Em G C Em G D

Em  C     G    D 
we don't need any more mountains 
C 
because the trail builders 
G         D 
failed to give us passage there 
C     G       D 
so we can't reach the sky 
Em  C     G     D 
we don't need any more failure 
C 
there is human tragedy 
G       D 
that's written everywhere 
C          G             D 
and we are all too young to die 
Em      D             G        C 
like a mystery that's here to stay 
Em    D      G        C 
some people never go away 
B                      B7 
cause they've got something to say 
Em            C 
don't sell me short! 
G                 D 
you've been wrong too long 
Em             C 
don't brush me off 
G                    D 
just because I don't belong 
Em             C 
like it or not I'm all you've got, 
G          C        D 
dispose me when I'm shot 
Em                 C 
just don't sell me short, 
G                      D 
I might not be who you thought 

Em G C Em G D 


Em  C     G             D 
we don't need any more fables 
C                   G 
because the writers have passed 
D 
and left us lesson-less 
    C       G            D 
and we must find our own way 
Em C     G             D 
we don't need any more privilege 
C              G 
there is vivid desperation 
D 
that is powerless 
     C          G   D
that no surplus can repay 
Em       D      G            C 
like the fix of rapture in a trance 
    Em        D         G     C 
oh, fates are sealed by circumstance 
B                       B7 
so you've got to take a chance 

Em            C 
don't sell me short! 
G                 D 
you've been wrong too long 
Em             C 
don't brush me off 
G                    D 
just because I don't belong
Em             C 
pass me on by, ignore my cry, 
G         C      D 
forget me when I die 
Em                 C 
just don't sell me short, 
    G               D 
not while I'm still alive 

Em G C Em G D (2X) 

Em          C             Em        D 
everybody's talking about heaven on earth, 
Em                  C           Em           D 
I'm still trying to figure out just what I'm worth 
Em          C           Em              D 
I'm full of emotion and stuff you can't contain 
Em           C       Em       D        C  
and you just want to flush me down the drain 
Em      C     G          D 
but you can't make me go away
