Play the G to C to C#? to C and repeat. Sorry that's all I know.



F# C# G#m B



    Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me



    I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed



    She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb



    In the shape of an "L" on her forehead



                    F# C#



    Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming



    G#m B



    Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running



    Didn't make sense not to live for fun



    Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb



    So much to do much to see



    So what's wrong with taking the back streets



    You'll never know if you don't go



    You'll never shine if you don't glow



                       F# B C/F# B



                       Hey now, you're an all-star, get your game on, go play



                       F# B C/F# B



                       Hey now, you're a rock star, get the show on, get paid



                       F# B C/F#



                       All that glitters is gold



                       B F# E B



                       Only shooting stars break the mold...








    It's a cool place and they say it gets colder



    You're bundled up now, wait 'til you get older



    But the meteor men beg to differ



    Judging by the hole in the satellite picture



    The ice we skate is getting pretty thin



    The waters gettin' warm so you might as well swim



    My world's on fire, how about yours



    That's the way I like it and I never get bored








                       Hey now, you're an all-star, get your game on, go play



                       Hey now, you're a rock star, get the show on, get paid



                       All that glitters is gold



                       Only shooting stars break the mold...



                         F# B C/F# B (w/ a little hip-hop turntable action)



                                            Go for the moon



                                            Go for the moon



                                            Go for the moon



                                            Go for the moon








                       Hey now you're an all-star, get your game on, go play



                       Hey now you're a rock star, get the show on, get paid



                       And all that glitters is gold



                       B F# E



                       Only shooting stars...








    Somebody once asked could I spare some change for gas



    I need to get myself away from this place



    I said yep what a concept I could use a little fuel myself



    And we could all use a little change



                    F# B



    Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming



    C/F# B



    Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running



    Didn't make sense not to live for fun



    Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb



    So much to do much to see



    So what's wrong with taking the back streets



    You'll never know if you don't go



    You'll never shine if you don't glow








                       Hey now, you're an all-star, get your game on, go play



                       Hey now, you're a rock star, get the show on, get paid



                       And all that glitters is gold



                                               F# B C/F#



                       Only shooting stars break the mold...



                               F# B C/F#



                       And all that glitters is gold



                                               F# E B



                       Only shooting stars break the mold...

 Song: "All Star"



Album: "Astro Lounge"



Tab by: Alex Spears (alexspears@yahoo.com)






         Sorry, but that guy's tab isn't exactly right.  Here's mine:








         First of all, drop your guitar 1/2 step to Eb tuning, like this: (low



to high) Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb.






         The verses use the same pattern of chords over and over.  They are:



              low to high



         G  - x-x-x-4-3-3



         D  - x-x-x-7-7-5



         Am - x-x-x-5-5-5



         C  - x-x-x-5-5-3



         For example:



                 G D D Am C



         Somebody once told me the world was gonna roll me



         C G D D Am C C



         I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed








         And so on.  Listen to the song and you can figure out the rhythm.  The



bass comes in just before the guitar chords do, so look at my bass tab that I'm

about to submit in a few minutes.  The guitar plays these chords throughout the

Pre-Chorus, (when the drums come in) but then it all changes for the chorus. 

Use these chords:






         G5    - 3-5-5-x-x-x



         C5    - x-3-5-5-x-x



         C#mb5 - x-4-2-0-x-x  ( C Sharp Minor Flat Fifth )



         F5    - 1-3-3-x-x-x








         G5 C5                C#mb5   C5



         hey now you're an all star get your game on go play



         G5 C5                C#mb5   C5



         hey now you're a rock star get the show on get paid



         G5 C5          C#mb5  C5 G5 F5



         And all that glitters is gold, only shootin' stars break



             G5



         the mold








         And then the solo: ( I don't have my guitar with me right now, but I



think this is it. )






         Eb----10-7-------6-7-6--5-3---------]



         Bb---------10-8---------------5-3---]



         Gb----------------------------------]



         Db----------------------------------]



         Ab----------------------------------]



         Eb----------------------------------]








         Then for the last verse, improvise.  Skip strings and pick something



         out of these chords:








         G   - 3-2-0-0-0-3



         D   - x-x-0-2-3-2



         Am7 - x-0-2-0-1-0



         C   - x-3-2-0-1-0








         Hopefully this helps.

Allstar by Smash Mouth

x= cymbals

o= bass and snare

r= rim

rs= rim shot

/= for hi-hat: lift cymbal up with pedal until \

\=clamp hi-hat down until another /

INTRO: There is some percussion instrument playing on the 1 and 3 beats of this 4/4 

count song, but I dont know what that is so just play:

S | o---o--- | o---o--- |

B | o---o--- | o---o--- |



 | 1-2-3-4- | 1-2-3-4- |



Repeat until the measure before the words: "Well, the years start coming and they dont 

stop coming..."  Then you play this starting at the measure before those words:  

(careful, I had to switch the count structure on the first measure for the syncopated bass part)

verse:

C | ---------------- | x------- | -------- | -------- | -------- |

H | -----------/x\-- | xxxxxxxx | xxxxxxxx | xxxxxxxx | xxxxxxxx |

S | ----r-------o--- | --o---o- | --o---o- | --o---o- | --o---o- |

B | o--o--o-o-o-o--- | o--ooo-- | o--ooo-- | o--ooo-- | o--ooo-- |



 | 1e-a2e-a3e-a4e-a | 1-2-3-4- | 1-2-3-4- | 1-2-3-4- | 1-2-3-4- |



Repeat until chorus.  Some verses have hi-hat lifts like verse two:  The count structure 

sould be should be like this in some of the verses:

H | xxxxxxx/ | xxxxxxxx |



 | 1-2-3-4- | 1-2-3-4- |



Chorus: Not much different from the verse, but different bass part and at the beginning 

of some measures you would hit the crash cymbal twice, or if you have two crashes, then 

do that intstead.  I labeled it as if there were only one crash.




C | xx------ | -------- | -------- | -------- | -------- | -------- |

H | --xxxxxx | xxxxxxxx | xxxxxxxx | xxxxxxxx | xxxxxxxx | xxxxxxxx |

S | --o---o- | --o---o- | --o---o- | --o---o- | --o---o- | --o---o- |

B | oo--oo-- | oo--oo-- | oo--oo-- | oo--oo-- | oo--oo-- | oo--oo-- |



 | 1-2-3-4- | 1-2-3-4- | 1-2-3-4- | 1-2-3-4- | 1-2-3-4- | 1-2-3-4- |






C | -------- | -------- | xx------ | -------- | -------- | -------- |

H | xxxxxxxx | xxxxxxxx | --xxxxxx | xxxxxxxx | xxxxxxxx | xxxxxxxx |

S | --o---o- | --o---o- | --o---o- | --o---o- | --o---o- | --o---o- |

B | oo--oo-- | oo--oo-- | oo--oo-- | oo--oo-- | oo--oo-- | oo--oo-- |



 | 1-2-3-4- | 1-2-3-4- | 1-2-3-4- | 1-2-3-4- | 1-2-3-4- | 1-2-3-4- |






C | -------- | -------- | -------- |

H | xxxxxxxx | xxxxxxx/ | \xxxxxxx |

S | --o---o- | --o---o- | -------- |

B | oo--oo-- | oo--oo-- | o-o-o-o- |



 | 1-2-3-4- | 1-2-3-4- | 1-2-3-4- |



That is the exact tablature of the first chorus.  Other choruses may be different, and 

the last chorus is significantly different with the different fills and such, so here is that:

Pre-Chorus for last verse: (just the measure before)

C | ---------------- |

H | x-x-x-x-x-x----- |

S | ----o--o----oooo |

B | o-o---o-o-o----- |



 | 1e-a2e-a3e-a4e-a |






Final Chorus:




C | x-x------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- |

H | /-x-x-x-x-x-x-x- | x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x- | x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x- |

S | ----o--o----o--o | ----o--o----o--o | ----o--o----o--o |

B | o-o---o-o-o---o- | o-o---o-o-o---o- | o-o---o-o-o---o- |



 | 1e-a2e-a3e-a4e-a | 1e-a2e-a3e-a4e-a | 1e-a2e-a3e-a4e-a |






C | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- |

H | x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x- | x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x- | x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x- |

S | ----o--o----o--o | ----o--o----o--o | ----o--o----o--o |

B | o-o---o-o-o---o- | o-o---o-o-o---o- | o-o---o-o-o---o- |



 | 1e-a2e-a3e-a4e-a | 1e-a2e-a3e-a4e-a | 1e-a2e-a3e-a4e-a |






C | ---------------- | ---------------- | x-x------------- |

H | x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x- | x-x-x-x-x-x----- | x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x- |

S | ----o--o----o--o | ----o--o----oooo | ----o--o----o--o |

B | o-o---o-o-o---o- | o-o---o-o-o----- | o-o---o-o-o---o- |



 | 1e-a2e-a3e-a4e-a | 1e-a2e-a3e-a4e-a | 1e-a2e-a3e-a4e-a |






C | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- |

H | x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x- | x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x- | x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x- |

S | ----o--o----o--o | ----o--o----o--o | ----o--o----o--o |

B | o-o---o-o-o---o- | o-o---o-o-o---o- | o-o---o-o-o---o- |



 | 1e-a2e-a3e-a4e-a | 1e-a2e-a3e-a4e-a | 1e-a2e-a3e-a4e-a |






C | ---------------- | ---------------- | x--------------- |

H | x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x- | x-x-x-x-x-x----- | ---------------- |

T | ---------------- | --------------o- | ---------------- |

T | ---------------- | --------------o- | ---------------- |

S | ----o--o----o--o | ----o--o----rs-- | ---------------- |

B | o-o---o-o-o---o- | o-o---o-o-o---o- | o--------------- |



 | 1e-a2e-a3e-a4e-a | 1e-a2e-a3e-a4e-a | 1e-a2e-a3e-a4e-a |






Outro: Not much different from the verses, for example there is one fill that goes like this:

S | ---------------- | rs------ |

B | o--oo--oo--oo--o | -------- |



 | 1e-a2e-a3e-a4e-a | 1-2-3-4- |



Other than that, it is exactly the same as the other verses with a few hi-hat lifts to 

spice it up.




The end.  The last chorus is kind of loose, feel free to add any fills, hi-hat lifts, 

etc.  Maybe roll on that last crash.  With that last tom part, choose any two toms. Its up 

to you.  Thank You for veiwing my first tab ever.

Rock on.
