CMade my peace with it
With the higher power
The years in the spotlight
Were good to me now
But in comes the chance of a lifetime
To quietly see myself out
CWhen the place was alive with it
And thick with drums
And you’d barely believe in
What I would become and
The coldest receptions would await me away
And at home
[Verse]
CThe seven inside
Would wait in wild disdain
CGive it unkindly to my face
CBut the drain at th? start pierced
The v?il of the artifice
But I was too young to restrain
C(Mmm)
‘Cos every star fire of invention thinks
That they are misunderstood
C(Mmm)
But in the crossfire of resentment I was
Giving back when I could
CBut chemical highs and clear blue skies await
Honey gold lightness in my face
CCouldn’t take it farther
If I strained it any harder but I got
No right to complain
[Pre-Chorus]
C(Gimme some time)
To work out my feelings
C(Gimme some time)
I’ll define what I need
C(Gimme some time)
‘Cos it’s a plain and indestructible thing
That you don’t get **** for free
Uh- uh
[Chorus]
C F..I’m only in it for the money
C G..I’m only in it for the change
Am G..I’m not in it for the glory
DmI’m not in it for the friends
With the form or the fame
FThe innocence died in waves of quiet things
Am GNothing feels right or quite the same
DmIt’s great at the start but in the end at the heart
Em FIt’s a job and a choice that I made
DmI strayed into darkness the day after Armistice
FStrayed into darkness and I stayed
Dm FWent straight into darkness the day after Armistice Day
[Interlude]
C……….
[Verse]
CSend my regards to the shapers of the industry
It’s highly unlikely they’ll be as blatant as that
CI got love for the theorists and the punks and the idealists
But let’s be honest, I’m only in it for the cash
CNow I live by a motto, just like Assou- Ekotto
And it’s “**** you and pay me”, it’s a line I respect
CA below average shooter, I’m hardly Batistuta
But the vision and motivation? – I get
[Chorus]
C F..I’m only in it for the money
C G..I’m only in it for the change
Am G..I’m not in it for the glory
DmI’m not in it for the friends
With the form or the fame
FThe innocence died in waves of quiet things
Am GNothing feels right or quite the same
DmIt’s great at the start but in the end at the heart
Em FIt’s a job and a choice that I made
DmI strayed into darkness the day after Armistice
FStrayed into darkness and I stayed
Dm FWent straight into darkness the day after Armistice Day
[Interlude]
F G Em Dm…………..
F G C G…………
[Verse]
F GAnd I feel the worse for the ones who love
Em DmThe ungrateful bastard I’ve become
F GThey shouldn’t have to love me
CIf they don’t want
F GI been working hard and saving face
Am EmBut I’ve not been in the greatest place
Dm GThink I will get better
CI dunno
[Outro]
F GWhen I was bright and young and full of ****
Em FI was happy in the midst of it
G CAnyway I’ll tell the guys you said hello
