Selection chords: Sarah Harris

Em C
Picture yourself in the living room
G
your pipe and slippers set out for you
Bm
I know you think that it ainʼt too far
Em
But I hear the call of a lifetime ring
C
felt the need to get up for it
G
oh you cut out the middleman
D Em
get free from the middleman

You got no time for the messenger,
got no regard for the thing that you donʼt understand,
you got no fear of the underdog,
thatʼs why you will not survive!

I want to forget how conviction fits
but can I get out from under it?
Can I gut it out of me?
It canʼt all be wedding cake
It canʼt all be boiled away
I try but I canʼt let Go of it
Canʼt let Go of it,

Cause you donʼt talk to the water boy
and thereʼs so much you could learn but you donʼt want to know,
You will not back up an inch ever,
thatʼs why you will not survive,

The thing that I tell you now
It may not Go over well
And it may not be photo-op
in the way that I spell it out

But you wonʼt hear from the messenger,
donʼt wanna know bout something that you donʼt understand,
You got no fear of the underdog,
thatʼs why you will not survive! (Hey!)
