Am F Dm G Am F G G
Sha la la la la la la la uh huh...
---VERSE 1---
Am F Dm G
I was down at the New Amsterdam staring at this yellow-haired girl
Am F G
Mr. Jones strikes up a conversation with this black-haired flamenco dancer (you know)
Am F Dm G
She dances while his father plays guitar. She's suddenly beautiful
Am F G
We all want something beautiful, man I wish I was beautiful
---VERSE 3---
Am F
So come dance this silence down through the morning
Dm G Am F G
Sha la la la la la la la yeah uh huh.. .
Am F Dm G
Cut up, Maria! Show me some of them Spanish dances
Am F G
Pass me a bottle, Mr. Jones
Am F Dm G
Believe in me. Help me believe in anything
Am F G
'Cause I want to be someone who believes
---CHORUS---
C F G
Mr. Jones and me tell each other fairy tales
C F
And we stare at the beautiful women
G
"She's looking at you. Ah, no, no, she's looking at me."
C F G
Smiling in the bright lights, come in through in stereo
C F G
When everybody loves you, you can never be lonely
---VERSE 4---
Am F Dm G
I will paint my picture. Paint myself in blue and red and black and gray
Am F G
All of the beautiful colors are very, very meaningful
Am F Dm G Am
(you know) Gray is my favorite color I felt so symbolic yesterday
Am F G C
If I knew Picasso I would buy myself a gray guitar and play
---CHORUS---
C F G
Mr. Jones and me look into the future
C F
Yeah, we stare at the beautiful women
G C
"She's looking at you. Uh, I don't think so. She's looking at me."
C F G
Standing in the spotlight I bought myself a gray guitar
C F G Am
When everybody loves me, I will never be lone--ly
---INTERLUDE---
Fmaj7
I will never be lonely, said
Am Em G
I'm never gonna be lone---ly
Am Fmaj7
I want to be a lion. Everybody wants to pass as cats
Am G
We all want to be big, big stars, yeah but we got different reasons for that.
Am Fmaj7
Believe in me because I don't believe in anything
Am G
And I want to be someone to believe, to believe, to believe.
---CHORUS---
C F G
Mr. Jones and me stumbling through the barrio
C F
Yeah we stare at the beautiful women
G
"She's perfect for you, man, there's got to be somebody for me."
C Fmaj7
I want to be Bob Dylan
G
Mr. Jones wishes he was someone just a little more funky
C Fmaj7 G
When everybody loves you, ah son, that's just about as funky as you can be.
---ENDING---
C Fmaj7 G
Mr. Jones and me staring at the video
C Fmaj G
When I look at the television, I want to see me staring right back at me.
C Fmaj7 G
We all want to be big stars, but we don't know why, and we don't know how.
C Fmaj7 G
But when everybody loves me, I'm going to be just about as happy as I can be.
C Fmaj7 G
Mr. Jones and me, we're gonna be big stars.....
