Hey my loves, what's up?
This is Arielle and Sean from Icon4hire, and we just wanted to take a second and give you some love and play a song for you.
You guys have been requesting for [G] forever now.
We wrote this thing like six years ago, for real.
The very [A] start of our careers, just like young little kids wanting to [E] save the world with our music.
And this song was [C] birthed from seeing so many friends and fellow musicians [G] pretty much lose everything for music, and not in the good [A] way.
And we just wanted that never to be [E] us, where you give up everything you believe in just to make it.
It's [C] so not worth it.
So this song is for [G] all of you, especially those of you who are musicians.
We want you to remember it, [A] and we want you to hold on to it.
This song is called [Em] Conversation With A Rock Star.
[E] [C]
[G] You're everything I want to be, [A] but that's not true at all.
[C] [E] I held you high, [C] I built [G] a lie.
You're nothing like you used to be, [A] and that's not right at all.
[C] [E]
[C]
I'm sorry that these words [A] are coming out of my [C] mouth, but I don't [A] wanna give in.
[C] I'm sorry that I'm just [D] a hungry rat.
[C]
[D] [E] Someone else can [C] save the world, I [G] won't sell myself [D] for that.
[C] I was a man to make them happy, I was a [A] man to make them money.
[E] Someone else can let [C] it all go, trade [G] themselves for one [A] more shell.
But [C] I was the man to throw myself [A]
[F#] for one meager [B] shot at fame.
[C] [D]
[G] Well I thought you could think for yourself [A] and fight for what you love.
[C] [E] They're using you, [C] you know they do.
[G] And I don't think I want to take the [A] same road that you're on.
[E] You can't be worth the [C] way you hurt.
I'm sorry that these words are [D] coming out of my mouth, but I don't wanna be like you.
[C] I'm sorry that I'm just [D] a hungry [G] rat.
[B] Someone else can save [G] the world, I won't sell [D] myself for that.
I [C] was a man to make them happy, I [D] was a man to make them money.
[E] Someone else can let [G] it all go, trade themselves for one [D] more shell.
But I [C] was the man to throw [G] myself [A] away for one meager [C] shot at fame.
Do you even remember why [D] you wanted to get this far in the first [Cm] place?
Do you even remember why [D] you wanted to be a rockstar in the [C] first place?
Well it's not [B] too late.
[G] Someone [E] else can save [C] the world, [G] don't you sell yourself [D] for that.
You [Cm] were a man to make them [G] happy, you were [D] a man to make [C#] them money.
[E] Someone else [C] can let it all go, trade [G] themselves for one [D] more shell.
But [C] you were a man to throw yourself [D] away.
We [C] were a man to throw ourselves [G#] away for [A#] one meager shot [E] at [C] fame.
[D]
One meager [E] shot at fame.
[C] Fame.
Oh, [D] fame.
[E]
We love you guys.
Thank you from the bottom of our [F#] hearts for all your support throughout the [A#] years and we will see you
