Air Guitar Lyrics

I never was a cool kid
No one ever really gave a damn what I did
I loved to party, but I never got invited
Alone again so, me, myself and I

Tried karaoke
But they told me I was only ok
I guess I never should have sang Beyonce or MJ
So I dropped the mic

Oh, yeah
All the people in the bar turned 'round and stared
I was on my knees and whipping round my hair
And I knew that I was winning

Close my eyes and see the crowd
But my fingers don't make any sound
My Air Guitar

I keep it with me night and day
You won't believe the way that I can play
My air guitar
Air guitar
Like this

(Bom chicka wah wah)

In my head I am a rock star
And I probably date a popstar
A popstar and a model on the side

I know I'll never make it
But tonight I'm good enough to fake it
Bend an imaginary string and break it, replace it
In the backstage of my mind

But I know my friends all think I'm living such a lie
But the lie they think I'm living gets me high
It's the gift that keeps on giving

Close my eyes and see the crowd
But my fingers don't make any sound
My air guitar

Jimmy Page and Brian May
Won't believe the way that I can play
My air guitar
Air guitar
Like this

And you think there's nothing there
It's simply made of air
You laugh but you're just scared
Try it if you dare

Air guitar
Air guitar
I take it with me everywhere
Yeah, but you don't even know it's there
My air guitar
Air guitar

Close my eyes and see the crowd
But my fingers don't make any sound
My air guitar

I keep it with me night and day
You won't believe the way that I can play
My air guitar
Air guitar

Air Guitar Song Chart

McBusted are a supergroup comprising Matt Willis and James Bourne of Busted, and Tom Fletcher, Danny Jones, Harry Judd and Dougie Poynter of McFly. This is the first single released by the band after they embarked on a huge Arena tour earlier in 2014 selling out an 35 dates and 350,000 tickets.

The rock anthem began with Tom Fletcher. "I was like, how has this song never been written before?'" he said.

Fletcher brought his demo to the remaining McBusted members, who immediately fell in love with it and decided to record the tune for their first single. "It's such a brilliant idea for a song," said Matt Willis. " I was furious when Tom came up with it, obviously. I love it."

McBusted had to make a dramatic last-minute revision to the song. The original version included a brief sample of the hit "Crazy In Love," where the group sung: "I guess I never shoulda sang Beyoncé - uh oh, uh oh, uh oh, oh, no, no." But after taking legal advice they decided to drop those lyrics and replace them with a reference to Michael Jackson.

McFly and Busted released separate mixes of the song. Both versions were made available on iTunes.
