Nepotism Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I'd[Em] line up [G]my stuffies pretend I have
something [C]worth sharing with [G]them
And like a [C]bear sleepin' in [G]his den
they couldn't [D]less
And at the [C]fifth grade talent
show [G]I sang
My voice it shook [D]and rang
through the [G]room
And my [C]teacher whispered to
[G]my mom "not [D]to be rude...

[Verse 2]
But [C]every kid [G]wants to be famous"

[Verse 3]
[D]And her[C] son always
[G]won best [D]of show
But the [C]funny thing was [G]she always was
a [D]judge on [Ebdim]the panel[Em]
[C]"Every kid [G]wants to be famous"

[Verse 4]
[D]I'd [Em]march through the
flowers [G]singing for hours
[C]My voice was still [G]small
And I was [C]short but I always stood
[G]up tall as tall as I [D]could

[Verse 5]
And when the [C]sixth grade finally rolled [G]along
I sung another [D]song that I wro[G]te
And I [C]was glad but I didn't have [G]high
hopes I didn't have [D]high hopes

[Verse 6]
Cause [C]every kid [G]wants to be fam[D]ous
[C]Every kid [G]wants to shine [D]bright
But the [C]only ribbon [G]that was
given [D]away [Ebdim]that nigh[Em]t
Was to the [C]son who always
[G]won best of show

[Verse 7]
[D]I'm [Em]never gonna let go of it
I'm never gonna let go
[C]I'm [G]nev[Em]er gonna let go of this
watch me never let it go
[C]

[Verse 8]
[G]
This town [C]is small
So don't pretend you haven't
seen [G]me now
This town [C]is small so don't pretend
you haven't seen [G]me now
[Cm]Ohhhh

[Verse 9]
[C]every [G]kid wants to be famous
[D]Yet[C] her son always
[G]won best [D]of show
[C]Ohhhh nepotism
[G]Yes I said it
[D]Still [Ebdim]upset and[Em] you'll regret it
[C]Every kid [G]wants to be famous
[D]

[Verse 10]
[Em]Never gonna let go of this
I'll sing about it every [D]show[Em]
Never gonna [G]let go oh no oh [C]oh

[Verse 11]
Don't pretend you haven't [G]seen
me now
This town [C]is small so don't pretend
you haven't seen [G]me now
This world [C]is small so don't pretend
you haven't [G]seen me now
Now that I'm [B]not so [Em]small [C]id like
to see you try and tear me [G]down
