C       F            C   F      C        F
She was aware of her insecurities as she took the
       C  F
stage
C         F              C      F          C
She was convinced if she got up there that she'd
      F                 C  F
Be discovered someday
       F
So she belted it
            G                  C
She hit the high notes fearlessly
      F
Oh she melted then, as she brought them to their feet

Chorus:
         C    F         C          F
She was a big star at Banana Joe?s bar where
    C       F               C F
She sang karaoke everynight
            C        F       C             F
She said if you work hard to get where you are it feels
Dm                  G
Good in the hotspot light 
                  C  F
She was big star

She made the local cable shows where the camera fell in love with her face
 C         F         C            F             C          F         C   F
After a couple of weekends the groupies were crawling all over the place
 F                                   G                 C
She signed autographs like she was Garth Brooks in a skirt
            F
and in the aftermath, that small time town was hers
Chorus:
          C    F         C          F
She was a big star at Banana Joes bar where
    C       F               C F
She sang karaoke everynight
            C        F       C             F
She said if you work hard to get where you are it feels
Dm                  G
Good in the hotspot light 
                  C  F
She was big star

Bridge:
Am            Bb                  F
She doesn't care anymore that her high school
            C
Girlfriends cut her out 
Am                    Bb            F
They only thought she entertains is where they are and
           C
When she is now
 C            F         C           F           C             F          C   F
All her old neighbors swear their certain that she slept her way to the top
 C        F             C              F           C
But she knows you don't get where you going unless you
       F                  C
Got something they ain't got
 F                       G      C
So she sings tonight to 20,000 plus and the young
 F
Girls scream out loud, man that could be us
         C   F           C     F          C
She's a big star as she eats caviar just before she
 F               C   F
Performs every night 
            C      F            C             F
She's says if you work hard to get where you are it
       Dm                    G
Feels good in the hot spot light
                 C   F   C   F   C   F
She's a big star
C    F             C   F... and fade out
  She's a big star
