As recorded by The Black Keys (From the 2006 Album MAGIC POTION) [Intro] A5 G5 A5 D5 C5 G5 A5 D5 C5 G5 A5 [Verse 1]
G5 A5 N.C.                               A5 N.C.
      They're going to get to it tomorrow

                          G5 A5 N.C.
But they don't care at all

                                          A5 N.C.
They're going to ease your pain and sorrow

                          G5 A5 N.C.
But we heard the same before

                     A5 N.C.               G5 A5 N.C.
All my loving friends   taking nothing home

                      A5 N.C.              G5 A5 N.C.
And I can't be the one   to lay troubles on
[Interlude] G5 A5 G5 A5 D5 C5 G5 A5 G5 A5 D5 C5 [Verse 2]
G5 A5 N.C.                      A5 N.C.
      All their homes are broken

                              G5 A5 N.C.
And what are they going to do?

                       A5 N.C.
There's no magic potion

                            G5 A5 N.C.
Their lying days are through

             A5 N.C.         G5 A5 N.C.
Love and lust   go hand-in-hand

                       A5 N.C.                G5 A5 N.C.
Everything turn to dust   in our promised land
[Interlude] G5 A5 G5 A5 G5 A5 D5 C5 G5 A5 G5 A5 G5 A5 D5 C5 [Chorus]
A5       D5           A5  C5
Take the well-dressed man

    A5                   G5 C5
And watch him pass you by

G5                 A5 C5
Work your life away

A5
Make me want to cry

E5 D5    C5 B5  A5   N.C.
In these modern times

A5        N.C.
Oh oh oh
[Interlude] G5 A5 G5 A5 G5 A5 D5 C5 G5 A5 G5 A5 G5 A5 D5 C5 [Verse 2]
G5 A5 N.C.                                A5 N.C.
      I'm going to scream it on a mountain

                    G5 A5 N.C.
To every valley wide

                                    A5 N.C.
It's all your money they're counting

                         G5 A5 N.C.
And to your face they lie

                            A5 N.C.                G5 A5 N.C.
Put on your work boots, mama   and your morning gown

                     A5 N.C.                         G5 A5 N.C.
Twelve men dead today   they're already in the ground
[Interlude] G5 A5 G5 A5 G5 A5 D5 C5 G5 A5 G5 A5 G5 A5 D5 C5 [Chorus]
A5      D5             G5 C5
See the well-dressed man

A5        D5         G5
Watch him pass you by

A5        D5       A5
Work your life away

                   G5
Make me want to cry

A5       D5          A5
In these modern times

         D5          A5
In these modern times

         D5           C5 A5
In these modern times
[Outro] A5 D5 A5 D5 A5 C5 A5
