"Soon Forget" by Pearl Jam

[C]Sorry is the fool who trades his soul [F] for a Corvette
[D7]Thinks he'll get the girl, he'll only [G7] get the mechanic
[A]What's missing? He's living [F]a day he'll soon for[G]get

[mute the strings and strum the rythym quickly]

[F] That's one more time around, [G7]the sun is going down
[D7]The moon is out, but he's drunk and shouting, [G7]putting people down
[F]He's pissing, [G7]he's living a day he'll soon forget [C] [F] [C]

[F]Counts his money every [G7]morning,[F]the only thing that keeps him [G7]horny
[F]Locked in a giant house, that's [G7]alarming
[D7]The townsfolk, they all laugh [G7]

[muted strings strumming]

[C]Sorry is the fool who trades his love [F]for high-rise rent
[D7]Seems the more you make equals the loneliness you [G7]get
[A]And it's fitting, he's barely living [F]a day he'll soon for[G7]get

[muted strings strumming]

[F]That's one more time around, [G7]and there is not a sound
He's [D7]lying dead, clutching Benjamins, never [G7]put the money down
[F]He's stiffening, we're all [G7]whistling, a man we'll soon for[C]get

(do the quicky C to F strum)
