Penny Dreadful Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][F][C][G][Am][F]
[C][G][Am][F][C][G][Am][F]
[C]
[G]
[Am]Forgive me if I'm out of order

[Verse 1]
-
This new 'music' has no soul
It may be good for making money,
Sadly that is not my goal
[F]Integrity and [C]honesty [G]are words
that you [Am]don't understand,
[F]But you're the best - it says [C]so in
[G]the penny dread[Am]ful in your hand

[Verse 2]
I saw you in a magazine,
They're calling you messiah
They must be living in a dream -
They couldn't be more wrong
[F][C][G][Am][F][C]

[Verse 3]
[G]
[Am]If we'd play[G]ed this riff
more punk
Then maybe we'd have had
a mil[Am]lion seller
But this piper[G]'s tune
is not for sale,
I'm glad to say I'm not that kind [Am]of fella
[C]D.J.s, V.J.s, pimps and trollops,
Never mind music [Am]- this is bollocks

[Verse 4]
I saw you [Am]in a magazine,
They're calling you messiah
They must be living in a dream -
They couldn't be more wrong.
[F]Turn

[Verse 5]
[C]on,[G]
[Am]
[F]tun[C]e u[G]p, cash in, sell[Am] out
[F]Turn on, [C]tune [G]up, cash [Am]in, sell out
Stand your ground behind
the times -
And refuse to follow fashion
Write your poetry with anger,
And then sing it with a passion
[F]Painted [C]faces in a cir[G]cus - images
[Am]that spring to mind,
[F]When I read [C]my penny dread[G]ful filled
with pic[Am]tures of your kind

[Verse 6]
I saw [Am]you in a magazine,
They're calling you messiah
They must be living in a dream -
They couldn't be more wrong
[F][C][G][Am][F][C][G]

[Verse 7]
[Am]Commercial[G] suicide's appealing after
Ten years on this los[Am]ing streak
'Cause [G]I'd rather be
called sour and bitter
Than be deemed the flavour of [Am]the weak
Of the weak, of the weak
Weak [G]of the [Am]weak

[Verse 8]
I saw you in [Am]a magazine,
They're calling you messiah
They must be living [G]in a
[Am]dream -
They couldn't be more wrong

[Verse 9]
Extra, extra, read all about [Am]it!

[Verse 10]
I saw you in a magazine, [Am]They're
calling you messiah
They must be living in a dream -
They couldn't be more wrong
[C][G]
