"Give it Up"


G   C                  D                    G
We live in hope of love and wait to die
    C                 D                        G
And sadness all around us makes for crying
   C                         D
And feelings that once meant so much
      G                 Am                  G
Are left to dry and turn to dust, and ashes

     C                        D                  G
We learn to wheel and deal and say goodbye
      C               D                         G
And madness all around us makes for dyin'
C                    D
Young deceivers soon turn old
   G              Am                          G
Are left to die amongst their gold and cash it

 Em                 C                D
Give it up Are we left on the rocks? (give it up)
Em            C      D
Give it up (give it up)
     Em       A                 C / C D /
Give it up, give yourself time
   Em           C              D
Give it up, your saviour's in shock (give it up)
        Em          C  D    Em     A   C        F    E
Give it up (give it up) Give it up (give it up)

   C                    D                   G
We drive a million miles to see the sun
C                   D                 G
Hoping we are not too late for saving
    C                    D
The Lord will smile on you today
      G                       Am
And give you love that you can trade
   G                 C       G
For matches and TVs, movie stars
C                  G
Driving cars is catching

        Em           C              D
Give it up Are we left on the rocks? (give it up)
       Em      C     D
Give it up (give it up)
          Em  A                C    / C D /
Give it up, give yourself time (give it up)
            Em        C           D
Give it up, your saviour's in shock (give it up)
           Em   C  D        Em     A    C / C D /
Give it up (give it up) Give it up (give it up)
