[Intro]
BbBbEb
Stardom in Acton that's all they got
BbEb
Stardom in Acton that's all they got
BbEb
Stardom in Acton that's all they got
[Verse]
BbFAbEb
Just like the grub that wriggles to the top of the mass, I'm the first to get hooked
BbFAbEb
Just like the stub of that long cigarette full of hash, I'm the last to get booked
BbF/CEbF
But I'm capable, my love's inescapable, conquering lethargy, I've got energy
[Chorus]
BbEbBbEb
Stardom, I want a hit, want my tan, want my cash, want my innocence
BbEb
Stardom, I want a script, want my band, want my stash, want omnipotence
[Verse]
BbFAbEb
I'll go where the senescent soldier retires and shiver in south California
BbFAbEb
Watching the storms and tangled wires and rivers that meet on the corner
BbF/CEbF
Like some prostitute, handing round the loot, I am not ashamed, I will stake a claim
[Chorus]
BbEbBbEb
Stardom, born in a trunk, got my home, got my car, got stability
BbEb
Stardom, Hollywood's son, all alone, don't admire anonymity
[Bridge]
Cm7
I'm so angry that you turned me on, I didn't remain your friend too long
Cm7
I'm so angry that you turned me on, I didn't stay your friend for too long
FBbFBb
I'm so angry that you let me see, my totally futile destiny
FBbEb
I'm so angry you inter-rupted my dream, now I know that the power rests in me
[Chorus]
BbEbBbEb
Stardom, I want a hit, want my tan, want my cash, want my innocence
BbEb
Stardom, I want a script, want my band, want my stash, want omnipotence
BbEbBbEb
Stardom, born in a trunk, got my home, got my car, got stability
BbEb
Stardom, Hollywood's son, all alone, don't admire anonymity
