 #The Only Ones - "You've Got to Pay"
 #Album: Even Serpents Shine
 #
 # It's a tragedy that this band's songs aren't tabbed anywhere. They're
 #brilliant and really not that difficult to work out or play, even for me, a
 #total amateur. So I've taken on the task of posting some of their songs'
 #chords for your rockin' pleasure, and hopefully others will take the cue and
 #work out some more of their songs and more detailed tabs. Please point out
 #corrections as needed, since they may not be perfect. Long live The Only
 #Ones!

 #"You've Got to Pay"
 #
 #(Sounds fine along with the recording when played with barre chords or power
 # 

 chords. The little riff after the chorus is F#-F#-E-D#-B-C#-C#.)

 B        E      F#           B   
 I had to choose which one to lose
 B          E              F#             B  
 I couldn't do it for they each had their use
 B         E     F#       B   
 It was so hard, tearing apart
 B              E            F#           B    
 Now I know you gotta get it right at the start
 
 E           F#        
 I learnt my lesson now
 B                    E  
 I learnt it the hard way
 E            F#        
 If you wanna be in love
              E       F#      B  
 You've gotta pay and pay and pay
 
 B         E             F#          B   
 After the pain that was suffered in vain
 B                 E               F#         B   
 The dark roads we travelled, with nothing to gain
 B              E               F#        B        
 And though the pleasures, will always be treasured
 B               E       F#           B       
 It's a shame it came to such drastic measures
 
 E           F#                
 Indecision, lack of conviction
 B                                   E            
 Slurred diction failing what you're trying to say
 E            F#           
 If you are a slave to love
              E       F#      B  
 You're gonna pay and pay and pay
 
                    B         E               F#   B   
 Our flightpath's a gradual descent, from the firmament
       B           E           F#          B   
 I can tell by the tone of the letters you sent
 B             E         F#              B     
 What was once sacred is now filled with hatred
     B    E             F#      B     
 How come such love can be dissipated?
 
 E         F#                B            E  
 I've had enough of all this poison and decay
 E                         F#            
 If you wanna come face to face with love
              E       F#      B  
 You've gotta pay and pay and pay
