Young, Gifted And Skint
-----------------------------------
Verse 1
-----------
F#
Young, gifted and skint, that's where it ain't
Look how easily it happened, look how easily I fell
A
Now I'm up to here in debt, there's a noose around my neck
F#
There's a price upon my head
Verse 2
-----------
F#
My past was all in borrowed time, stupid, stupid borrowed time
Now that the deed is done I'm waiting for the axe to fall
A
Fantasies grow in my brain, run away and start again
F#
Disappear and change my name
Bridge

F#
Money makes the world go round, fear makes it turn much faster
Can't pay the rent-man a single thing, don't let the man from the Gas Board in
A
Maybe this is all a dream, maybe I'll wake up again
F#
Maybe this could all be clean again . . .
Repeat Bridge and Chorus and end on F# (strum as long a you want)

Took me awhile to figure this one out. As you may be able to figure I am just starting
find my ear, so if there are any mistakes then let me know.
Thank to NMA for letting me know that I am not the only one who feels and thinks like
It was getting lonely. Ta.
