THE BURDEN OF BEING WONDERFUL by Steel Panther
[Intro] D x 4
[Verse]
D C
Why? In a world of ugly faces
C Em/B D
Should I be allowed to be so hot.
D C
So many people without talent,
C Em/B D
Yet I was born with all the magical gifts, I got.
[Chorus]
Em/B C
The perfect body, the perfect face,
D Bm
It's like Gods best work all in one place.
C Bm A
But the haters hate perfection, can't you see?
C/G Em
It's a burden being wonderful like me.
[Verse]
D C
How in a world that's so imperfect,
C Em/B D
Did I wind up with so much cool?
D C
Friends never stick around too long,
C Em/B D
Never feel like they belong
D C
Next to me they feel like a fool.
[Chorus]
Em/B C
I got the grace of a dancer, golden voice,
D Bm
People seem to hate me like I had a choice
C Bm A
Being this blessed is a lonely way to be,
C/G Em
It's a burden being wonderful like me.. Like me.
[Bridge]
D/A D/G
So you say you wanna hang around
D/A D/G
Don't ever ask me to turn it down
D/A D/G
I'm a diamond, I'm gonna shine
D/A
Compared to everyone else
D/G
I'm like a whole damn diamond mine
[Solo]
Bm | A | Bm | A | Bm | A | C | C
[Chorus]
Em/B C
I'm just a Maserati in a world of Kias
D Bm
Genius wouldn't describe any of my ideas
Em/B C D Bm
If I was born i 1453 Leonardo Da Vinci would be jealous of me
C Bm A
But a world of Stevie Wonders would never see
C/G Bm C D
It's a burden being wonderful like me.
