This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Verse 1

[NOTE: all "B"'s below played with "main riff"]

B2 E/B

I live my life in the city

B2 E/B

And there's no easy way out

C#m A B2 E/B

The day's moving just too fast for me

B2 E/B

I Need some time in the sunshee-ine

B2 E/B

Gotta slow it right down

C#m A B2

The day's moving just too fast for me

Pre-Chorus

G#m E

I live my life for the stars that shine

B

People say it's just a waste of time

G#m E

Then they said I should feed my head

B

That to me was just a day in bed

G#m E

I'll take my car and drive real far

B

Not concerned about the way we are

A

In my mind my dreams are real

F#

Now you're concerned about the way I feel

Chorus

A E B (w/ main riff)

Toniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight I'm a rock n' roll star

Bridge

A E ?

You're not down with who I am look at you now you're all in my hands

                      e|------------0--------------------------3-----|

                      A|------------2--------------------------------|
                      E|----3---2---0--------------------------------|

B (w/main riff) [NOTE: I have no idea what

Tonight! that "?" chord is, or if

it's correct!]

Chorus repeat

Here, song goes to an "A", then starts alternating between "F#" and "E",

then Liam starts singing "It's just rock and roll" and the alternation

between "F# and "E" starts getting faster, and that's the end of the song.

The R'n'R Star solo

(Played over B,B,C#,A - The verse chords)! Also a little tip to make it sound

better is to thrown in an E barre chord during the B in the solo as well as

the verse parts, like this:

e|---7---7---7---7---7---7---7---7-------------------|
B|---7---7---7---7---7---7---7---7---9---9---9---9---|
G|---8---8---8---7---8---8---8---8---9---9---9---9---|
D|---9---9---9---7---9---9---9---9---9---9---9---9---|  or something like this
A|---9---9---9---7---9---9---9---9---7---7---7---7---|
E|---7---7---7---7---7---7---7---7-------------------|

Solo

Anyway here's the solo.

e|-----------------------------------------------------------|
B|-----------------------------------------------------------|
G|---7---8---7--------------------------------7---7h8--------|
D|------------------9---7---9---9---7---9----------------9---|
A|-----------------------------------------------------------|
E|-----------------------------------------------------------|
e|----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-----------------------------------------------10---------------------------|
G|---7---8---7------------------7---9s11---------11---9---7--------7---9------|
D|------------------9---7---9----------------------------------------9--------|
A|----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
e|---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---|
B|---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---|
G|---8---9---9---8---9---8---9---8---|
D|-----------------------------------|
A|-----------------------------------|
E|-----------------------------------|

You play all this twice and on the third time you only play half

of it and then into the chorus.
