R.E.M. - Living Well Is The Best Revenge: chords

B
It's only when your poison spins
into the life you'd hoped to live

and suddenly you wake up in
                A E A E
a shaken panic now
B
You had set me up like a lamb to slaughter
Garbo as a farmer's daughter
Unbelievable, the gospel according to who?
             A  E A E
I lay right down

Chorus:
F#
All your sad and lost apostles
 A                E
hum my name and flare their nostrils
 F#                                  A
Choking on the bones you tossed to them
 F#
now I'm not one to sit and spin
         A                 E
because living well's the best revenge
 D          A               E
Baby, I am calling you on that

Don't turn your talking points on me,
history will set me free
The future's ours and you
don't even rate a footnote now!
So who's chasing you? Where did you go?
You disappeared mid-sentence
In a judgement crisis i see my anecdote for it
You weakened shell

Chorus

B
You savor your dying breath
I forgive but I don't forget
You work it out, let's hear that argument again
                     A
Camera three. Go now!

Chorus

Baby, I am calling you on that
Baby, I am calling you on that
