I tried to be a boy, 
I tried to be a girl 
I tried to be a mess, 
                   C#m
I tried to be the best
 
I guess I did it wrong, 
                         Bm
That's why I wrote this song 
              C#m                     Fm
This type of modern life - Is it for me?
              C                       Fm
This type of modern life - Is it for free?
Fm               
So, I went into a bar looking for sympathy 
                                       C#m
A little company - I tried to find a friend 
                                            Bm
It's more easily said it's always been the same 
              C#m                     Fm
This type of modern life -Is not for me? 
              C#m                      Fm 
This type of modern life -Is not for free? 
 
Fm           C#m             Fm 
Oh American life (american life)
                      C#m
I live the american dream (american dream)
    Bm                      C#m 
You are the best thing I've seen,
    Bm              C#m             Fm
You are not just a dream (american life)
 
Fm
I tried to stay ahead,
I tried to stay on top 
I tried to play the part,
                  C#m  
But somehow I forgot
  
Just what I did it for 
                  Bm
And why I wanted more
              C#m                     Fm 
This type of modern life - Is it for me?
              C#m                      Fm

I tried to be a boy,
I tried to be a girl 
I tried to be a mess,
I tried to be the best 
I tried to find a friend, 
I tried to stay ahead 
I tried to stay on top...
Fuck it... 
Do I have to change my name? 
Will it get me far? 
Should I lose some weight? 
Am I gonna be a star?
Ah  ah  ah  ah  
 
 
I'm drinking a Soy latte 
I get a double shot 
It goes right through my body 
And you know 
I'm satisfied,
I drive my mini cooper 
And I'm feeling super-dooper 
Yo they tell I'm a trooper 
And you know I'm satisfied 
I do yoga and pilates 
And the room is full of hotties 
So I'm checking out the bodies 
And you know I'm satisfied 
I'm digging on the isotopes 
This metaphysic's shit is dope 
And if all this can give me hope 
You know I'm satisfied 
I got a lawyer and a manager 
An agent and a chef 
Three nannies, an assistant 
And a driver and a jet 
A trainer and a butler 
And a bodyguard or five 
A gardener and a stylist 
Do you think I'm satisfied?
I'd like to express my extreme point of view 
I'm not Christian and I'm not a Jude 
I'm just living out the American dream 
And I just realized that nothing Is what it seems 
 
Do I have to change my name 
Am I gonna be a star 
Do I have to change my name 
Am I gonna be a star? 
Do I have to change my name
