Am F G  G
 
Am                F                      Dm            G
So you wanna be a rock n roll star, well listen now to what I say
Am          F                   G                                  Am  F
Just get an electric guitar and take some time and learn how to play
G
Just learn how to play
 
Am F G  G
 
[Verse 1]
 
      Am                    F
Well, I was down at the New Amsterdam
    Dm               G
Just staring at this yellow-haired girl
    Am                        F            G            G
Mr. Jones strikes up a conversation with a black-haired flamenco dancer
         Am                   F              Dm
You know she dances while his father plays guitar.  
               G
She's suddenly beautiful, and we all want something beautiful
       Am         F      G        G
Man, I wish I was beautiful   Lalalala
 
 
   Am        F
Oh, Cut up, Maria!  
         Dm                    G
Come on, show me some of them Spanish dances
    Am          F           G        G
And pass me the bottle, Mr. Jones
  Am           F   Dm                  G
Oh, believe in me, come on, help me believe in anything
       Am         F             G         G
'Cause I wanna be someone who believes
 
 
[Chorus 1]
 
C    F         G                 G
Mr. Jones and me tell each other fairytales
      C                       F
And we stare at the beautiful women
       G                G
"She's looking at you, nananana, she's looking at me"
C              F             G                  G
Standing in this bright light coming through in stereo
     C           F       G                    G
When everybody loves you, you should never be lonely
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
Am                            F
Well, I wanna paint myself a picture 
      Dm                G
I wanna paint myself in blue and red and black and gray
Am                  F                     G          G
  All the beautiful colors are very, very meaningful
           Am                      F    Dm          G
Yeah, you know gray? It's my favorite color. I just get so confused every day
Am            F      G                   G
But if I knew Picasso, I would buy myself a gray guitar and play
 
[Chorus 2]
 
C    F        G                G
Mr. Jones and me look into the future
  C                       F
We stare at the beautiful women
            G                G
"Man, she's looking at you, man, I don't think so she's looking at me"
C               F         G
Standing in the spotlight 
G
Look at me I, I got myself this gray guitar
          C           F      G                G         Am
Man, when everybody loves me, I hope I never get lonely    Lalalala
 
[Verse 3]
 
Am
Yeah, I wanna be a lion
                F
I know, I know, everybody wants to pass as cats
Am
  We All wanna be big, big stars
               G
Yeah, but then we get second thoughts about that
  Am                      F
So  Believe in me, Man, I don't believe in anything
    Am                                G
And I don't wanna be to be someone to believe, you should not believe in me
 
[Chorus 3]
 
       C   F          G                       G
'Cause Mr. Jones and me, we just went stumbling through the barrio
   C                          F
We stare at all the beautiful women
            G                    G
"Man, she's perfect for you" There's got to be someone for me
 
C               F
 I wanna be Bob Dylan
   G                            G
Mr. Jones wishes he was someone just a little more funky
                C               F
Well, man, when everybody loves you 
G
Sometimes that's just about as fucked up as you can be 
 
     C          F                 G               G
Well, can't you hear me cause I'm screaming
 C                     F      G
But I did not go outside yesterday
C               F             G               G
Oh, don't wake me cause I was dreaming
   C                F            G                         G
And I might just stay inside again today
       C   F             G
'Cause Mr. Jones and me, we don't see each other much anymore...
