Toad the Wet Sprocket – Throw It All Away (Ukulele)

          G
Take Your Cautionary Tales

              Em
and take your incremental gains

            C                  D
and all the sycophanic games

                 G
and throw it all away

G
burn your tv in your yard

             Em
and gather 'round it with your friends

              C                      D
and warm your hands upon the fire

                G
and start again

         C
take the story you've been sold

              G              Em
the lies that justify the pain

               C                     D
the guilt that weighs upon your soul

                     G
and throw 'em all away

            G
tear up the calendar you bought

           Em
throw the pieces to the sky

         C
confetti falling down like rain

       D                            G
like a parade to usher in your life

         C
take the dreams that should've died

              G                 Em
the ones that kept you lying awake

          C                      D
when you should've been alright

                      G
and throw 'em all away

         F    C G          F       C    G
With the time I waste on a life I never had

           F      C   G                 D
I could?ve turned myself into a better man

                 C
?cos there ain?t nothing you can buy

         G               Em
there is nothing you can save

            C                    D
to fill the hole inside your heart

                Em    G
so throw it all away

                C                    D
won?t fill the hole inside your heart

G
help me to empty this house

Em
the wool I?ve gathered all these days

C
and thought I couldn?t do without

    D            G
and throw it all away
