[Verse 1]
Hummin'
All the way to Reno
You've dusted the non-believers
And challenged the laws of chance
Now sweet
You were so sugar sweet
You may as well have had "Kick Me"
Fastened on your sleeve

[Chorus]
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star

[Verse 2]
"Wing" is written on your feet
Your Achilles' heel
Is a tendency
To dream
But you've known that from the beginning
You didn't have to go so far
You didn't have to go

[Chorus]
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star

[Bridge]
You know who you are
You know who you are
You know who you are

[Verse 3]
Hummin'
All the way to Reno
You've written your own directions
And whistled the rules of change

[Chorus]
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star (star)
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star (star)
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star (star)
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star (star)

[Outro]
Hummin'
All the way to Reno
All the way to Reno
All the way to Reno
You're gonna be a star (you are, you are)
You're gonna be a star
You're gonna be a star (you are, you are)
You're gonna be a star

R.E.M.

R.E.M. were an American rock band from Athens, Georgia, formed in 1980 by singer Michael Stipe, guitarist Peter Buck, bassist Mike Mills, and drummer Bill Berry.

Berry quit the band in April 1997, as they were getting together to record demos for the album Up. He was not replaced on a permanent basis, but the band used an assortment of drummers in his place.
