Refrain
N.C.
Ain't we all the stars
Ain't we all the stars
Playing the leading part
In our own soap opera
verse 1
D G
Sherry shampooed 'til she got her own chair
A D
Now she's playing shrink to every head of hair
D G
A mani or a pedi or color or a cut
A D
8 hours a day, it's the same old stuff
G
They got trouble with their ex and his next wife
A
Sands through the hourglass, days of our lives
D
Ain't we all the stars
Bm
Ain't we all the stars
G
Playing the leading part
A
In a day time drama
D
Young and restless hearts
Bm
Duckin' and throwing darts
G
Yeah we're all big stars
A
In our own soap opera
Instrumental
D Bm G A
verse 2
D G
Jimmy wipes down the bar, makes a mean martini
A D
They tip it on back and give him the skinny
D G
Shaken or stirred or a bottle or a draft
A D
They're bearing their souls to bottom of the glass
G
They got trouble with their girl and their girlfriend's mama
A
This one life to live got a whole lotta drama
D
Ain't we all the stars
Bm
Ain't we all the stars
G
Playing the leading part
A
In our own soap opera
D
Young and restless hearts
Bm
Duckin' and throwing darts
G
Yeah we're all big stars
A
In our own soap opera
Bridge
Bm
This town might be little bitty
G
But just ask Sherry or Jimmy
D
If Hollywood was handing out Emmys
A
We'd all be saying gimme, gimme, gimme
D
Ain't we all the stars
Bm
Ain't we all the stars
G
Playing the leading part
A
In our own soap opera
D
Young and restless hearts
Bm
Duckin' and throwing darts
G
Yeah we're all big stars
A
In our own soap opera
D Bm G A D
Yeah, yeah
