[Verse]
B F# C#m E
Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me
B F# C#m E
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
B F# C#m E
She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb
B F# C#m E
In the shape of an "L" on her forehead
[Verse]
B F#
Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming
C#m E
Back to the rule and I hit the ground running
B F#
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
C#m E
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
[Pre-chorus]
B F#
So much to do so much to see
C#m E
So what's wrong with taking the back streets
B F#
You'll never know if you don't go
C#m E
You'll never shine if you don't glow
[Chorus]
B F# C#m E
Hey now you're an All Star get your game on, go play
B F# C#m E
Hey now you're a Rock Star get the show on get paid
B F# C#m E
And all that glitters is gold
B A E
Only shooting stars break the mold
[Verse]
B F#
It's a cool place and they say it gets colder
C#m E
You're bundled up now but wait 'til you get older
B F#
But the meteor men beg to differ
C#m E
Judging by the hole in the satellite picture
[Verse]
B F#
The ice we skate is getting pretty thin
C#m E
The waters getting warm so you might as well swim
B F#
My world's on fire how about yours
C#m E
That's the way I like it and I never get bored
[Chorus]
B F# C#m E
Hey now you're an All Star get your game on, go play
B F# C#m E
Hey now you're a Rock Star get the show on get paid
B F# C#m E
And all that glitters is gold
B A E
Only shooting stars break the mold
[Solo]
B F# C#m E 4x
[Chorus]
B F# C#m E
Hey now you're an All Star get your game on, go play
B F# C#m E
Hey now you're a Rock Star get the show on get paid
B F# C#m E
And all that glitters is gold
B A
Only shooting stars
[Verse]
B F# C#m E
Somebody once asked could I spare some change for gas
B F# C#m E
I need to get myself away from this place
B F#
I said yep what a concept
C#m E
I could use a little fuel myself
B F# C#m~
And we could all use a little change
[Verse]
B F#
Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming
C#m E
Back to the rule and I hit the ground running
B F#
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
