This song is pretty bad-ass, and fun with a lot of people... Enjoy, and listen to
the song for weird lyric timings!
Dan Mangan- Sold
E G#7 C#m A
I thought the suits had come for me, Found alternatives to honesty
E G#7 C#m A
Body and soul were bought and sold, Patented and out of reach
E G#7
So I reach but it hurts, it kills, it screams,
C#m
And it fills my heart with chills,
A
And I take my pills,
E G#7 C#m A
But I'm still tired of sleeping with the light on
But if it keeps the hair out of my eyes,
Pack it up and send it home
For just one stab at the good life,
That's enough and I'm sold
So I gave up all my wretched thoughts,
And left them out for the less fortunate
And at the gates I'll skip the queue ,
Life's not living 'less you're sure to make it through
*(This verse slows down at the end, hold the last C#m and A for 2 bars)
But now it hurts, it kills, it screams,
And it fills my heart with chills
And I take my pills,
But I'm still tired of sleeping with the light on
(Resume normal chord patern (E, G#7, C#m, A))
But now it hurts, it kills, it screams,
And it fills my heart with chills
And I take my pills,
But I'm still tired of sleeping with the light on
But if it keeps the hair out of my eyes,
Pack it up and send it home
For just one stab at the good life,
That's enough and I'm sold
Lord, I'm sold, Go on pack me up, I'm sold
Go on pack me up, I'm sold, Go on pack me up, I'm sold
Go on pack me up, I'm sold, Go on pack me up, I'm sold
Go on pack me up, I'm sold, Pack me up, I'm sold
If it keeps the hair out of my eyes,
Pack it up and send it home
For just one stab at the good life,
That's enough and I'm sold
