 I might as well be a Japanese exchange student
         Am                                        F 
 Cause' people want to know me, right when I show up
                C                         G       
 But then the thrill wears off, and then I'm alone
   Am                             
 until Beyonce rolls through town,
      F                                           
 and they think that I can call and score a ticket
 When I can't.
 
        C  G          F                        Am 
 Cause' I don't know her, like you don't know me
           G    Am              F              
 It's a lonely world when it's all that you see
 C           G     F                        Am 
 It doesn't matter if I got a good heart in me
 This gets lonely.

 Until Paul McCartney rolls through town,
       F                                            
 and they think that I can get in on the guest list,
 When I can't.
 
        C  G          F                      Am 
 Cause' I don't know him like you don't know me.
           G     Am             F               
 It's a lonely thing when it's all that you see.
 C            G     F                       Am 
 It doesn't matter if I got a good heart in me.
 This gets lonely.

 Last year I got the cover,
     Am                   F                 
 my phone wouldn't stop ringing and ringing.
        C               G          Am               F     
 They called more than mother and that is saying something
        C               G           F                              
 Well lately it??s been quiet and my phone just picks up dust calls
               D/F#              
 ??It??s all about who you know??
          F                          G    
 but you don??t really have to know anyone
 
                     C        G               
 So be nice to the Japanese exchange students,
          Am                                            F 
 Cause' people want to know them, right when they show up,
                C                    G         
 you may have found yourself in a similar place
             Am                                   F             G    
 Where you found you looked around and just saw loads of empty space.
 
                             C   G          F  
 And you were thinking how you don't know them,
                      Am  
 like they don't know you.
          G       Am          F              
 It's a lonely feeling after all that you do.
 C                  G                Am         F                      
 Got a good heart, got a good soul, what must I do to prove it anymore?
 C                 G                  
 I got friends in high and low places,
 Am                F         
 and it's all the same to me.
 
 C            G        Am           F     
 I love the Japanese, I love the Japanese,
 C            G            Am-F 
 those from Japan and overseas.
 C            G       Am                 F     
 I love the Japanese, do you love the Japanese?
 C            G        Am  F   
 Those from Japan and overseas,
 C            G          Am      G   C  
 Those from Japan and overseas, like me.
