🎸 Verse 1:
  A
After school I know the rules, do my chores in a hurry
     A
My radio, my records wait inside my sanctuary
    A
A teenage dreamer, dreaming one day I could be a star
    A
I close my door, turn on my amp, and plug in my guitar

I'm a rockstar (Rockstar)
                      D                 C            A
They say if you can dream it, you can have it so I play

Hear me play

           A               C              D               C
I'll be standing in the lights, selling shows out every night
            A              C              D
Have 'em dancing in the aisles, I'll be famous

               A                                A
Me, I smell success along with Mama's fryin' chicken
                  A                                    A
Dad storms in my room, unplugs my amp and starts his bitchin'
                A                                        A
But to their sorrow, I'll just do the same dang thing tomorrow
