Say Anything – Belt (Guitar)

C#m                        G#m
I wouldn't sell my belt to industry

            F#m
So they carded me

A                   C#m
And they carted me off.

C#m                           G#m
Naked with that belt around my waist

         F#m        A
It was my father's once

                C#m
I still see his face

       F#m       A                   C#m
I said whoa, oh, oh, they carted me off

       F#m       A                      C#m
I said whoa, oh, oh, oh-oh, they carted me—

C#m                              G#m
But I managed to escape the good Gendarme

               F#m             A                      C#m
I fled through field and farm, stripped of natural charm

C#m                           G#m
Naked but that belt I wear so well

               F#m               A            C#m
P-p-p-past the pyramids, and the liberty bell

       F#m       A                     C#m
I said whoa, oh, oh, they carted me off

       F#m            A
I said whoa, oh, oh, oh-oh, they carted me—

E
Hey!

        A                          E
This is something I have to do for myself

               A                         C#m
Yeah, this is something I have to do for myself

        E           A
I have to, for myself

               C#m
I have to, for myself

E     A
Yeah, yeah!

C#m                                     G#m
I ignored the sheep and shepherds on my way

               F#m             A                     C#m
What can their small words say when they say them that way?

C#m                              G#m
Bathed in sweat, feathered as a crow

                        F#m       A                        C#m
I laid a beating of the sleet and snow with my frostbitten toes

C#m                         G#m
I remain unrecognized in my hometown

           F#m               A           C#m
Beneath my monstrous gown of feathery down

C#m                               G#m
But I gathered up an army made of those

             F#m    A              C#m
Who aimed to shake them from their repose

               F#m          A
And we took up weapons, yeah!

                C#m
And we took off our clothes

               F#m
And we took up weapons, yeah

A
And we took off our—

E
Hey!

        A                          E
This is something I have to do for myself

               A                         C#m
Yeah, this is something I have to do for myself

        E           A
I have to, for myself

               C#m
I have to, for myself

E     A    E
Yeah,

            C#m  A   E              C#m A E
