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 Bb: 11333x Dm/A: x0023x Cadd9: x3203x F: 133211 C: x32010 Dm: xx0231
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

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

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

Gm
Take me out cause I'm all alone
Bb
Hair undone, despair unknown

Got something trapped inside

Still alive, it's a momentary ride

I've been on a thousand years too long

A thousand years too late for everything that's wrong
