When I was just sixteen

Chorus:
Am F
For those looks, they seemed to say

You ain't nothin', go away

Her name was Irene Wilde
Am C/G
Oh, such beauty for a child
F G C F/C C
When she started dating boys, I nearly died

For I could not barely stand
Am C/G
Seeing anyone hold her hand
F G C F/C C
I felt I had to crawl away and hide
Chorus:
Am F
In my mother's sunny room

I composed so many tunes

They were all the same, just a frame

For a name and just to say
F C/E Dm7 C
I'm gonna be somebody, someday

Wilde is your name
G C
As you left that country town
G/B Am C/G F
I'd been around, I'd seen some fame

I'd seen some ups, I'd seen some downs

Smile through your shock

When you hear your name aloud

It's that face in the crowd

I didn't dig it, I'm much too proud

And that's why she made me think

I'm gonna be somebody, be somebody

Be somebody, someday
