Good Boy chords by Paris Paloma

Key: E Major

🎸 Intro:

E

E
I knew one day I'd have to watch powerful men burn the world down
E
I just didn't expect them to be such losers

🎸 Verse:
      E
I have never seen submission embodied half so well
           C#m
As in the feeble competition between men with souls to sell
           A
And I've never seen a guard dog with less fearsome of a bite
               Am
Than with its tail between its legs found at the rich man's side

 E
Look at him, he's sweating, he's sweating from the climb
         C#m
Office worker, soldier, CEO, hе's bleedin' and he's blind
            A
And I have nevеr seen a creature more pitiful than him
           Am
He drinks power like saltwater, all because he cannot swim



🎸 Chorus:
  C#m                          A
Mouths open, servants of a higher power
  E                                G#m
They told him, "It's a staircase, it's a tower"
 A                            C#m
Full circle, wagging tails, wearing a collar
 E                                          A
Poor madman, that's what happens when you drink saltwater

🎸 Verse:
 E
Burned your tongue too early and realised too late
     C#m
The tragedy of losin' everything you'll never taste
       A
The clearness of the river, the honey on her tongue
      Am
Door opened to communion, bein' your father's son

    E
And I would not expect you to witness what we know
      C#m
The songs sung in the dark times, the fire and the snow
           A
We'll be piling up our pyre and defend your lords
     Am
And we'll have our joy, and it'll never be yours



🎸 Chorus:
 C#m                           A
Mouths open, servants of a higher power (Higher power)
  E                                G#m
They told him, "It's a staircase, it's a tower
 A                           C#m
Full circle, wagging tails, wearing a collar (Wearing a collar)
 E                         A
Even the dogs know not to drink saltwater

🎸 Bridge:
  E                                     C#m
Good boy! You're working exactly as intended
 C#m                                         A
Has the penny dropped? You're never gonna get it
                               E
Unrewarded for all of your defendin'
              B
From your loneliness epidemic

E                                        C#m
Good boy! Has any of the money trickled down yet?
C#m                                               A
You say one day you'll be rich? Well, tell me how then
 A                                   E
Unpaid marketing department for the power
       B
Good boy, good boy
C#m
Ah, good boy, good boy

🎸 Chorus:
 C#m                           A
Mouths open, servants of a higher power (Higher power)
  E                                G#m
They told him, "It's a staircase, it's a tower
 A                           C#m
Full circle, wagging tails, wearing a collar (Wearing a collar)
 E                         A
Even the dogs know not to drink saltwater
