IntroGF
I won't let you down
C
I will not give you up
(Gotta have some faith in the sound)
FGFG
It's the one good thing that I've got
I won't let you down
So please don't give me up
Because I would really, really love to stick around
Oh yeah
Instrumental break] GFCFGFGVerse 1CA#
Heaven knows I was just a young boy
CF C(F)C
Didn't know what I wanted to be
I was every little hungry schoolgirl's pride and joy
And I guess it was enough for me
To win the race? A prettier face!
Brand new clothes and a big fat place
On your rock and roll TV
But today the way I play the game is not the same
No way
Think I'm gonna get me some happy
BridgeCmG
I think there's something you should know
A#
I think it's time I told you so
F
There's something deep inside of me
Cm
There's someone else I've got to be
G
Take back your picture in a frame
A#
Take back your singing in the rain
I just hope you understand
F (G)C
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
ChorusCA#
All we have to do now
FC
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
A#
All we have to see
F
Is that I don't belong to you
A#CA#C
And you don't belong to me
CA#F
Freedom Freedom Freedom
A#CA#C
You've gotta give for what you take
CA#F
Freedom Freedom Freedom
A#CA#C
You've gotta give for what you take
Verse 2GF
Heaven knows we sure had some fun boy
CFCF
What a kick just a buddy and me
We had every big shot good-time band on the run boy
We were living in a fantasy
We won the race
Got out of the place
I went back home got a brand new face
For the boys on MTV
But today the way I play the game has got to change
Oh yeah
Now I'm gonna get myself happy
Bridge
I think there's something you should know
I think it's time I stopped the show
There's something deep inside of me
There's someone I forgot to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Don't think that I'll be back again
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
ChorusCm
Well it looks like the road to heaven
G
But it feels like the road to hell
A#
When I knew which side my bread was buttered
F
I took the knife as well
Cm
Posing for another picture
G
Everybody's got to sell
But when you shake your ass
They notice fast
And some mistakes were built to last
Bridge 2Cm
That's what you get, that's what you get
G
I say that's what you get, that's what you get
A#F
That's what you get for changing your mind
Cm
That's what you get
G
That's what you get
(And after all this time)
A#
I just hope you understand
F
Sometimes the clothes
(G)C
Do not make the man
ChorusCm
Well it looks like the road to heaven
G
But it feels like the road to hell
A#
When I knew which side my bread was buttered
F
I took the knife as well
Cm
Posing for another picture
G
Everybody's got to sell
But when you shake your ass
