She said, "I know that there will come a time
C5 D5
When I'll get nothing from the blood and the wine.
E
I'm gonna sell this soul of mine, I'm gonna sell this soul of mine
C5 D5
You'll find me in silver and shame
C5 D5
And they'll deny me and whisper my name
E
I'm gonna sell this soul of mine, I'm gonna sell this soul of mine."
G A
"I'll carry myself half-way blind
C5 B5
Through each and every doorway I can find
E
I'm gonna sell this soul of mine, I'm gonna sell this soul of mine
A E
I'm gonna sell this soul of mine, I'm gonna sell this soul of mine
C5 B5 |E B5 C5 . | C5 B5 E . |
I'm gonna lose my lonely mind for you."

C5 D5
Well, there's an answer if only I knew
C5 D5
And it'll carry my heart home to you
E
I'm gonna sell this soul of mine, I'm gonna sell this soul of mine
G A
I'm digging the dirt for a sign
C5 B5
And pray to let my little light shine
E
I'm gonna sell this soul of mine, I'm gonna sell this soul of mine
A E
I'm gonna sell this soul of mine, I'm gonna sell this soul of mine
C5 B5 E
I'm gonna lose my lonely mind for you

Come on, baby, don't be shy, all I want is you and I

There'll be no man alive that can take my place

Give it up, and let it go. The sooner you do the sooner I'll go

Charted by Dexex
I write chord charts to show how, as a rhythm guitarist,
I play songs. I don't claim they are the "right" way. They're not
intended to be taken as tabs which notate exactly how a song was played
on a recording.
