Intro 1
(G major) (E minor) (C major) (G major) (D major)
Verse 1
(G major) You hear a song and it's not like
any song you've ever heard before
(E minor) Think, "What is this, who is that?"
And you bust it down to the record (C major) store
And you buy the album of this song
Take it home and listen to
it all night (G major) long
Until the morning, (D major) a dream is born and
You (G major) wake up on a mission
to buy that beat up
Gibson hanging in the shop
(E minor) Cutting yards, selling baseball cards,
whatever it takes till you (C major) drop
A handful of crumpled up dollar
bills on the counter
And you (G major) play that thing until
your fingers (D major) bleed
Where the strings cut ya (C major)
But you can't put it down (G major)
(D major) Ain't no (G major) rest for the rock stars
Ain't no sleep (E minor) for the kids with guitars
You can (C major) kill the lights and the
amplifiers
But dreams (G major) don't care if you're tired (D major)
Ain't no turning (G major) off the warning
'Cause we are (E minor) high on
and we're haunted
By the mu (C major) sic in our bloodshot hearts
There ain't no (G major) rest,
no rest (D major) for the rock stars
(G major) You see that open mic night advertised
on the marquee down the road
(E minor) You show up,
sign up with a lump in your throat
And a song you just wrote
(C major) Throwing up in the bathroom stall,
thinking hard about backing out
(G major) But they call your name and it's way
too late (D major) for stage fright now (G major)
Hands shaking, so is your voice,
fumbling through the chord changes (E minor)
But about half way through the song
fear starts to feel like famous
(C major) And you taste that rush,
that "born to do this" buzz
And you (G major) try to shut your eyes after
the show (D major) in your bed but (C major)
The adrenaline won't let
you 'cause (D major)
Ain't no (G major) rest for the rock stars
Ain't no (E minor) sleep for the kids with guitars
You can (C major) kill the lights and the amplifiers
But (G major) dreams don't care if you're tired (D major)
Ain't no (G major) turning off the warning
'Cause we are (E minor) high on
and we're haunted
By the mu (C major) sic in our bloodshot hearts
There ain't no (G major) rest,
no rest (D major) for the rock (E flat major) stars
(E minor) And it never changes,
whether you're (C major) playing sold- out arenas
(G major) Listening to whole crowd singing
every single word back at you
Or you're
(E minor) Strumming along way past
your (C major) bedtime dark
You trying to stretch (G major) your fingers far
enough to play the first chord
From the (E minor) little people staring
on (C major) at a poster on the ceiling
(G major) To the Rolling Stones on it, yeah,
they both know the feeling
(E minor) The hunger, the fire, the do or the (C major) die,
or the platinum handcuffs
(G major) The curse, the cure, the love
Ain't no rest (D major) for (G major) the rock stars (E minor)
Ain't no sleep (G major) for (D major) the kids with guitars
You can kill (G major) the light (A minor) s (G major)
and the amp (D major) lifiers
But dreams don't care
if you're tired (G major)
Ain't no turning off the warning
'Cause we are (E minor) high on
and we're haunted
By the mu (C major) sic in our bloodshot hearts
There ain't no (G major) rest, no rest (D major) for the rock stars
