Seems right to me but may be completely wrong.
Standard tuning.
Capo: 3rd fret
D
D
we don't need any more mountains
C
because the trail builders
D
failed to give us passage there
D
so we can't reach the sky
D
we don't need any more failure
C
there is human tragedy
D
that's written everywhere
D
and we are all too young to die
C
like a mystery that's here to stay
C
some people never go away
B7
cause they've got something to say
C
don't sell me short!
D
you've been wrong too long
C
don't brush me off
D
just because I don't belong
C
like it or not I'm all you've got,
D
dispose me when I'm shot
C
just don't sell me short,
D
I might not be who you thought
D
D
we don't need any more fables
G
because the writers have passed
D
and left us lesson-less
D
and we must find our own way
D
we don't need any more privilege
G

D
that is powerless
D
that no surplus can repay
C
like the fix of rapture in a trance
C
oh, fates are sealed by circumstance
B7
so you've got to take a chance
C
don't sell me short!
D
you've been wrong too long
C
don't brush me off
D
just because I don't belong
C
pass me on by, ignore my cry,
D
forget me when I die
C
just don't sell me short,
D
not while I'm still alive
D (2X)
D
everybody's talking about heaven on earth,
D
I'm still trying to figure out just what I'm worth
D
I'm full of emotion and stuff you can't contain
C
and you just want to flush me down the drain
D
but you can't make me go away
