[Intro]
A A/B A A/B
[Verse 1]
A A/B Popcorn, soda, box of Raisinets A A/B Velvet-cushioned seats and soft armrests A A/B Best seat in my favorite movie house A A/B Start my dreaming as the lights go out D A Bm Up on the silver screen, I picture me D A Bm E Living out my passions, hopes, and fantasies.
[Chorus 1]
A I want to be the girl in the movies Bm The one with the glint in her eyes A The girl that seldom loses Bm Beautiful, with grace and style A Acting out her story Bm Standing in her glory A Happy ever after Bm A I want to be the girl in the movies.
[Verse 2]
A A/B Wish I had a nickel for each dime I've spent A A/B Watching others live their lives with confidence A A/B Here's a preview of some things to come A A/B It's not too late for me to be someone D A Bm I can't keep living in their make-believe D A Bm E Coming attractions will be starring me.
[Chorus]
A I want to be the girl in the movies Bm The one with the stars in her eyes (In her eyes) A She gets the roles she chooses Bm She can laugh or she can cry A Acting in her story Bm Standing in her glory A Always happy endings Bm A I want to be the girl in the movies.
[Bridge]
D It's time I show the world just what I'm about A I'm steppin' up and I'm steppin' out D I'm feelin' bold and I'm feelin' proud E I want to be that girl
[Chorus]
A A/B I want to be the girl in the movies Hmm hmm A A/B I want to be the girl in the movies Hmm hmm hmm
[Outro]
A Gonna stand up and I'm gonna matter A/B 'Cause I've had enough of my dreams being shattered A And I've had enough of my tears being splattered A/B I've already been that girl. A Oh, I want to be (I want to be) I want to be (I want to be) A/B I want to be the girl in the movies A I want to be (I want to be) Hey look at me (Hey look at me) A/B I want to be the girl in the movies A I want to shine (I want to shine) I want to shine (I'm gonna shine) A/B It's my time and I want to shine A I want to be happy, I want to be free A/B A Just like the girl in the movies.
