Deception Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em][B][Em]
[Am]
Shake it off. Lord, I [Em]won't do this song
This is a fight with myself
[C]I want to gain much wea[Am]lth[Bm]
I want to live by myself
[A]But I'm surrounded by.[Em].
I'll keep that to myself
[C]I'm so [Am]stupid[Bm][Am][Em]
[B][Verse]

[Verse 2]
[Em]
Well hello my little friends
and [Am]look at them run
[Em]I'm still [C]at home with n[Am]o ends
and look at them run
Hopping in a [B]tricked out Benz
and look at them run
[Bm]While I'm clocking [A]in as
[Am]a temp look at them run
It is too [Em]late now to affect the whole world,
or is it just [C]dated now?
They could care [Am]less who invaded now
[Bm]Really am I silly with the dreams
of the [Am]milli'?
Top billing with a big fat record deal- ly
[Em]First I buy a house way up on the hill- ly
[C]Then I get a girly dressed
[Am]like Mr. Furley
[Bm]Met her in N[Em]ashville o[B]r was it P[Bm]hilly?
Her [A]hair so curly and look at me [Am]burly
But my [Em]dream deferred,
I felt the same words that [C]Langston heard
I watched them [Am]pass and it [Bm]seemed absurd
A [A]decade of [Em]dreaming
And [Am]it seeming that they just run
away with my verbs
And its..
[Em]

[Verse 3]
[Am][CHORUS]
Deception. Look at [Bm]them [Em]dancing
[Am]in t[A]he[Am][Em]
field goal
De[C]ception. [Am]I look at me
and I'm getting old
De[Bm]ception. How many [Em]records
have I really sold?
[Am]De ception. Wh[A]oops I did

[Verse 4]
it again boy. (2X)
[A][Verse]
Ten years ago I woke up with
a [Em]dream in my hand
Ran for a [Am]couple of yards,
but tripped and fell to my hands
And then [B]got up because the Lord
Almighty told [Bm]me He can
Ran for a [A]couple of [Am]more,
and tripped and fumbled again
[D]And people ask[Em]ing what you
[A]getting up for [Am]go get a job
[D]but I gotta [Bm]carry out [Em]this dream
or my life I rob
And when I'm [Bm]gonna work [D]for
45 years up in the mall
And [A]when I'm old and [Am]gray wonder
[Em]ing where's my calling?
And I'd rather die now
than never wonder how
Never [C]ever try now
[Am]Coulda' woulda' shoulda' will [Bm]be
All [Em]I sigh how Can I live a mediocre
[A]Life and not ever [Am]ask you [Em]why
Are we hear specifically not mundane
[C]But a gifted peo[Am]ple
We must [Bm]shine and [A]it must [B]be equal
[Bm]Live your [A]life cause there is no sequel
[Am]Oh it's a rece[Em]ption[Am]

Hey, Hey, wait I'm called [E]to
[Em]do something

it is but [Am]I'm hunting
[A]Getting lost in this record
biz and I'm fumbling
Oops I [E]did [Bm]it again boy
