Verse:
I hit them with an open G5 Eddie VanHalen style power chord
The one I think he stole from Angus Young.
Pretty sure I didn’t have my fingers on the strings quite right
But all my little misfit friends just sat there stunned

---

Verse:
I practiced every night and damn near every day
I was a lost boy, wasn’t planning on growing up anyway
Didn’t need no family no job or any bills to pay
Just a guitar a stage and a crowd just screaming my name

---

Chorus:
It’s a feeling I’ll take with me to the end of time
fingers fumbling with a new guitar and that old amp just dimed
Living on a dream, in the end, I knew, wouldn’t take me all that far
But for a few short seconds in a garage in 02,
man I was a rockstar

---

Verse:
A few years on I put away those childish things
Got me a mortgage I can’t afford and a third carat engagement ring
And I never planned dropping to one knee, it seemed too cliche
But by the time I screwed my courage up my legs went anyway

---

Chorus:
It’s a feeling I’ll take with me till the end of time
On my knees, hands were shaking and you stood there crying
When you slipped that ring on, I knew everything would be all right
For the second time in my life
not a single guitar in sight
but I was a rockstar

---
[Solo]

Bridge:
Now I sing my songs to a packed house every night
The crowd they scream along with every word
Until mama comes downstairs and says we’re all up past our bedtime
My mind wanders back to that kid in that garage
And I wonder what it is he mighta thought
And then our youngest says mama can we just hear one more song

---
[Outro]
And I feel like a rockstar
Yeah I feel like a rockstar
I feel like a rockstar

Yeah I feel like a rockstar
