           Am
I've got a house in the back of my head
       F
But i can't find a permanent resident
          Am
Cause the markets down and
                   F
The area's not so good these days
           Am
I've got a watch but i don't have time
         F
I got a road and it leads to decadence
       Am
But a dead end sign waits down the line
            G                 F
I leave my footprints for the evidence

Chorus:
    C
So take my life
      F
I'll hand it to you
             Am
And you can try on my clothes
         F
But you can't fill these
           Am
shoes On a silver platter
Your wish came true
         C
So your heart of gold
turned platinum
        Dm          F
You can take my life
         G                  Am
But you can't take it with you

More long days and fleeting nights
I tell them, "Wake me under flashing lights"
Cause I'm a brand name bought and sold
(Sold, sold, sold)
They say a face for fame is a crying shame
Because to face the crowd is to play the game
And I can play a little too rough
Now and again (every now and again)
You drank the poison and I let you in

Chorus

Am
You drank the poison
     F
and i i let you in
Am          F
Would you trade that heart of
           Am     F      Dm
gold for a minute in my skin
Am
You drank the poison
     F
and i i let you in
Am          F
Would you trade that heart of
           Am     F      Dm
gold for a minute in my skin

Chorus
