Song: Up With The Jones
Artist: Bahamas
I think when Afie plays it live on his own, he plays a G bar chord for the verse and
then bars the 5th and 4th string with his index finger to play a quick Em power chord.

[Verse 1]
G I started out, I had no plan Em G I took a job and soon was working for the man Em G Em G And now it seems through modern dreams Em G And all I've done is learn to live beyond my means C Em G Yes, we had the house C Em G And we have the car C Em G And paid for it all C Em G On some credit card Em G Em G Now that ain't right Em G No, no, no
[Verse 2]
G My second home, your student loan Em G And every year I got myself a brand new phone Em G Em G Can't do without, don't have the nerve Em G I tell myself that these are things that I deserve C Em G Yes, I can't make do C Em G With just half my chеque C Em G I need all those things C Em G And so I live in debt Em G Em G And that ain't right Em G G# No, no, no, no
[Chorus]
Am D Everything that I thought I knew Am D Everything I was told was true G Em I was living a lie and I never asked why C D And now I don't know what to do
N.C.
I guess I can't keep up
I guess I can't keep up with the Jones
[Verse 3]
G I can't slow down, I've lost control Em G I double down and tell myself I'm on a roll Em G Em G It's not my fault, It's not like me Em G I never saw myself as someone who ain't free C Em G Now I'm wondering C Em G Has it gone too far C Em G Should I pick up the cheque C Em G From this hotel bar Em G Em G Now that ain't right Em G G# No, no, no, no
[Chorus & Bridge]
Am D Everything that I thought I knew Am D Everything I was told was true G Em I was living a lie and I never asked why C D And now I don't know what to do

E D I was living like the money was king Am G G F# F E I let it have the power on me D Now I recognize the funniest thing Am C Is now I'm broken now I'm finally free
[Verse 4]
G We all know life don't go as planned Em G So now I'm buying all my records second hand Em G Em G It's brought me these, I've come to see Em G That all my greatest joys in life are always free C Em G I still have my house C Em G But I've sold my car C Em G And it felt so damn good C Em G To cut up those credit cards Em G Em G Yeah that felt right Em G G# Yeah, yeah, yeah
