Verse

Outta my face
I don't know your name
As time goes by,
You're the same

Pre-Chorus

The last time that you saw me
A5 (riff)
I didn't even care
The next time that I saw you
A5 (riff)
It was me who stood and stared

Chorus

I'm out of sight
You're out of mind
I'm out of sight
You're out of mind
Miiiiiind, iiiind
 

Verse

Hang at the bar
Loud rockin' noise
You have a Chevy
I guess it's a choice

Pre-Chorus

You really thought you had me
Thought you put me in my place
You were so cool in high school
But now I'm in your face!

Chorus

I'm out of sight
You're out of mind
I'm out of sight
You're out of mind
Miiiiiind, iiiind

Verse

You tell me you got a wife
Well I suspect
You got a kid
And I got a cat
You really thought you had me
Thought you put me in my place
You were so cool in high school
But now I'm in your face!

Chorus

I'm out of sight
You're out of mind
I'm out of sight
You're out of mind
Miiiiiind, iiiind
iiiiind

(play intro chords)
I've been around...And I realize it's always the same

F5 A5 F5 -E5 -D5-E5
Here today, there's no way out

Pre-Chorus 2

You rarely hold my hand when it's after dark
And all of the places that we go and the things that we have seen
D5-Bb5-F5-C5
????????

Chorus

There's no way out
There's no way out

Alive today...Before you realize you're not gonna die
??????...And you realize the sun goes by

Pre-Chorus 1

Some say, there's no way out
Here today, there's no way out

Pre-Chorus 2

Every time I come a knockin' at your door
You tell me to turn away, pal you're to poor
I ain't a rich boy, I've heard about all that
All the places I go it's, ching ching ching

Chorus

There's no way out
There's no way out
(verse - this time Robby screams indecipherably)
And I realize it's always the same
And I realize it's all been unchanged
And you realize there's no one home
When you realize you're all alone

Pre-Chorus 1

Some say, there's no way out
Here today, there's no way out

Pre-Chorus 2

Every time I'm waiting for you in the rain
My mom says our love is sunk in like a God damn vein
I stand around and I think it's gonna work
But you look at me like what I'm a jerk, oh!

Chorus

There's no way out
There's no way out

Chorus

There's no way out
There's no way out

James Dean by the Goo Goo Dolls
(tabbed by Daryl Landcastle and goo@soong.heinous.net)
Goo Goo Dolls Web Site: The World of Goo
http://soong.heinous.net/~goo/index.html
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 - A - A.
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...
