Sammy J - Perspective

      [Verse 1]
          G                        Am
When the milk in your fridge has expired
         C                      G
When a pebble is stuck in your shoe
          G                     Am
When you feel a bit peckish or tired
           C                      G
Or you're stuck at the end of a queue
 Bm                        Em
Don't get disgruntled or grumpy
 C            G
Try not to overreact
              Bm                         Em                C               D
Your blood pressure will fall when you simply recall this one inescapable fact:

[Chorus]
                 G
Soon you'll be dead
                  Em
(ba-bada-ba-bah, ba-bada-ba-bah)
   C          G        D                          G
Pushing up daisies or kept in an urn when you're dead
                 Em
(ba-bada-ba-bah, ba-badah)
           C              G          D           G
And your corpse will not care about all of your shit

[Verse 2]
           G                    Am
When the Wi-fi is slow at your café
          C                         G
And they sat you right next to the door
            G                        Am
And then simmered and sautéed your spinach
              C                     G
When you specifically requested it raw
             Bm                        Em
When your colleague is breathing too loudly
             C                         G
When your screen doesn't work on the plane
         Bm                Em
When the bus is a bit overcrowdly
             C                  D
You're a fuck-knuckle if you complain

[Chorus]
                       G
'Cause soon you'll be dead
                 Em
(ba-bada-ba-bah, ba-bada-bah)
     C             G               D                            G
So shut your fat mouth 'cause it won't matter shit when you're dead
                 Em
(ba-bada-ba-bah, ba-ba-dah)
           C            G          D              G
You're a speck in the cosmos and soon you'll be dead

[Verse 3]
    G                              Am
So next time you're at the self-checkout
         C                        G
And it won't scan your Barbecue Shapes
          G                           Am
And you swear and you scream and you jab at the screen
    C                    G
As hate drips from your face
  Bm                     Em
Before you obnoxiously beckon
       C                  G
The cashier to come and assist
        Bm                      Em
Just consider this fact for a second:
    C                    D
Arseholes are seldomly missed
               G
When they are dead
                 Em
(ba-bada-ba-bah, ba-bada-ba-bah)

[Bridge]
  C          G             D                    G
No-one's requesting the manager when they are dead
                 Em
(ba-bada-ba-bah, ba-bada-ba-bah)
  C          G         D                        G
No-one is wearing an Apple Watch when they are dead
                 Em
(ba-bada-ba-bah, ba-bada-ba-bah)
  C          G         D                         G
No-one is voting for Donald Trump when they are dead
                 Em
(ba-bada-ba-bah, ba-bada-ba-bah)
  C         G        D                      A
No-one is gluten intolerant when they are dead
                 E
(ba-bada-ba-bah, ba-bada-bah)
      D            A         E                  A
Or charging for baggage on Tiger when they are dead
                 E
(ba-bada-ba-bah, ba-bada-bah)
     D              A             E                    B
Or posting their breakfast on Instagram when they are dead
                 F#
(ba-bada-ba-bah, ba-bada-bah)
     E      B     F#                        B
Or being a real estate agent when they are dead
                 F#
(ba-bada-ba-bah, ba-bada-bah)
     E         B         F#                    B
Or locking up kids in detention when they are dead
                 F#
(ba-bada-ba-bah, ba-bada-ba-bah)

[Verse 4]
E                        F#
When you're stuck in the rain
F#                          B
When you're late for your train
B                   F#
When a cyclist is hoggin' your lane

[Chorus]
E                          F#
Suck it up and shut the fuck up ('Cause you're gonna be)
E                          F#
Suck it up and shut the fuck up (You know you wanna be)
E                          F#
Suck it up and shut the fuck up
                       B
'Cause soon you'll be dead
B                   F#                           E
(Bah-badup bap-bah badub bap bah ba bada bada ha-skaboogely boogely boogely, yip bap badap bup bah debah bup
    F#

                 B
Soon You'll be Dead
