I Want To Be A Child Star chords

[VERSE 1]
[E]Every night I lie awake
[B]Dreaming of my big break
[C#m]I just gotta act and dance and sing
'Cause I [A]only ever [B7]wanted one [B]thing

[CHORUS]
I wanna be a [E]pre-teen [B]Hollywood [C#m]trainwreck [A] [B]
A [E]cautio[B]nary [C#m]tale [A] [B]
I want the [G#m]kind of fame
That'll [F#m]warp my brain
And e[A]ventually land me in [B]jail

I want to sue my [E]parents for e[B]manci[C#m]pation [A] [B]
After [E]they get caught s[B]tealing[C#m] from me [A] [B]
I want to be [G#m]on the set
Of The [F#m]Walking Dead
When I [A]lose my virgin[B]ity

I want to be a c[E]hild star
It's [B]gonna be [A]bad
[E]Child star
It's [B]gonna be [A]sad
Oh, [B]yeah

[VERSE 2]
[E]Childhood is overrated
I'm [B]ready for mine to end
I want to have [C#m]agents and assistants
[A]Instead of actual [B]friends

I'll be [E]abusive and emotionally stunted
But [B]everyone will tolerate me
They'll [C#m]have no choice

Because my face and my voice
Will make them [A]all so much [B7]money [B]

[CHORUS]
I want to have a [E]teenage [B]Hollywood [C#m]meltdown [A] [B]
Be a [E]pop-culture [B]casual[C#m]ty [A] [B]
I want a [G#m]bunch of addictions
To [F#m]illegal prescriptions
And [A]completely lose touch with [B]reality

I want to [E]squander every[B]thing I've [C#m]worked for [A] [B]
And [E]spiral [B]out of [C#m]control [A] [B]
I want to wake [G#m]up in Van Nuys
With a [F#m]bunch of sketchy guys
I've [A]never even met be[B]fore

I want to be a [E]child star
[B]Who are you [A]guys?
[E]Child star
[B]Can I have [A]some more money?

[BRIDGE]
[B]Oh baby, I've hit rock bottom. I can't live like this. It's time to get my act together.

[C#7]Re-focus on my [C#]passion

[CHORUS]
I want to be a [F#]desperate [C#]Hollywood [D#m]has-been[B] [C#]
A [F#]classic "[C#]Where are they [D#m]now?" [B] [C#]
I'll try to [A#m]clean up my act
And get my [G#m]agent back
And [B]salvage my rep[C#]utation somehow

I'll do a [F#]lot of com[C#]munity [D#m]service[B] [C#]
And a[F#]pologize to [C#]Meryl [D#m]Streep [B] [C#]
I want to be that [A#m]former child star
That you [G#m]see in bars
And say, [B]"Hey, there's that [C#]bloated, bankrupt Hollywood [F#]creep!"

[F#]Child star!
