[Intro]
Bm 
I got your picture 
  
I'm coming with you 
        G 
Dear Maria, count me in 
              D                                     A 
There's a story at the bottom of this bottle and I'm the pen
[Strophe]
D 
When the lights go off 
            G 
I wanna watch the way you take the stage by storm 
Em                                       A 
The way you wrap those boys around your finger 
                            D 
Go on and play the leader 
                                               G 
Cause you know it's what you're good at 
                              Em 
The low road for the fast track 
                             A      A/Bb 
Make every second last

           Bm                                       G 
Make it count when I'm the one who's selling you out 
            D 
Cause it feels like stealing hearts 
                  A 
Calling your name from the crowd
[Strophe]
D 
Then in the field 
                                        G 
You'll be the showgirl of the home team 
                Em 
I'll be the narrator 
          A 
Telling another tale of the American dream 
D 
I see your name in lights 
G 
We could make you a star 
Em 
Girl, we'll take the world by storm

It isn't that hard

Calling your name from the crowd
[Interlude]
D 
Take a breath 
           A            F#m 
Don't it sound so easy?

Never had a doubt 
             G      A       D           A       F#m  G      G    A 
Now I'm going crazy watching from the floor 
D                                   A             F#m   G 
Take a breath and let the rest come easy
