2010 - Teenage Dream

Chorus
D
It was 
A
just a 
E7
teenage 
A
dream
D
That I should be a 
A
rock 
E7
star
The girls were always there to scream
I was a rock star
Only life got in the way
I’m not a rock star
Fifty years have passed away
D
I can’t be 
E7
a rock 
A
star

But what if my teenage dream
Was not that far-fetched
The songs that are inside me stream
Imagination stretched
And as in my teenage dream
I see myself on stage
Filling halls at every scene
Being all the rage

Chorus

Bridge
All it takes is an attitude
Of competence and gratitude
For those that helped me on the way
And then I’m ready to sing and play

It was just a teenage dream
One I’m now fulfilling
And though it seems a fruitless scheme
Pursuit could be so thrilling
Watch the press and see it happen
Headlines screaming out my name
Soon you’ll all be there and clapping
As I finally find my fame.

Chorus
It was just a teenage dream
That I should be a rock star
The girls were always there to scream
I was a rock star
Only life got in the way
I’m not a rock star
Though fifty years have passed away
I can be a rock star
