Am D Em
For the entire song

Verse :

Em D     C
 I stand here waiting
  Am   D    Em
for you to bang the gong

Em D     C
 to crash the critic saying:
Am       D     Em
is it right or is it wrong?

Em D  C      Am   D    Em
 If only fame had an IV baby could I bare,
Em D  C       Am       D     Em
 being away from you I found the vein put it in here.

Pre-Chorus :

        Em    D     C

        Am
I live for the applause-plause,
D      Em
live for the applause-plause.
       Em      D     C
Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me.
  Am    D     Em
The applause, applause, applause.

Chorus:

Em      D      C
 Give me that thing that I love
(i’ll turn turn the lights out)
Am       D     Em
 Put your hands up make’em touch
(make it real loud) x2

Am    D   Em
 Make it real loud
(put your hands up make’em touch)

 some of us just like to read.

 One second I’m a Kunst fan,
