Lyrics

Some (G)bod y once (D)told me the world is gon na (C)roll me, I (G)ain’t the sharp est (D)tool in the shed.

She was (G)look in’ kind of (D)dumb with her fin ger and her (C)thumb in the shape of an “L” on her fore head.

Well, the (G)years start com in’ and they (D)don’t stop com in’.

(Am)Fed to the rules and I (C)hit the ground run nin’.

(G)Did n’t make sense not to (D)live for fun; your (Am)brain gets smart, but your (C)head gets dumb.

(G)So much to do, so much to see, so what’s (Am)wrong with tak in’ the (C)back streets?

You’ll (G)nev er know if you don’t (D)go.

You’ll (Am)nev er shine if you don’t (C)glow.

(G)Hey now, you’re an (C)all star; get your (C#)game on, go play.

(G)Hey now, you’re a (C)rock star; get the (C#)show on, get paid.

And (G)all that (C)glit ters is gold.

(C)On ly shoot in’ (F)stars

break the mold.

It’s a (G)cool place and they (D)say it gets cold er.

You’re (Am)bun dled up now; wait (C)till you get old er.

But the (G)me te or men beg to (D)dif fer, judg ing by the (Am)hole in the sat el lite (C)pic ture.

The ice we (G)skate is get tin’ pret ty (D)thin.

The wa ter’s get tin’ (Am)warm, so you might as well (C)swim.

My world’s on (G)fi re; how ’bout (D)yours?

That’s the way I (Am)like it and I’ll nev er get (C)bored.

(G)Hey now, you’re an (C)all star; get your (C#)game on, go play.

(G)Hey now, you’re a (C)rock star; get the (C#)show on, get paid.

And (G)all that (C)glit ters is gold.

(C)On ly shoot in’ (F)stars...

Some (D)bod y once asked could I spare some change for gas, “I need to (D)get my self a way from this place.”

I said, (G)“Yep, what a con (D)cept!

I could (C)use a lit tle fuel my self and we could (D)all use a lit tle change.”

Well, the (G)years start com in’ and they (C)don’t stop com in’.

(C#)Fed to the rules and I (C)hit the ground run nin’.

(G)Did n’t make sense not to (C)live for fun; your (C#)brain gets smart, but your (C)head gets dumb.

(G)So much to do, so much to see, so what’s (C#)wrong with tak in’ the (C)back streets?

You’ll (G)nev er know if you don’t (C)go.

(Go!) You’ll (C#)nev er shine if you don’t (C)glow.

(C)stars break the mold.

And (G)all that (C)glit ters is gold.

(C)On ly shoot in’ (F)stars break the mold.
