Living Well Is The Best Revenge chords by R.E.M.

Chords with lyrics

BB
It's only when your poison spins into the life you'd hoped to live
                        A augmentedA
and suddenly you wake up in a shaken panic now
BB
You had set me up like a lamb to slaughter

Garbo as a farmer's daughter

Unbelievable, the gospel according to who?
       A augmentedA
I lay right down

F#F#
All your sad and lost apostles
A augmentedA        E MajorE
hum my name and flare their nostrils
F#F#                 E MajorE
Choking on the bones you tossed to them
F#F#
now I'm not one to sit and spin
     A augmentedA         E MajorE
because living well's the best revenge
D MajorD      A augmentedA       E MajorE
Baby, I am calling you on that

BB
Don't turn your talking points on me.

History will set me free
                            A augmentedA
The future is ours and you don't even rate a footnote now!
BB
So who's chasing you? Where did you go?

You disappear mid-sentence

In a judgement crisis I see my in and go for it
       A augmentedA
You weakened shill.

F#F#
All your sad and lost apostles
A augmentedA        E MajorE
hum my name and flare their nostrils
F#F#                  E MajorE
Choking on the bones you tossed to them
F#F#
now I'm not one to sit and spin
     A augmentedA         E MajorE
because living well is the best revenge
D MajorD        A augmentedA       E MajorE
and baby, I am calling you on that

BB
You savor your dying breath

I forgive but I don't forget

You work it out, let's hear that argument again
            A augmentedA
Camera three... GO NOW!

F#F#
All your sad and lost apostles
A augmentedA         E MajorE
hum my name and flare their nostrils
F#F#                  E MajorE
Choking on the bones you tossed to them
F#F#
now I'm not one to sit and spin
      A augmentedA        E MajorE
because living well is the best revenge
D MajorD        A augmentedA       E MajorE
and baby, I am calling you on that
D MajorD       A augmentedA      E MajorE
Baby, I am calling you on that
D MajorD       A augmentedA      E MajorE
Baby, I am calling you on that
