Verse 1:
G
Change my name like Penny Lane
    Em7                     C
And go and start a new life sitting on the starline
G
 A bittersweet escape
     Em7                     C                Am
xxxx all I've ever known, my home was never home

Pre-chorus:
                         Bm
Since I was young, I was outbound
                       Am
I wasn't meant for the background
         C        D
Waitin', prayin', sayin'

Chorus:
G
I wanna be a silver screen baby
Bm
I want the world to love me or hate me

Spin on a Golden Globe

Life is "La vie en rose"

Immortalized, so time cannot touch me
Am
Hand me a microphone

So I'll never be alone

Verse 2:
G
Write my history like Madonna
Em7                    C
Virgin on a Greyhound, little girl a goner
G
Dye my hair and paint my makeup
Em7                 C                  Am
Sleepless in Seattle, we had to break up

Pre-chorus:
                         Bm
Since I was young, I was outbound
                       Am
I wasn't meant for the background

Waitin', prayin', sayin'

I wanna be a silver screen baby

Alone, alone

Bridge:
Bb                           Am               Bb
  I know there's a place for me sometime, somewhere
                           C          D
Under all the lights where they can't find me

Chorus:
G
Look at me, I'm a silver screen baby
Bm
Now all the world can love me or hate me
Am
Spin on a Golden Globe
D
Life is "La vie en rose"
G
Look at me now, a silver screen honey

Immortalized, so time cannot touch me
Am
Hand me a microphone
   D               G Bm
So I'll never be alone
 Am   D
Alone
