Artist: Clannad
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[INTRO]
[F] [Am] [F] [Am]
[VERSE 1]
Back in my schooldays, acting the fool days
One and one and one is three
And the [F]man said, "Hey, come and cut yourself a piece of the [Am]big time"
Armour-clad forces, riding Trojan horses
Never made sense to me
I didn't [F]wanna be a part of the great debate on [Am]moonshine
[CHORUS]
"[F]Stop, pay the price," they said to me
"Take this advice, you're out of your [Am]head"
I said, "[F]Stop, hold the phone
This has to be cut to the bone
Too bad, I see [Am]red, I see red, I see red"
[VERSE 2]
Sly man stumbles, twists and he tumbles
He always lands on his feet
And he [F]sets his face towards the far ho[Am]rizon
Won't you come this way? Can't you go that way?
But his rhythm don't miss a beat
'Cause he's [F]doing everything he can to keep sur[Am]viving
[CHORUS]
"[F]Stop, pay the price," they said to me
"Take this advice, you're out of your [Am]head"
"[F]Stop, pay the price," they said to me
"Take this advice, you're out of your [Am]head"
I said, "[F]Stop, hold the phone
This has to be cut to the bone
Too bad, I see [Am]red, I see red, I see red"
[VERSE 3]
So who wants a riot? People should be quiet
Don't we give them good TV?
You can [F]learn to love your lifetime of dis[Am]traction
Nothing on the inside, nothing on the outside
All the way from A to Z
I can [F]live without that kind of satis[Am]faction
[CHORUS]
"[F]Stop, pay the price," they said to me
"Take this advice, you're out of your [Am]head"
I said, "[F]Stop, hold the phone
This has to be cut to the bone
Too bad, I see [Am]red, I see red, I see red"
[CHORUS]
"[F]Stop, pay the price," they said to me
"Take this advice, you're out of your [Am]head"
I said, "[F]Stop, hold the phone
This has to be cut to the bone
Too bad, I see [Am]red, I see red, I see red"
[CHORUS]
"[F]Stop, pay the price," they said to me
"Take this advice, you're out of your [Am]head"
I said, "[F]Stop, hold the phone
This has to be cut to the bone
Too bad, I see [Am]red, I see red, I see red"
[Chorus] (fade to end)
"[F]Stop, pay the price," they said to me
"Take this advice, you're out of your [Am]head"
I said, "[F]Stop, hold the phone
This has to be cut to the bone
Too bad, I see [Am]red, I see red, I see red"
