 INTRO : D A D A

D                                        A
I always knew that they'd get me somehow sooner or later,
           D
But with a bullet in the head, a knife in the back,
A
Not a pocket calculator.
G             A
Sorry mister, you're all wiped up,
G
You're all washed up,
A
Sold you out.

D              A
Got no dreams, got no ambition,
D              A
Can't decide, 'cause there's no decision,
G            G
Got no claim to any position,
G             A              
Can't compete with the competition.
D
You're always complaining,
A
It's so depressing,
D
But if you're old enough,
A
Start to confess it.

         D   A
You say, you sold me out,
F#m                  G
To get a better deal for yourself,
D   A
You sold me out,
F#m                     G
And now we want some of your precious wealth,
            D          A
Because you sold me out.
D          G
Sold me out,
D          A
Sold me out,
D          G
Sold me out.

D   A
You sold me out,
F#m                  G
To get a better deal for yourself.
D   A
You sold me out,
F#m                    G
And now it's every man for himself.

D
Work all your life, put the money in the bank,
A
Sign on the dotted line.
D
Try to draw it out, the joke's on you,
A
Put up the empty sign.
G             A
Sorry mister, we're all sold out.

D          A
Sold me out,
D          G
Sold me out,
D          A
Sold me out,
D          G
Sold me out.
D
You, I'm talkin' to you.

D   A
You sold me out,
F#m                  G
To get a better deal for yourself.
D   A
You sold me out,
F#m                          G
And now we want some of your precious wealth.
D               A
And sell you out,
D                   A
Like you sold me out.
D                                         A
Are you in so deep, that you can't get out?

D              A
Got no dreams, got no ambition,
D              A
Can't decide, 'cause there's no decision,
D            A
Got no claim to any position,
D             A
Can't compete with the competition.

D          A
Sold me out,
D          G
Sold me out,
D          A
Sold me out,
D          G     D
Sold me out.
