5 Minutes of Fame Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
It was [Am]a common story,
yeah who cares that I changed?
Why are people freaking out?
[Dm]Maybe I gave [F]in more than I should,
[C]maybe I sold [G]out
But the [Am]truth was I was really getting
nowhere until I woke up and found
That [Dm]morals can't take [Em]you u[F]p to
the top your [C]standards pull you [G]down

[Verse 2]
[C]Was it worth it [Dm]what I gave [C]away[F]
For five [Dm]minutes of [G]fame
[C]Minutes over [Dm]no one knows
[C]my [F]nam[Dm]e[G][Am]
I always said the thing that meant the
most to me was my very integrity
[Dm]Who would have thought I[Em]'d e[F]ver
trade it all for [C]popular[G]ity
'Cause the [Am]truth is though I've made
it to the top I'm anything but satisfied
I gave up the [Dm]only [Am]thing[F] that
mattered [C]for this empty [G]life

[Verse 3]
[C]This[Dm][C][F][Dm][G]
[C][Dm][C][F]
[Dm]time[G] I'm[Em] saying no[F]
[Em]This world will know what I be[F]lieve in[C]
I've [Em]lost enough to [F]know
That life's too [Dm]short to [C]waste
[Bm]it[Am][C][Dm][C][F]
Or [Am]my mi[Bb]nute[Dm] of[Am][C][Dm]
[C]fam[F]e[Dm]

[Outro 1]
[G][F][Dm][Dm][Am]
