"JAMES DEAN" by the Goo Goo Dolls from the album "JED"
The major part of the song is D - A - G - G, through the intro and verses and most of the choruses. The pre-chorus and the other part of the choruses ("I wanna be oversexed...") is Em - G - Am - Am. These are all open chords played on an acoustic.
VERSE 1 Look around outside Ain't nothin' to do but hang around Thinkin' 'bout all the stupid things that I've done I guess I ain't nothin' but a clown
PRE-CHORUS And if I had a wish, I swear I'd wish, I'd wish for just one thing And I don't even think about all the things my wish'd bring, cause...
CHORUS I just wanna be James Dean I just wanna be James Dean I just wanna be James Dean ...For a day
I wanna be oversexed and underworked and look at me, I'm such a jerk
And I just wanna be James Dean ...For a day
VERSE 2 Think about stories of the actors and the movie stars Sittin' here watchin' the old men drinkin' at the bar I think about Dean and all the things he shoulda tried I think about Dean and all the ways he coulda die Yeah, died...
PRE-CHORUS And I wouldn't give a shit about anything cause I'd be such a big movie star But that don't really do me much good just cryin' at the bar
CHORUS I just wanna be James Dean I just wanna be James Dean I just wanna be James Dean ...For a day
See but I'm overworked and undersexed and look at me, I'm such a wreck
And I just wanna be James Dean ...For a day
VERSE 3 I'm goin' crazy cause I'm always all alone I'm goin' crazy, no one calls me on the phone I think about Dean and I know Dean he wouldn't care If I was Dean I know there'd be somebody there Yeah, there'd be somebody there for me
Yeah I think about all the really cool things I could do and say And then you go and tell me that you found out Dean was gay... No...
CHORUS I don't wanna be James Dean I don't wanna be James Dean I don't wanna be James Dean ...Anymore...
