The Obscenity Prayer (give It To Me) chords by Rodney Crowell


Rodney Crowell Chords

The Obscenity Prayer (Give It To Me)

Suggestions for improvement are appreciated.
You can use power chord forms (where appropriate) 
if the full barre form is too much.
The hover chords are accurate.

INTRO: A  G  F#m  A 

A                            A G
Give to me my time and money,   
                             G F#m
Give to me my milk and honey,
                           G A
Give to me my self-respect,   
A
golden chains around my neck
A                         A G
Give to me my super model,   
                                  G F#m 
corporate jet and champagne bottle
                             G A
Get me out there on the town,   
A
let me spread my wealth around
B                                 A
I could learn to love this life I lead
B                                     A
But just don't take away the things I need
B                                                         
I feel rosy in the pink, 
D
so please don't make me stop and think
B                                          
All those dark thoughts in my head,
A                       
seem like better left unsaid

A 
Give it to me (give me, give me, give me, give me)
G
Give it to me (give me, give me, give me, give me)
F#m
Give it to me (give me, give me, give me, give me)
A
(Give me, give me)   (Give me, give me)

A                            A G
Give to me my latest fashion, 
                                G F#m 
make my lover burn with passion
                              G A
Give to me my charm and wit, 
A                             
keep my body young and fit
A                           A G
Give to me my haute couture, 
                             G F#m
give the world a cancer cure
                             G A
Serve my breakfast alfresco, 
A
let the wine and liquor flow
B                                 A
I can search for truth some other time
B                                       A
But right now I just want to get what's mine
B
Let the gangsters rule the streets 
D
while teachers try to make ends meet
B
I despise all bleedin' hearts, 
A
I don't patronize the arts

A
Give it to me (give me, give me, give me, give me)
G
Give it to me (give me, give me, give me, give me)
F#m
Give it to me (give me, give me, give me, give me)
A   
Right now


BRIDGE (SPOKEN):
B                                                    
I don't understand what it is you're tryin' to sell me
D       E  
Or what it is you're tryin' to tell me
B                                                                  
You're tryin' to get me to show some compassion
E7  
Man that's so out of fashion

A                          G
Give to me my Aspen winter,
                                   F#m
sorry 'bout the World Trade Center
                              A
I can't help the ones in need, 
A
I got my own mouth to feed
A                              G
Give to me my playboy channels, 
                                      F#m
and killer weed and sheets of flannel
                        A
Lay me down upon my bed
A
with pleasant dreams to fill my head
     B                                 A
Just look at what this world is comin' to
    B                                     A
And there ain't one damn thing that I can do
B
I don't have a leg to stand on, 
D
I don't have a net to land on
B
I don't have the base of power, 
A
I don't have the extra hour

A
Give it to me (give me, give me, give me, give me)
G
Give it to me (give me, give me, give me, give me)
F#m                 A
Give it to me, right now

A                                
Give to me my tax cut outsource, 
G
build me my own private golf course
F#m                                   
The Dixie Chicks can kiss my ass,
A
but I still need that backstage pass
A                              
Give to me my NASDAQ numbers, 
G
Intel shares and E-trade blunders
F#m                           
Soldiers to defend my freedom 
A
and three or four Valium if I need 'em and

A
Give it to me (give me, give me, give me, give me)
G
Give it to me (give me, give me, give me, give me)
F#m                A
Give it to me right now


OUTRO - A G F#m A
