I might as well be a Japanese exchange student
        A5                                        F5
Cause' people want to know me, right when I show up
               C5                         G5
But then the thrill wears off, and then I'm alone
  A5                    
until Beyonce rolls through town,
     F5
and they think that I can call and score a ticket
When I can't.

       C5  G5          F5                        A5
Cause' I don't know her, like you don't know me
          G5    A5              F5
It's a lonely world when it's all that you see
C5           G5     F5                        A5
It doesn't matter if I got a good heart in me
This gets lonely.

Until Paul McCartney rolls through town,
      F5
and they think that I can get in on the guest list,
When I can't.

       C5  G5          F5                      A5
Cause' I don't know him like you don't know me.
          G5     A5             F5
It's a lonely thing when it's all that you see.
C5            G5     F5                       A5

Last year I got the cover,
    A5                   F5
my phone wouldn't stop ringing and ringing.
       C5               G5          A5               F5
They called more than mother and that is saying something
       C5                G5           F5
Well lately it?s been quiet and my phone just picks up dust calls
                D5
?It?s all about who you know?
         F5                           G5
but you don?t really have to know anyone

                    C5        G5
So be nice to the Japanese exchange students,
         A5                                            F5
Cause' people want to know them , right when they show up,
               C5                    G5
you may have found yourself in a similar place
            A5                                   F5             G5             
Where you found you looked around and just saw loads of empty space.

                            C5   G5          F5
And you were thinking how you don't know them ,
                     A5
like they don't know you.
         G5       A5          F5
It's a lonely feeling after all that you do.
C5                  G5                A5         F5
Got a good heart, got a good soul, what must I do to prove it anymore?
C5                 G5          
I got friends in high and low places,
A5                F5
and it's all the same to me.

C5            G5        A5           F5
I love the Japanese, I love the Japanese,
C5            G5            A5 - F5
those from Japan and overseas.
C5            G5       A5                 F5
I love the Japanese, do you love the Japanese?
C5            G5        A5  F5
Those from Japan and overseas,
C5            G5          A5      G5   C5
Those from Japan and overseas, like me.
