The Jam – To Be Someone (Didn't We Have A Nice Time) 0

A Asus4
To be someone must be a wonderful thing
A
A famous footballer or rocksinger
D Bm E A
Or a big filmstar, yes I think I would like that

A Asus4
To be rich and have lots of fans
A
Have lots of girls to prove that I'm a man
D Bm E A E A E A
And be No. 1 - and liked by everyone

A Asus4
Getting drugged up with my trendy friends
A
They really dig me and I dig them
D Bm E Fis
And the bread I spend - is like my fame - it's quickly diminished

D A
And there's no more swiming in a guitar shaped pool
D A
No more reporters at my back and call
D A
No more cocaine, it's only ground chalk
D A
No more taxis now we'll have to walk

E A
But didn't we have a nice time -
E A
Didn't we have a nice time
E G
Oh wasn't it such a fine time

A Asus4
I realize should have stuck to my guns
A
Instead shit out be one of the bastard sons
D Bm E Fis
And lose myself - I know it was wrong - but it's cost me a lot

D A
And there's no more drinking after the club shuts down
D A
I'm now at my arse with the rest of the clowns
D A
It's really frightening without a bodyguard
D A
So I stay confined to my lonely room

E A
But didn't we have a nice time -
E A
Didn't we have a nice time
E G
Oh wasn't it such a fine time

A Asus4 A
To be someone must me a wonderful thing
