Beggar’s Guild Uke tab by Roadkill Ghost Choir (Baritone Chords)

Em G D C (x2)

Em.                    G.     
Oh put it on, take it off real quick,

           D.                         C
On the bottom of the pile, and I’m feeling sick.

            Em.                   G
It never crossed my mind that my baby lied,

     D.                      C
To keep me in the beggar’s guild.


     Em.                 G.  
So I sleep all day and I dream all night,

          D.                             C
With the bottle in my hand I take the devil’s side

   Em.                           G
I smile real big just to keep it hid,

         D.                      C
Oh, the truth about my lack of will.


     Em.                             G.  
Oh I run like hell from the city’s glow,

           D.                                           C 
I lose my name,  I pass and forget the folks I used to know.

     Em.                        G 
If I go far away from the city gates,

         D.                     C
And the long reach of the government.


    Em.                G
Oh all alone in a cold north scene,

         D.                         C
In the blue sky above a plane flew over me.

      Em.                      G
The banner it pulled said “You were a fool,

        D.                        C
Did you really think you’d ever win?”

 D.                             C
I’m  taking off my dirty skin,

         D.                       C
There is nothing to refute my sin.

   Am.    G.     C.  
I fear... no... one,

  Am.     G.     C.      D
I fear... no... one but you,

      Am.      G.   C
Don’t care.... no, no...

  Am.     G.        C.        D
I lie... only... to tell the truth.

(No)

Em (x2)

         Em.                   G
Well the steep demands of the higher call,

       D.                         C
Oh you pawn off the world so the cars won’t stall.

     Em.                       G
I’ll burn my clothes and I’ll gut my soul

       D               C
And pretend that I was never born


   Em.                  G
Oh my oh my, look what you have done,

           D.                                    C
Split your head out on the floor like you’re the chosen one.

  Em.                         G
I gave her my heart, but she wanted no part,

     D.             C
So I sold it to an antique store.


     Em.                        G
So I dug a hole four thousand miles deep,

       D.                                C
To the center of the earth where I will not be found.

Em.                            G
Memories of the moon singing “See you soon,”

              D.                    C
Though I was always partial to the sun


  Em.                  G
I was picked up by two men of the law

                 D.                          C
They said “We’re taking you downtown, forget about your call.”

Em.                     G
Hell’s no place for a wandering man,

   D                 C
Go take it up with Beelzebub.


    D.                             C
You laugh as you pull the rug.

       D.                              C
I was never really much in love.


   Am.    G.     C.  
I fear... no... one,

  Am.     G.     C.      D
I fear... no... one but you,

      Am.      G.   C
Don’t care.... no, no...

  Am.     G.        C.        D
I lie... only... to tell the truth.
