Nobody wants to hear Nobody understands 
Em             B 
Don't start a band

 - Verse: 
   B       A#       G# 
I hate to ruin the magic 
   E       D#       C#m 
I hate to kill the dream 
 B               A#    G# 
But once you've been behind the scenes 
 E                D#         C#m 
Then you'll know just what I mean 
            B                         B/A# 
You might think that's its cool to get up on stage 
E 
And play rock and roll from your heart and soul 
        B                          B/A# 
But no one shows up and your songs all suck 
E 
And there's no applause and no flying bras 


Pre-Chorus: 

G#             B 
No girls will scream for you  
        C#m             E         F#m 
And no ones gonna sing along with you 



Em             B 
Don't start a band 
        F#m                  B 
Nobody wants to hear Nobody understands 
Em             B 
Don't start a band 
                G#            F#m 
You will be so damn terrible they'll all think your shitty 
Em             B 
Don't start a band 
   F#m      Em          
Oh yea yea yea 
           C#m 
'cause you wont get paid 
        F#m 
And you won't get laid 



Pos-Chorus: 

B  E 
B  E 
B  E 
B  E 



 - verse 2: 

     B   A#     G# 
And even if you make it 
         E  D#  C#m 
All the way to MTV 
   B          A#         G# 
I don't think you could take it 
           E      D#    C#m 
All the bullshit and the greed 
                B                  B/A# 
Everyone is so fake when they shake you hand 
E 
And they kiss your ass 'cause then they get cash 
            B                  B/A# 
And the business end will turn every friend 
E 
To an enemy oh you will see 



Pre-Chorus: 

G#                                  B 
They'll turn their their backs and they'll be gone 
C#m                        E        F#m 
Faster than can say 'what did I do wrong' 



Em             B 
Don't start a band 
        F#m                  B 
Nobody wants to hear Nobody understands 
Em             B 
Don't start a band 
          G#                      F#m 
You will sign your lives away and then you'll be working for the man 
Em             B 
Don't start a band 
   F#m      Em          
Oh yea yea yea 
             C#m 
Your message will get lost 
        F#m 
You'll be double crossed

C#m      F#m 



 - Bridge:: 

             B            A#       G# 
And if you think that the joy of playing 
               E      D#         C#m 
Will keep you going through the years 
  B           A#         G# 
Wait till you poor and frustrated 
         E   D#     C#m 
And the fun just disappears 
G#                     B 
Nobody cares what you have to say 
     C#m         E      F#m 
And noes gonna listen anyways 
G#                   B 
Rock and roll will bring you down 
C#m                   E         F#m 
And it will kick you while your on the ground 



Don't start a band

Em             B 
Don't start a band 
               G#              F#m 
You'll be so disappointed that it was nothing like you planned 
Em             B
