Jon Foreman – The Valley Of The Shadow Of Planned Obsolescence (Guitar)

D            G
What did you do

              D                G
With the old one you used to use?

                D                      D C Bm
Remember when you two were simply inseparable

              D             Bm         A
And now she seems only disposable and old

             Bm             F#
Without a call, bound to fall

                 D          G
She was just a model after all

                  D            D C   Bm
In a line of lonely models built to sell

              D                  E
Planned obsolescence works too well

             G   C      D
Feeling disposable and old

                 A           G                D
So what will we do when the colors leave our eyes?

         G             D                     E  A A# Bm
On the day our ashes rise will we still be friends?

                  F#            G             D
And how will we know when the final chorus dies?

        G                D                    E F#
On the day my spirit flies, I wanna be with you

         D
Just holding hands

            G             D                      G
Remember Myspace with my top eight so-called "friends"

             D              D     C       Bm
Now Justin Timberlake is apparently involved

                D               E
But I haven't been there for a while

             G   C      D
Feeling disposable and old

             G                  D                   G
Back in the day following and likes meant other things

             D           D         C              Bm
And pretty soon another made up world's gonna start

                     D               E
But I think I'd just rather play guitar

            G    C      D
Feeling disposable and old

               A              G                      D
So what do we do with the things that we used to prize?

          G            D                    E   A A#Bm
When my favorite CD's lie in the Goodwill's hands?

                  F#             G                 D
And how will we know that the world will be just fine?

                G      D                     E F#
Even if the platform dies, I wanna be with you

       D
Just holding hands

             G            D                     G
Everything dies just as sure as the sun will rise

                D                 D   C       Bm
We live in the valley of the shadow of that death

            D                E
Breathing breath in after breath

             G  C      D
Feeling disposable and old

               G                D              G
But here's a fact, yes, the Internet's just a fad

          D                    D        C      Bm
I only give it a couple more thousand years or so

          D             E               G             D
Until we surrender our illusions of disposable and old

                   A        G                D
So what would we do if we finally saw the light?

         G                   D                  E A A# Bm
If we dropped this accursed pride could we make amends?

                  F#             G                D
And how will we know when it's time to call it time?

         G                D                    E F#
On the day my heartbeat dies I wanna be with you

                     D
The rest is just pretend

              E
Just make believe

                   D
Just a means to an end

                E
I wanna be with you

                 D
Just holding hands
