Introduction:

Em                                 B  
Don't start a band
                     F#m                                              B  
Nobody wants to hear Nobody understands
Em                                 B  
Don't start a band
                                             G#                              F#m  
You'll be so disappointed that it was nothing like you planned
Em                                 B  
Don't start a band
        F#m              Em  
Oh yea yea yea
        B                 A#                 G#  
I hate to ruin the magic
        E                 D#                 C#m  
I hate to kill the dream
  B                                      A#         G#  
But once you've been behind the scenes
  E                                         D#                      C#m  
Then you'll know just what I mean
                                B                                                                 B/A#  
You might think that's its cool to get up on stage
E  
And play rock and roll from your heart and soul
                     B                                                                    B/A#  
But no one shows up and your songs all suck
E  
And there's no applause and no flying bras
G#                                 B  
No girls will scream for you
                     C#m                                 E                      F#m  
And no ones gonna sing along with you
Em                                 B  
Don't start a band
                     F#m                                              B

Em                                 B

                                          G#                              F#m  
You will be so damn terrible they'll all think your shitty
Em                                 B  
Don't start a band
        F#m              Em  
Oh yea yea yea
                             C#m  
'cause you wont get paid
                     F#m  
And you won't get laid
B    E  
B    E  
B    E  
             B      A#            G#  
And even if you make it
                        E    D#    C#m  
All the way to MTV
        B                         A#                      G#  
I don't think you could take it
                             E              D#         C#m  
All the bullshit and the greed
                                          B                                              B/A#  
Everyone is so fake when they shake you hand
E  
And they kiss your ass 'cause then they get cash
                                B                                              B/A#  
And the business end will turn every friend
E  
To an enemy oh you will see
G#                                                                                         B  
They'll turn their their backs and they'll be gone
C#m                                                              E                    F#m  
Faster than can say 'what did I do wrong'
Em                                 B  
Don't start a band
                     F#m                                              B  
Nobody wants to hear Nobody understands
Em                                 B  
Don't start a band
                          G#                                                         F#m  
You will sign your lives away and then you'll be working for the man
Em                                 B  
Don't start a band
        F#m              Em  
Oh yea yea yea
                                  C#m  
Your message will get lost
                     F#m  
You'll be double crossed
Em      B      F#m      B  
Em      B      G#      F#m  
Em      B      F#m      Em  
                                  B                              A#                 G#  
And if you think that the joy of playing
                                        E              D#                      C#m  
Will keep you going through the years
     B                            A#                      G#  
Wait till you poor and frustrated
                        E      D#            C#m  
And the fun just disappears
G#                                                      B  
Nobody cares what you have to say
             C#m                      E              F#m  
And noes gonna listen anyways
G#                                                 B  
Rock and roll will bring you down
