Artist: Eric Hutchinson
Song: Food Chain
Album: Sounds Like This
You will definitely need to listen along with the song to get the timing down.
Many of the changes are not on predictable down beats.
I have tried to indicate where the measures are with | | brackets.
-Intro-
|C F/C | G/C F/C G/C | (x2)
-Verse-
C C#dim Dm G
Don't let this affect the game
C C#dim Dm G
Every five months we act the same
FM7 F#m7b5
But I never get used to putting you off
|G C/G | G7 C/G G7 C/G |
C C#dim Dm G
And no one could've scripted this
C C#dim Dm G
Who knows what'll come of it
FM7 F#m7b5
I refuse to believe it was all just a waste
|G C/G | G7 |
Cause look around
-Chorus-
F C G Am G
Everybody’s on the food chain funny but from
F C Am Em/G
Day to day we get from bottom to top
F C E7 Am
And if you get lost you start over again
Ab6 Gm7
But we don't ever get to no we don't ever get to stop
-Intro-
|C F/C | G/C F/C G/C | (x2)
-Verse-
C C#dim Dm G
I wake up in this oblivious state
C C#dim Dm G
Go to sleep trying to save some face
FM7 F#m7b5
Cause I’ve never been one for acting naïve
|G C/G | G7 C/G G7 C/G |
C C#dim Dm G
And so what? We’ve got nothing to prove
C C#dim Dm G
Why on earth would we soften the mood
FM7 F#m7b5
Do we think that this wire is better left live?
|G C/G | G7 |
Cause look around
-Chorus-
F C G Am G
Everybody’s on the food chain funny but from
F C Am Em/G
Day to day we get from bottom to top
F C E7 Am
And if you get lost you start over again
Ab6 Gm7
But we don't ever get to no we don't ever get to stop
-Intro-
|C F/C | G/C F/C G/C |
|C F/C | G/C F/C |
-Bridge-
C Gm FM7 Em7 Dm7
I would've known better if I was on the outside
C Gm FM7 Em7
I would've known better if I was on the outside
Dm
Looking in looking in, but this
FM7 Em7 Dm7
Chain just eats away at the people who use it
FM7 Em7 Dm7
No one’s gonna say that it's easier losing
FM7 Em7
Touch with who we need
Dm7 Am Gsus4 F (F leads into chorus)
When it's lonelier on the outside
-Chorus- (instrumental)
-Chorus-
F C G Am G
Everybody’s on the food chain funny but from
F C Am Em/G
Day to day we get from bottom to top
F C E7 Am
And if you get lost you start over again
Ab6 Gm7
But we don't ever get to no we don't ever get to no we
Ab6 Gm7
Don’t ever get to, we don’t ever get to, we
Ab6 Gm7 (hold Gm7 2 measures)
Don’t ever get to, we don’t ever get to…
-Outro-
|C F/C | G/C F/C G/C |
|C F/C | G/C F/C | C
