No Rest For The Wicked?
(Lennon & Maisy cover of the Cage the Elephant song)??
| A minorAm | A minorAm G+G | A minorAm | A minorAm G+G |
Ooh. Ooh, ooh Ooh. Ooh, ooh, ooh. Ooh, ooh Ooh. Ooh, ooh
A minorAm C majorC
I was walking down the street when out the corner of my eye
DmDm G+G E minorEm
I saw a pretty little thing approaching me ..
A minorAm C majorC
She said "I've never seen a man who looks so all alone,
DmDm A minorAm G+G
Oh you could use a little company ..
A minorAm C majorC
And if you pay the right price your evening will be nice,
DmDm G+G E minorEm
And you can go and send me on my way" ..
A minorAm C majorC
You're such a sweet young thing, why did you do this to yourself?
DmDm A minorAm <>
She looked at me and she said,
A minorAm C majorC G+G
"No, no, there ain't no rest for the wicked ..
A minorAm C majorC G+G
Money don't grow on trees ..
A minorAm C majorC G+G
I got bills to pay, I got mouths to feed
A minorAm C majorC G+G
There ain't nothing in this world for free ..
A minorAm C majorC G+G
I know I can't slow down, I can't hold back
A minorAm C majorC G+G
Though you know, I wish I could ..
A minorAm C majorC G+G
No, there ain't no rest for the wicked ..
A minorAm C majorC G+G
Until we close our eyes for good" ..
A minorAm C majorC
Not even fifteen minutes later I'm still walking down the street
DmDm G+G E minorEm
I saw a shadow of a man creep out of sight ..
A minorAm C majorC
And then he swept up from behind, he put a gun up to my head
DmDm G+G E minorEm
He made it clear he wasn't looking for a fight ..
A minorAm C majorC
He said, "Give me all you've got. I want your money not your life
DmDm G+G E minorEm
But if you try to make a move I won't think twice" ..
A minorAm C majorC
I said, "Take my cash, but first I gotta ask
DmDm A minorAm <>
What made you live this kind of life?" And he said,
A minorAm C majorC G+G
"No, no, there ain't no rest for the wicked ..
A minorAm C majorC G+G
Money don't grow on trees ..
A minorAm C majorC G+G
I got bills to pay, I got mouths to feed
A minorAm C majorC G+G
There ain't nothing in this world for free ..
A minorAm C majorC G+G
I know I can't slow down, I can't hold back
A minorAm C majorC G+G
Though you know, I wish I could ..
A minorAm C majorC G+G
No, there ain't no rest for the wicked ..
A minorAm <>
Until we close our eyes for good"
| A minorAm | A minorAm | A minorAm | A minorAm |
A minorAm C majorC
Well, now a couple hours passed and I was sitting in my house
DmDm G+G E minorEm
The day was winding down and coming to an end ..
A minorAm C majorC
So I turned on the TV and flipped it over to the news
DmDm G+G E minorEm
And what I saw I almost couldn't comprehend ..
A minorAm C majorC
I saw a preacher man in cuffs taken money from the church
DmDm G+G E minorEm
Stuffed his bank account with righteous dollar bills ..
A minorAm C majorC
But I can't say much 'cause I know we're all the same
DmDm A minorAm <>
We all need to satisfy those thrills.
A minorAm C majorC G+G
No, no, there ain't no rest for the wicked ..
A minorAm C majorC G+G
Money don't grow on trees ..
A minorAm C majorC G+G
I got bills to pay, I got mouths to feed
A minorAm C majorC G+G
There ain't nothing in this world for free ..
A minorAm C majorC G+G
I know I can't slow down, I can't hold back
A minorAm C majorC G+G
Though you know, I wish I could ..
A minorAm C majorC G+G
No, there ain't no rest for the wicked ..

Until we close our eyes for good
Charted for my daughter by Dexex
I write chord charts to show how, as a rhythm guitarist,
I play songs. I don't claim they are the "right" way. They're not
intended to be taken as tabs which notate exactly how a song was played
