F                  Bb        F
 Who am I?  Do you recognize me?
Bb             F           Eb   F
 Of course you don't.  I'm nobody.
F                 Bb         F
 I have no money.  I have no name.
Bb          F              Eb      F
 I tear the tickets at the hall of fame.

(chorus)
Bb        F             C      F
 I buy my dinner at the seven-eleven
Eat it in the kitchen while I watch TV
I like my free time and I love my wife

 You'll find my number on the B-side of life

(verse)
F                 Bb       F
Once I got lucky.  I had a band
Bb        F              Eb     F
 We had a song it got to number 3
F                    Bb            F
 Made lots of money.  Made lots of friends
Bb           F             Eb             F
 Had lots of pretty people hangin' 'round me

F                  Bb        F
Now all I want is a place to hide
Bb       F             Eb       F
 To feel safe from the chaos outside
  F                 Bb      F
A cold refrigerator, a warm bed
  Bb             F                Eb        F
A place where no one will stick a gun to my head

 We're happy living on the B-side of life

(bridge)
Eb                   Fsus4  F
 We had a key to the city
        Eb             Dm
But the rooms it did unlock
Gm                        Dm
 Were full of over-priced portraits
  Bb                   Am7  C
Engaged in cheap small talk

(verse)
  F                    Bb           F
So turn out the lights, turn up the radio
Bb              F            Eb        F
 Don't know the singer but I love that song
F                     Bb        F
 I know that I'm no Baryshnikov baby
Bb           F              Eb        F
 But I wanna dance with you all night long
