R.E.M. - Monty Got A Raw Deal: chords

Gm                 A#
Monty this seems strange to me,
     Gm              A#
the movies had that movie thing
Gm                 A#
But nonsense has a welcome ring
     Dm    C          G
and heros don't come easy

Now, nonsense isn't new to me
I know my head, I know my feet
But mischief knocked me in the knees
So, just let go
Just let go

I saw the ocean meet the man
I saw you buried in the sand
A friend was there to hold your hand
Said, walk on by

So, I went walking through the street
I saw you strung up in a tree
A woman knelt there said to me
Said, hold your tongue
Hold your tongue

Chorus:
A#        C      G
You don't owe me anything,
A#         C         G
you don't want this sympathy (waste your breath)
A#         C           G
Don't you waste your breath (waste your breath)
A#       C        G
for the silver screen

That nonsense doesn't mean a thing
They tried to bust you in a sting
But virtue isn't everything
So, don't waste time

Now, here's a rhyme that you can steal
Put this on your reel to reel
Mischief threw a rotten deal
Monty's laying low
He is laying low

Just let go
Just let go

Chorus:
You don't owe me anything
You don't want this sympathy (Waste your breath)
Don't you waste your breath (Waste your breath)
Monty, this seems strange to me
