Gm A# Monty this seems strange to me, Gm A# the movies had that movie thing Gm A# But nonsense has a welcome ring Dm C G and heros don't come easy Now, nonsense isn't new to me I know my head, I know my feet But mischief knocked me in the knees So, just let go Just let go I saw the ocean meet the man I saw you buried in the sand A friend was there to hold your hand Said, walk on by So, I went walking through the street I saw you strung up in a tree A woman knelt there said to me Said, hold your tongue Hold your tongue Chorus: A# C G You don't owe me anything, A# C G you don't want this sympathy (waste your breath) A# C G Don't you waste your breath (waste your breath) A# C G for the silver screen That nonsense doesn't mean a thing They tried to bust you in a sting But virtue isn't everything So, don't waste time Now, here's a rhyme that you can steal Put this on your reel to reel Mischief threw a rotten deal Monty's laying low He is laying low Just let go Just let go Chorus: You don't owe me anything You don't want this sympathy (Waste your breath) Don't you waste your breath (Waste your breath) Monty, this seems strange to me You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  A#  C  Dm  G  Gm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
