  Bm                     A           

    Caterpillar crawling up the big phone pole

  

  E                                    G

    Is there somebody that you want to talk to

  

  D                          CG

    You know that pretty soon, you'll be able to fly

  

  G

    How is this going to affect you

  

                          D

    Do you think it might wreck you

  

                       A*

    Your friends might reject you

  

                            DC

    You say you took it too far

  

           G

    Said you want to be, want to be, want to be, want to be...

  

  DG D G

  DG D 

  

  B                              A

    Put down glossy pictures and drugs I've never seen

  

  E                                    G

    We'll treat you with advice from a fashion magazine

  

  D                               CG  

    And one day she just walked into that magazine

  

  G

    I wonder if she'll ever come back

   

                      D

    They all said she would crack

  

                           A* 

    They said her mind was one-track

  

                              DC 

    They said she took it too far 

  

             G

    Said you want to be, want to be, want to be, want to be...

  

  DG D G

  DG D (... solo ...)

  

  

  Bm                         A

    Every time you move your lips

  

  E                             G

    Well, let me give you a few tips

  

  D                        CG

    Yesterday you were too young

  

  G

    Tomorrow you will be too old

  

    To regret all the things you've done

  

                      D

    Who you trying to hustle

  

                               A*

    Somebody want to show your muscle

  

                DC                     G

    Second hand excuses never went too far

  

                             D

    What's this scene you're making

  

                         A*

    Your ideas have been taken

  

                        DC

    We'll seek when you awaken

  

                       G

    Alone in someone's car

  

                         D 

    You just stood there shaking

  

                    A*

    You stood there shaking

  

                       DC

    They said you were faking

  

             G

    Said you want to be, want to be, want to be, want to be

  

  DG D G
