Leyla McCalla – The Capitalist Blues chords

[Verse 1]
GYou keep telling me
GTo climb this ladder
GI've got to pay my dues
CBut as I rise
CThe stakes get higher
GI've got the capitalist blues
       DAnd if I give everything
D                          GI won't have much more to lose

[Verse 2]
GI am swimming in an ocean of sharks
GThey are telling me how I'm gonna make
GMy little mark
CIn this cold, cold world
                 DIt can be such a cold, cold world

[Verse 3]
GYou keep telling me to go a little higher
GTry to take a different view
CBut you can see
CI'm not inspired
GI've got the capitalist blues
       DAnd if I give everything
                          GI won't have much more to lose

[Verse 4]
GIt's not fair, it's not right
GI don't know what I'm gonna do with my life
GIt's not fair, it's not right
GI wasn't born to just endure all this strife
GTryna make my way
        CIn this cold, cold world
                 DIt can be such a cold, cold world
