Tom: G

I wanna live in a (G billboard. 
I wanna be with that (C laughing girl. 
I wanna live in a (G billboard. 
And say goodbye to this (C cold, cruel world. 
I’ll (D be the life of (C every party, 
With a (D winning smile and a (C rock hard body, 
And I’d (D never be alone. (C 

I wanna live in a (G billboard.  
I wanna be in that (C happy place. 
I wanna live in a (G billboard. 
I’d be a cowboy with a (C leather face. 
And I’ll (D never have the (C need for Prozac, 
And the (D hair I’ve lost will (C up and grow back. 
And I’ll (D be forever young. (C 

I wanna live in a (G billboard. 
I wanna live in a (C billboard. 
I wanna live in a (G billboard. 
I wanna live in a (C billboard. 
Where (D life is safe and (C so conventional. 
And (D all my friends are (C one dimensional. 
(D Shallow but larger than (C life.  
I wanna live in a (G billboard. 

I wanna live in a (G billboard. 
You’re gonna wish you were this (C lucky guy. 
I wanna live in a (G billboard. 
And I’ll ignore when you (C drive on by. 
I’d (D be content and (C so complacent 
Cuz my (D smiling face will (C be adjacent 
To a (D government project (C slum 
I wanna live in a (G billboard. 

I (Bm see the crane driver, 'got a (C gleam in his eye. 
Gonna (Bm cover up my picture with (C another lucky guy. 
I (Bm guess I had my (C thirty days in the (D sun.  

I wanna live in a (G billboard. 
Under a slogan saying (C “Buy This Beer!” 
I wanna live in a (G billboard. 
Where all your dreams are coming (C true right here. 
(D Selling the dream to the (C american Dreamer, 
Of (D liver damage and (C emphysema, 
But I’ll (D be in good company. (C 
I wanna live in a (G billboard. 
I wanna live in a (C billboard. 
I wanna live in a (G billboard. 
I wanna live in a (C billboard.
