I need an a larm sys tem in my house, so I know when peo ple are creep in’ a bout.

There’s things they (A5)all wan na know.

I’m par a noid of all the (A5)peo ple I meet.

Why are they (A5)talk ing to me?

And why can’t (D5)an y one see I just wan na (Am)live.

Don’t real ly care (G)a bout the (Am)things that they say,

I (G)just wan na (Am)live,

(G)just wan na live, just wan na live, (G)just wan na live, just wan na live, just wan na live.

I rock a law suit when I’m go in’ to court, a white suit when I’m get tin’ di vorced, a black suit at the fu ner al home, and my birth day (A5)suit when I’m home a lone.

Talk in’ on the phone, got an in ter view with the Rol ling Stone, they’re say ing (A5)“Now you’re rich, and (A5)now you’re fa mous.

(A5)Fake ass girls all (A5)know your name,” and, (A5)“Life styles of the rich and fa mous, (A5)your first hit.

Are you a shamed (A5)of the life, of the life, (A5)of the life we’re liv in’?" I just wan na (Am)live.

Don’t real ly care (G)a bout the (Am)things that they say,

don’t real ly care (G)a bout what (Am)hap pens to me.

I (G)just wan na (Am)live,

(A5)Stop your mes sin’ a round, boy, (A5)bet ter think of your fu ture.

(A5)Bet ter make some good friends, boy, said (A5)ev ’ry one of my (A5)teach ers.
