten plus me.
         G
(Yeah, so what you need?)

         G
Iʼll need a credit card thatʼs got no limit,
          C
And a big black jet with a bedroom in it,
     F
Gonna join the mile-high club at thirty-seven thousand feet.
         G
(Been there done that)

         G
I want a new tour bus full of old guitars,
          C
My own star on Hollywood Boulevard,
     F
Somewhere between Cher and James Dean is fine for me.
         G
(so how ya gonna do it?)

          Bb
Iʼm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame,
         C
Iʼd even cut my hair and change my name.

Chorus:
	          G
	ʼCause we all just want to be big Rockstars,
	            Bb
	And live in Hilltop Houses driven fifteen cars,
	    C
	The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap,
	      Eb                       F
	Weʼll all stay skinny cause we just wonʼt eat,
	
	          G
	And weʼll hang out in the coolest bars,
	            Bb
	In the VIP with the movie stars,
	    C
	Every good gold diggers gonna wind up there.
	      Eb                       F
	Every playboy bunny with her bleach blonde hair,
	Bb      C                 G	
	Hey hey I wanna be a Rockstar!
	Bb      C                 G	
	Hey hey I wanna be a Rockstar!


                 G
I wanna be great like Elvis without the tassels,
          C
Hire eight body guards who love to beat up assholes,
     F
Sign a couple autographs so I can eat my meals for free
                 G
(Iʼll have a quesadilla ha ha)

                 G
Iʼm gonna dress my ass with the latest fashion,
          C
Get a front door key to the Playboy Mansion,
     F
Gonna date a centerfold that loves to blow my money for me.
                 G
(So how ya gonna do it?)

          Bb
Iʼm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame,
         C
Iʼd even cut my hair and change my name.

          Eb

      Bb
Gonna pop my pills from a pez despenser,
    Eb
Get washed up singers writing all my songs,
    C                              F
Lip sync ʼem everynight so I wonʼt get them wrong!
