Biography:
Current Swell is a Canadian indie rock band from Victoria, British Columbia. They released their first album, So I Say, in 2005.
The members of Current Swell no longer live together under a single roof — as they did years ago,
when the group first came together as a unit — but the bond between the four friends is stronger than
ever.
Touring the world for the better part of five years, from Brazil to Australia, often has that effect.
Current Swell’s years of experience on the road can be heard — and felt — in the nooks and crannies

## chords ##
E C#m F#7
Straight off the top of my head I told the best lie
A E
I know that I don't even have to try.
E C#m F#7
I just fill up a drink, start talking 'bout the markets now
A
There's no money in my pockets now
Before I leave I go pretend to pay,
E
and then I ditch a taxi on the way to her place
E C#m
Because pretty little girl you may look so nice
F#7
But digging for that gold you'll have to pay the price
A
Well I wish I saw the greedy little face
E
When you wake up in the morning and of the boy no trace
E C#m F#7
Me now by your side i got to know how long you tried
A B
And I can't wait for you to come and take my "money" away

E C#m | F#7 | A | E
E C#m | F#7 | A | E
E C#m F#7 A
The digger says, give me the keys please to the benzee, maybe some money too
E E
She says the talk of the riches has got her suspicious of you
C#m F#7 A
She knows what's going on and it won't be long until it's through
E E
So it's time for you to go and make your move
C#m F#7
But break it down slowly cause surely she'll know your a phoney
A E
and you'll be screwed by the girl that you thought you knew
E C#m
but when in doubt,
F#7 A
because at the end of the day when it rolls around
B
these are the words you should say

(say)
E G#m C#m A
Girl I'm sure you are nice and you are funny
E G#m C#m A
But only only to the boys that be giving you money
E G#m C#m A
Wouldn't even give the poor boy, the time of day
E G#m C#m
When you're turning him down
A
he didn't have the chance to say
E G#m C#m A
Girl I'm sure at the rate that you are digging
E G#m C#m A
You'll end up at the bottom of a hole, girl, but you'll fit right in
E G#m C#m A
With all those doctors and those lawyers waiting for you
E G#m C#m B
Well at the end of the day, so you can go, so you can go
A B
take their money away, so you can take their money away
