Verse
C#m7 F#9
Looking all around at the people I see
Amaj7/B Emaj7
Everybody's living the dream
C#m7 F#9
Starring in the show that we film on our phones
Amaj7/B Emaj7
Taking photos for pretend magazines
[Pre-Chorus]
C#m7
I don't want silver (Nope)
F#9
Don't want the bronze (Nope)
Amaj7/B
I won't play Potsie (Nope)
E
I play the Fonz (Hey)
C#m7 F#9
Every time I see a shining thing on the screen
Amaj7/B Emaj7
I think, hey, maybe that could be me
[Chorus]
F#m7
Everybody's running
C#m7/G#
Running after something
C#m7 B G#m7 A
Gol-den, gol-den
F#m7
We won't stop running
C#m7/G#
'Til we get that something
C#m7 B G#m7 A
Gol-den, gol-den

C#m7 F#9
Looking over there at the grass at your place
Amaj7/B Emaj7
Wondering why it's greener than mine

While you're looking over here at my studio space
Amaj7/B Emaj7
Wishing that you had that kind of time

Don't want the bronze (Nope)
Amaj7/B
I won't play Potsie (Uh-uh)

I play the Fonz (Hey)

Try to keep my head down and just not care

But then, hey, what's that over there?
