A simple continuous chord round of C G7 G G7

C G G7 G
Saw your name in the paper
C G G7 G
It was quite a blow
C G G7 G
Your mother should be happy
C G G7 G
They said you stole the show

Always did have talent
Always did work hard
Always new you would prefer
a place in the front yard

Maybe you'll get famous
Maybe you'll get rich
It's alright don't be afraid
Lots of us have got the itch

Lots of us really need it
We really need it bad
Lots of us are desperate
Lots of us are sad

Take the money take the love
Take all the people give
The people all are desperate
Somehow you help them live

The people will destroy you
That love will turn to hate
But right now you must scratch it
That itch that's grown so great

Make yourself a hero
It's heroes people crave
Make yourself a master
But know you are a slave

Saw you name in the paper
Saw you name in the paper
Saw you name in the paper
Ah Haaaaaah
