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!
