[Verse 1]
  A
After school I know the rules, do my chores in a hurry

     A
My radio, my records wait inside my sanctuary

    A
A teenage dreamer, dreaming one day I could be a star

    A
I close my door, turn on my amp, and plug in my guitar
[Chorus]
        D
I'm a rockstar (Rockstar)

                      D                 C            A
They say if you can dream it, you can have it so I play

         A
Hear me play

Rockstar (Rockstar)

    D                                C                A
I stand before my mirror, play and sing and dream, someday

           A               C              D               C
I'll be standing in the lights, selling shows out every night

            A              C              D
Have 'em dancing in the aisles, I'll be famous

I'll be a rockstar

"Stop that god-awful music," Mama's yelling from the kitchen

               A                                A
Me, I smell success along with Mama's fryin' chicken

                  A                                    A
Dad storms in my room, unplugs my amp and starts his bitchin'

                A                                        A
But to their sorrow, I'll just do the same dang thing tomorrow

I'm a rockstar (Rockstar)

Squalling at the top of your lungs and twangin' on that old damned guitar, it ain't gon' get you nowhere

  D                                  A                 G                     D
Honey, you need to get out of this house, make some friends, do something ordinary

                          A
Well, I don't wanna be ordinary

I wanna be a Rockstar (rockstar)

Don't you ever give up on your dreams

     D
No matter how far-fetched they seem

      C                    D
They may not be all that extreme

        E                       E                     E
And I dreamed (I dreamed), I dreamed (I dreamed), I dreamed (I dreamed)

I dreamed I was a rockstar
[Chorus]
                      D                 C               A
They say if you can dream it, you can have it so just play

                   A              C              D               C
That you'll be standing in the lights, selling shows out every night

Rockstar (rockstar)

        D                             C              A
I'm standing on the stage now and I thank God every day

            A             C                     D                C
My folks dancin' in the aisle, screaming out, "Hey, that's our child"

       A                       C                D
Jerry Reed would say, "Yeah, right," now they claim me

                                D
They always thought I'd be a rockstar
