[Intro]
Bb

Bb                                  Eb
Stardom in Acton that's all they got
Bb                                  Eb
Stardom in Acton that's all they got
Bb                               Eb
Stardom in Acton that's all they got

[Verse]
Bb                      F                          Ab                         Eb
Just like the grub that wriggles to the top of the mass, I'm the first to get hooked
Bb                         F                      Ab                        Eb
Just like the stub of that long cigarette full of hash, I'm the last to get booked
Bb                  F/C                 Eb                   F
But I'm capable, my love's inescapable, conquering lethargy, I've got energy

[Chorus]
Bb       Eb                    Bb                         Eb
Stardom, I want a hit, want my tan, want my cash, want my innocence
Bb       Eb
Stardom, I want a script, want my band, want my stash, want omnipotence

[Verse]
     Bb                     F                   Ab                  Eb
I'll go where the senescent soldier retires and shiver in south California
Bb                      F                 Ab                      Eb
Watching the storms and tangled wires and rivers that meet on the corner
Bb                    F/C                     Eb                F
Like some prostitute, handing round the loot, I am not ashamed, I will stake a claim

[Chorus]
Bb       Eb                      Bb                    Eb
Stardom, born in a trunk, got my home, got my car, got stability
Bb       Eb
Stardom, Hollywood's son, all alone, don't admire anonymity

[Bridge]
       Cm7
I'm so angry that you turned me on, I didn't remain your friend too long
       Cm7
I'm so angry that you turned me on, I didn't stay your friend for too long
       F              Bb             F              Bb
I'm so angry that you let me see, my totally futile destiny
       F               Bb                     Eb
I'm so angry you inter-rupted my dream, now I know that the power rests in me

[Chorus]
Bb       Eb                    Bb                         Eb
Stardom, I want a hit, want my tan, want my cash, want my innocence
Bb       Eb
Stardom, I want a script, want my band, want my stash, want omnipotence
Bb       Eb                      Bb                    Eb
Stardom, born in a trunk, got my home, got my car, got stability
Bb       Eb
Stardom, Hollywood's son, all alone, don't admire anonymity

Stardom in Acton, that's all they got

Stardom in Acton, that's all they got
