Shelf Life

Love and Rockets

 DmA+/DDm7G7F
     How many A&R men does it take to change a light bulb?
 CGG7
     I'll get back to you on that   
 DmA+/DDm7G7F
     How many spells and dollars does it take to make the magic
 CGG7
     of pulling legends from a hat    

 AmEm
     Will they take another sucker for an undersell
 AmEm
     Regarding them with compliments and muskatelle
 AmEm
     A honeymoon in Vegas in a plush hotel
 GG7
     Well, that's a sad town in the morning light   

 DmA+/DDm7G7FCGG7
     How many bullets in the back does it take to kill a singing cowboy?  
 DmA+/DDm7G7FC
     And how much more of this bullshit can you take  
 GG7
     From the charming envoy   

 AmEm
     When your making with the ballpoint on the dotted line
 AmEm
     Devil's in his heaven and your hair sublime
 AmEm
     You fit the mold for stardom and the big bells chime
 GG7
     But it's gold leaf on a wild, wild, wind

 AmEm
     And they're serving up your future with a twist of lime
 AmEm
     Paying you in dollars for the perfect crime
 AmEm
     And you're scratching off the silver for a nail of grime
 AmGG7
     And pissing in the bitter wind   

 DmA+/DDm7G7FC
     Last month's colour you're passed your sell by date  
 GG7
     And your days are numbered   

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.
