Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Introduction

x 2

Verse 1

Well I sure am tired of these coffee house gigs

Cause there ain't no money and there ain't no chicks

It's gettin harder and harder to get my kicks

so I bought a little ticket to Nashville

Cause I wanna see my name up in neon lights

Drink pink champagne and party every night

All them lucky mothers up there livin' the life

Man, I gotta get my ass to Nashville

Chorus 1

‘Cause I wanna be a country star and take it all way to far

Drinkin' free in every bar just like Bocephus

I think it'd be a cryin' shame not to have my own airplane

I wanna go up in flames, me and my guitar

Man, I wanna be a country star

Instrumental

Verse 2

Well I got a drinkin' problem so I'll fit right in

Gonna sing me some hits and get some famous friends

I'll be ridin' shotgun with Kenny, Faith, and Tim

And I wonder how they lived without me

I'll get "Big & Rich" rich and build a big ol' house

With a big ol' fence to keep the riff-raff out

Call my old girlfriends say "how ya like me now"

C'mon baby tell me what ya love about me

Chorus 2

I wanna be a country star and take it all way to far

Breakin' all the young girls hearts just like Keith Urban

Man I'm thinkin' that sure sounds fun

Rockin' out with Brooks and Dunn

All the way to number one, me and my guitar

Man I wanna be a country star

Bridge

Playin' golf with Vince and Willie

Hangin' out with Carrie Under-neath those big spotlights

Solo

Oh, yeah

Yeah, yeah

Chorus 2

I wanna be a country star, take it all way to far

Breakin' all the young girls hearts just like Keith Urban

Oh, man, I think it sure sounds fun

Rockin' out with Brooks and Dunn

All the way to number one, me and my guitar

Man I wanna be a country star

Outro

Country star Yeah!

Oh
