It's ridiculous (Everybody wants to be famous)

Now I ain't sayin' I got it down, but I'm pretty damn close.

F---C-------------------Bb------------------C--------------F-----C-Bb-C
If I taped a fin to the cat, would she go up to the store?
F---------------------C------------------Bb----------------C--------------------A7
Would she make a swim for it and leave my cigarettes wet on some shore?
-------Bb-------------------Bbm
Or go surfing on an albacore?
-------F------C---Bb---------C--------------F-------C-Bb-C
It’s ridiculous - Everybody wants to be famous.

It’s ridiculous - Everybody wants to be famous.

If I dressed the dog up in a suit, would he go find me a job?
Or would he find it easy to buy gun, and join up with the mob?
Or be an afternoon soap heartthrob?

It’s ridiculous - Everybody wants to be famous.
It’s ridiculous - Everybody wants to be famous

Bb------------C--------------------------Am
Success and applause – All hail Queen
---Bb------------------------F
The bitch got herself a job.
Bb
Success and applause

It’s ridiculous - Everybody wants to be famous.

If I let the parrot grow a beard, would he perform my operation?
Or would he become an athlete in his second year,
Hold out for arbitration?
Or run a top 40 radio station?

It’s ridiculous - Everybody wants to be famous.

hey, nice work...i haven't tried it out yet, but thanks for posting!

thanks to some work to get the bridge thats about it once i figured out the verse

[FreeRider]

i tried it on guitar and for some reason that Bb doesn't sound right to me, it should be a basic I-V-IV progression. but somehow, I don't hear the descending from V-IV ( or the C to Bb) the right way. That throws me off, so I transposed it starting off with C-G-F, and it's and easier key for me, I guess.

Either way, you got it; I just need to play it in a different key.
