Too Bad So Sad chords by Metric

Guitar chords with lyrics

Here is Too Bad, So Sad by Metric, as written for solo
acoustic guitar.

As you might imagine, solo acoustic is a major
deviation from the synthpop sound that is employed by
Metric nowadays. So I've had to make some changes to
the chords for it to sound good.

Gm:    35533x

Intro: Dm

Gm
Take me out of this state I'm in

Bb
Go somewhere I've never been

Dm/A
Got something trapped inside

Cadd9
Still alive, where's that paradise?

Gm
I thought by now I'd find

Bb
Rough justice is a long lifeline

Dm/A
Back and forth between the desert and the sea

Cadd9
Who I was and I will always be

F    C                  Dm
    (Oh yeah, woo-hoo!)

F    C                  Dm
    (Too bad, woo-hoo!)

F    C
    (So sad, woo-hoo!)

Gm
Get me out of this state I'm in

Bb
When I spiral down, it's a vile spin

Dm/A
Got something I can't hide

Cadd9
Still alive, it's an overwhelming drive

Gm
To prevail and get out of this jail

Bb
Dust in my eyes and a tear in my sail

Dm/A
Back and forth between the desert and the sea

Cadd9
Who I was and I will always be

F    C                  Dm
    (Oh yeah, woo-hoo!)

F    C                  Dm
    (Too bad, woo-hoo!)

F    C                Dm x2
    (So sad, woo-hoo!)

Dm Dm Dm Dm

Gm
Take me out cause I'm all alone

Bb
Hair undone, despair unknown

Dm/A
Got something trapped inside

Cadd9
Still alive, it's a momentary ride

Gm
I've been on a thousand years too long

Bb
A thousand years too late for everything that's wrong

Dm/A
Back and forth between the desert and the sea

Cadd9
Who I was and I will always be

F    C                  Dm
    (Oh yeah, woo-hoo!)
