"Shelf Life" by Love and Rockets
from _Sweet F.A._
special chord voicings:
A+/D: xx0221
Dm7: xx0211
[Dm]How [A+/D]many [Dm7]A&R men does it [G7]take to change a [F]light bulb?
[C]I'll get back to you on [G]that[G7]
[Dm]How [A+/D]many [Dm7]spells and dollars does it [G7]take to make the [F]magic
[C]of pulling legends from a [G]hat[G7]
Will they [Am]take another sucker for an [Em]undersell
[Am]Regarding them with compliments and [Em]muskatelle
A [Am]honeymoon in Vegas in a [Em]plush hotel
Well, that's a [G]sad town in the morning light[G7]
[Dm]How [A+/D]many [Dm7]bullets in the [G7]back does it [F]take[C] to kill a s[G]inging cowboy?[G7]
And [Dm]how [A+/D]much [Dm7]more of this [G7]bullshit can you [F]take[C]
From the charming [G]envoy[G7]
When your [Am]making with the ballpoint on the [Em]dotted line
[Am]Devil's in his heaven and your [Em]hair sublime
You [Am]fit the mold for stardom and the [Em]big bells chime
But it's [G]gold leaf on a wild, wild, [G7]wind
And [Am]they're serving up your future with a [Em]twist of lime
[Am]Paying you in dollars for the [Em]perfect crime
And you're s[Am]cratching off the silver for a [Em]nail of grime
And [Am]pissing in the bitter [G]wind[G7]
[Dm]Last month's [A+/D]colour you're [Dm7]passed [G7]your sell by [F]date[C]
And your days are [G]numbered[G7]
What is you shelf life?
Simple song, lots of chord changes (J wrote this one). Listen to the track
for the breaks and play verse chords. "End on Dm stroke", writes J.
