Throughout the song, you have this running (played by paino)
If you're on acoustic you can throw some slaps in there for the snaps

[Verse 1]
D5 E5
I know a guy with a rock star life
D5 E5
But he still don't fly, so he's mad at the sky
G5 A5
He sits me down, he kicks his wisdom
G5 E5
He's been around, I give him a listen
D5 E5
Seems like he's got a lot of complaints
D5 E5
About how nowadays things ain't the same
G5 A5
Used to place some faith in the basement
G5 E5
A toast for this guy and those kids that he came with
D5 E5
Cause they all on the same shit
D5 E5
Based on cut down placement
G5 A5
Uptown stay strong
G5 E5
Don't ever do a dance with the devil now
D5 E5
That smile is a sign that you're sellin' out
D5 E5
Judgement, gossip, ethics
G5 A5
Let's just exploit all this excess
G5 E5
Then you can feel how he feels
D5 E5
To walk around town lookin' down from them tall heels
D5 E5
And who needs fame or fortune
G5 A5
When you get the same love that the famous snortin'?
G5 E5
A future so afraid of yours
D5 E5
That you strayed from the course
D5 E5
And you came up short
G5 A5
Believe he would have more credibility
G5 E5
If he wasn't just another drunk pill junky
D5 E5
It's obvious to me that he's still hungry
D5 E5
For the superstars a little bad lucky
G5 A5
Go ahead and get mad at God
G5 E5
Point your fingers at your dad and at Santa Claus
D5 E5
Listen all of y'all it's a sabotage
D5 E5
Wouldn't look so bad with the bandage off
 
 
[Chorus]
G5 A5
It goes one for the bar tab, two for the shine
G5 E5
Let's go to your car, do another line
E5
Barely trust 'em, they're all puppets
E5
Love is nothin', scared of success
A5
One for the bass, two for the drums
E5
Last call gonna take whatever comes
E5
Barely trust 'em, they're all puppets
E5
Love is nothin', scared of success
 
 
[Verse 2]
A5
I think it's great how you used to be great
E5
I can't hate on how you choose to relate
E5
But I know that you had the potential
E5
I understand why you wanted to let go
A5
A lot of pressure in the middle of those shoulders
E5
And we ain't getting nothin' but older
E5
Ain't nothin' changed but the day we run from
E5
But nobody knows that better than you, huh?
 
 
[Chorus]
A5
One for the bar tab, two for the shine
E5
Let's go to your car and do another line
E5
Barely trust 'em, they're all puppets
E5
Love is nothin', scared of success
A5
One for the bass, two for the drums
E5
Last call gonna take whatever comes
E5
Barely trust 'em, they're all puppets
E5
Love is nothin', scared of success
A5
One for the bar tab, two for the shine
E5
Let's go to your car and do another line
E5
Barely trust 'em, they're all puppets
E5
Love is nothin', scared of success
A5
One for the bass, two for the drums
E5
Last call gonna take whatever comes
E5
Barely trust 'em, they're all puppets
E5
Love is nothin', scared of success
 
 
[Outro]
A5
Barely trust them they're all puppets
E5
Love is nothing scared of success
