Verse 1
E G# C#m A
Johnny wanna be a big star
Get on stage and play the guitar
Make a little money
buy a fancy car
Big old house and an alligator
Just to match with them alligator shoes
Hes a rich man so hes no longer singin the blues
F#m
Hes singing songs about material things
B
and platinum rings and watches that go bling
E G# C#m A
But, diamonds don't bling in the dark
He a star now, but he aint singing from the heart
Sooner or later hes just gonna fall apart
Coz hes fans can't relate to his new found art
He ain't doing what he did from the start
and thats -----?
F#m
He decided to live his life shallow
B
Passion is love for material
Chorus
E B C# A
And its gone..gone..going..
gone..everything gone..give a damn..
gone be the birds when they don't wanna sing..
gone people..up arkward with their things..
Gone.
