[Intro]
Fm
There's diamonds hiding in my hands
C
They're gonna cut through the windows
C
Ain't no one messing with my plans
Fm
Right now my star is in limbo
Fm
Sit back and watch my scrawny frame
Bbm
Invade your feelings
Fm
All the years you caused me pain
C7 Fm
I've got some wounds that need healin'
[Verse 1]
Fm
Well you were just too damn aloof
C7
Wearing your Morrissey t-shirt
C7
The kind of girl that's born for youth
Fm
Well that's a blessing and some curse
Fm
I tell you son beware of those
Bbm
Who peak too early
Fm
Cause all that magic can't be froze
C7 Fm
And now it's you who ain't worthy
[Chorus]
Bbm
So baby when I get famous
Fm
Everybody's gonna see
C7
Oh oh oh oh
Bbm Fm
You never really knew me
[Verse 2]
Fm
Does it make sense to simplify
C7
Now we're knotted in riddles
C7
But I don't care, do you know why?
Fm
The girls are falling like skittles
Fm
Whoever said you needed rights
Bbm
To tame your beauty
Fm
I'll say goodbye to lonely nights
C7 Fm
Girls form an orderly queue please
[Chorus]
Bbm
So baby when I get famous
Fm
Everybody's gonna see
C7
Oh oh oh oh
Bbm Fm
You never really knew me

[Verse 3]
Fm
So given knowledge, given time
C7
I'd take us out of recession
C7
I'd tell the world that all was fine
Fm
And that the freedom's a blessing
Fm
Cause when I'm looking from the top
Bbm
You'll all seem smaller
Fm
Ain't that what all us humans want?
C7 Fm
To stand that little bit taller
[Out-Chorus]
So baby when I get famous
Everybody's gonna see
Oh oh oh oh
You never really knew me
Bbm
So baby when I get famous
Fm
Everybody's gonna see
C7
Oh oh oh oh
Bbm Fm
You never really knew me
Bbm
So baby when I get famous
Fm
Everybody's gonna see
C7
Oh oh oh oh

You never really knew me

So baby when I get famous
