{start_of_verse: Verse 1}
Well, we're [A]big rock singers, we've got golden fingers
And we're loved everywhere we [E]go (that sounds like us)
We [E7]sing about beauty and we sing about truth at ten-thousand dollars a [A]show (right)
We take [A]all kinds of pills that give us all kind of thrills
But the thrill we've never [D]known
Is the [E]thrill that'll get ya when you get your picture
On the cover of the Rolling [A]Stone
{end_of_verse}
{start_of_chorus: Chorus 1}
(Rolling [E]Stone) Wanna see my picture on the cover
([A]Stone) Wanna buy five copies for my mother (yeah)
([E]Stone) Wanna see my smilin' face
On the [D]cover of the Rolling [A]Stone
{end_of_chorus}
{start_of_verse: Verse 2}
(that's a very, very, good idea)
I got a freaky old lady name a Cocaine Katy who embroideries on my jeans
I got my poor old grey haired daddy drivin' my limosine
Now, it's all designed to blow our minds, but our minds won't really be blown
Like the blow that'll get ya when you get your picture
On the cover of the Rolling Stone

[A]...
(ah, that's beautiful)
{end_of_part}
{start_of_verse: Verse 3}
We got a lot of little teenage blue-eyed groupies who do anything we say
We got a genuine indian guru who's teaching us a better way
We got all the friends that money can buy so we never have to be alone
And we keep getting richer but we can't get our picture
On the cover of the Rolling Stone
