Underdog chords by Spoon

Chords with lyrics

I love this song, and it's not very difficult to play. It is, however, difficult to
 Each of the three verses, and two of the three choruses have a different chord
so... have fun with that.

The "G-D-Em" progression may also be a "G-walkdown-to-Em"


Spoon: The Underdog


Intro:

G...              G-D

C majorC   B minorBm   D MajorD   G+G  G-D (x2)

E minorEm             A minorAm

  Picture yourself in the living room

              G+G

your pipe and slippers set out for you

             B minorBm

I know you think that it ain't too far

E minorEm              C majorC

  But I hear the call of a lifetime ring

     C-  D-   G+G

felt the need to get up for it

          A minorAm

Oh, you cut out the middleman

  B minorBm

get free from the middleman

C majorC             G+G

 You got no time for the messenger,

C majorC            D MajorD       G+G

 got no regard for the thing that you don't understand,

C majorC            B minorBm

 you got no fear of the underdog,

D MajorD

 that's why you will not survive

G+G C majorC G+G D MajorD D G+G C-G

C majorC  B minorBm  D MajorD  G+G G-D x2

E minorEm            C majorC

 I want to forget how conviction fits

     D MajorD      G+G

but can I get out from under it?

       B minorBm

Can I gut it out of me?

C majorC        G+G

 It can't all be wedding cake

        A minorAm

It can't all be boiled away

           B minorBm

I try but I can't let go of it

 BB

I can't let go of it,

C majorC               G+G

 'Cause you don't talk to the water boy

C majorC               D MajorD       G+G

 and there's so much you could learn but you don't want to know,

C majorC            B minorBm

 You will not back up an inch ever,

D MajorD

 that's why you will not survive,

G+G C majorC G+G D MajorD D G+G C-G

C majorC  B minorBm  D MajorD  G+G G-D

C majorC  B minorBm  D MajorD  G....       G-D

C majorC  B minorBm  D MajorD  G+G G-D

E minorEm         A minorAm

 The thing that I tell you now

D MajorD       G+G       G-D

It may not go over well

E minorEm        A minorAm

And it may not be photo-op

D MajorD         G+G       G-D

in the way that I spell it out

C majorC              B minorBm

 But you won't hear from the messenger,

C majorC            B minorBm         G+G   D MajorD
C majorC

 don't wanna know 'bout something that you don't understand,

            B minorBm

You got no fear of the underdog,

D MajorD

 that's why you will not survive

G+G C majorC G+G D MajorD D G+G C-G

C majorC  B minorBm  D MajorD  G+G G-D x2

C majorC  B minorBm  D MajorD

G+G C majorC G+G D MajorD D G+G C-G

C majorC  B minorBm  D MajorD  G+G G-D

C majorC  B minorBm  D MajorD  G....
