Pickin It Up chords by Hot Hot Heat

Should match pitch with the song with a capo on 1.

VERSE 1:
   A            D      A  D A
Everybody is waiting for everybody to get out
                      D     A   D A
I'll join 'em talking 'bout the people everybody talk about
                     D      E7
And all the pretty people party while the petty people pout

CHORUS:

Woah, oh, oh,
D     A       D      A
Pickin' it up but then I put it back down
D     A       D      A
Pickin' it up but then I put it back down
D     A       D      E7
Pickin' it up but then I put it back down

VERSE 2:
       A             D        A   D A
We could have given up early when it was dark still, not light
               D   A   D A
Now it's the 48th hour of a two-day night
                     D      E7
And all the pretty people party while the petty people fight

CHORUS:

Woah, oh, oh,

D     A       D      A
Pickin' it up but then I put it back down
D     A       D      A
Pickin' it up but then I put it back down
D     A       D      E7
Pickin' it up but then I put it back down

BRIDGE:
A          F#m D     E7
A jack-of-all-trades and a master of none
C#m   D          A         E7
Why do I have to be bored with being foolish and young?
A       F#m      D     E7
The show isn't over, but I'm long since gone
C#m      D          A           E7          A
I feel like I let them down when I don't wanna trade my sunshine for a cloudy night

VERSE 3:
                     D     A              D      A
But everybody's pretending the sun won't ever come out (--ing it up but then I put it back down)
                     D     A                  D  A
I'll join 'em talking 'bout whatever everybody talks about (--ing it up but then I put it back down)
                     D      E7
And all the pretty people party while the petty people shout

CHORUS:

Woah, oh, oh,

D     A       D      A
Pickin' it up but then I put it back down
D     A       D      A
Pickin' it up but then I put it back down
D     A       D      E7
Pickin' it up but then I put it back down

Woah, oh, oh,
D     A       D      A
Pickin' it up but then I put it back down
D     A       D      A
Pickin' it up but then I put it back down
D     A       D      E7      A
