Lyrics
[verse]
I want a house up on a hill somewhere
With a view that makes the whole world stare
I want a garage full of shiny things
I want the crowd to scream when the guitar sings
I'll trade my nine-to-five for a stage and a mic
Trade my quiet life for the neon lights
[chorus]
Gonna be a rockstar, gonna live it loud
Gonna have my name up in every crowd
Fast cars, bright lights, a velvet rope
Livin' out the wildest version of the dream I hope
Everybody wants to be a rockstar
Yeah, everybody wants to go that far
[verse]
I want the private jet and the front row seat
I want the whole arena on its feet
I'll sign whatever they put in front of me
Long as I get to play what I wanna be
Give me the excess, give me the noise
Give me the life every kid enjoys
[chorus]
Gonna be a rockstar, gonna live it loud
Gonna have my name up in every crowd
Fast cars, bright lights, a velvet rope
Livin' out the wildest version of the dream I hope
Everybody wants to be a rockstar
Yeah, everybody wants to go that far
[bridge]
Maybe it's silly, maybe it's a phase
But I'll chase the lights until the end of days
Even if I never make the charts
I'll still play a rockstar in my heart
[chorus]
Gonna be a rockstar, gonna live it loud
Gonna have my name up in every crowd
Fast cars, bright lights, a velvet rope
Livin' out the wildest version of the dream I hope
Everybody wants to be a rockstar
Yeah, everybody wants to go that far
