[Intro 1]
[C][D][F]
[G][C][D]
[F][G]

[Verse 1]
You're [C]a
spaceman in Tulsa
So you cover it up in clown [Am]white[C]
All these eleg[Am]ant boys
make [C]such delicate [F]toys
And [G]they know it
[Am]He says, "I [G]know you [C]wanna
believe in something
But if you [G]could [Am]just see all
of the people in me"
Then [F]the shadows descend
from his eyes to his hands
Down to his [G]naked all
American knees

[Verse 2]
Doesn't [F]anybody wanna be
[G]a rock and roll queen?
Dress yourself up in a [C]diamond
[D]tiara[F]
Swishy little rake, he says, [G]"Man,
I'm gonna make 'em in[C]sane"
I'm a paink[D]iller

[Verse 3]
and I'm a caterpillar
[F]They can't break you[G],
man (yeah, they can't break you apart)
[C]Another well- nigh butter[D]fly found
on a bus out [F]of town
Turning [G]into a motherfucking rock

[Interlude 1]
and roll star
[C][D][G][F][C][G][C]

[Verse 4]
Ally [G]says she's one in a million
Other [Am]people [G]tend to agree
[C]From her fishnet luck to[G]
her plat[F]form Chucks
She's [G]a fading Miss [Am]American [G]dream
But [C]her daddy couldn't
keep his distance
[G]She says, "You can[Am]'t keep
him away if you try"
The sad[F]dest mistakes are
the ones that we make
Wishing [G]away what's right
in front of our eyes

[Verse 5]
Doesn't [G]any[F]body wanna be
[G]a rock and roll queen?
Leave 'em laughing when
you wanna die
[F]Crazy little dreamer says, "Man,
[G]I can't believe I'm still a[C]live"
I'm a paink[D]iller

[Verse 6]
and I'm a caterpil[G]lar
[F]They can't break you[G],
man (yeah, they can't [C]break you apart)
Another well- nigh butter[D]fly found
on a bus out [F]of town
Turning [C]into [G]a motherfucking
[C]rock and [G]roll star
[C][G][C]

[Verse 7]
[F][C]
[G]Bobby, he's such a rock and roller
Says, "Everybody's
[Am]somebody I [G]used to [F]know
[G]Man, I was the toast of the town
[F]Back when everyone knew where to [G]go
I was [C]a spaceman in Tulsa
[G]But if [Am]you could see behind my eyes
I'm [G]just [F]an empty smile
And a song I don't even know
that [G]I'm singing"

[Verse 8]
[G]
Doesn't [F]anybody wanna [G]be
a rock and roll queen?
Light your rocket and burn
right out of [D]town[G]
[D]Cra[G]zy little fucker says, "Man,
I guess I'll see you [C]around"
And I'm [D]a painkiller, super

[Verse 9]
fly caterpil[F]lar
They can't break you,
[C]man (yeah, they can't break you apart)
Another well- nigh butter[D]fly found
on a bus out [G]of town[F]
Turning [G]into a motherfuck
[C]ing rock and roll star
I'm a paink[D]iller,

[Verse 10]
yeah, yeah, yeah, [F]yeah
Well, [G]I'm a motherfucking
rock and roll [C]star
I'm a paink[D]iller and I'm a caterpil[F]lar
I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm,
[C]I'm a mother[G]fucking rock and roll [C]star
[D]Yeah, [G]yea[F]h
I'm [G]a motherfucking rock
and roll [C]star[G]
[D]Yeah, yeah
[F]I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm,
I'm a mother[G]fucking [C]rock and roll star
