Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
All my life I tried to run away from the sound
that chase me from behind my ears
And I've had this calling since my early years
And with every note I hit I faced my fears
So I prayed one day I'd find a way
to deny the thought but it just stayed
so I crossed my fingers and all I can say
is that every song I sing erased my tears
Refrain
So how could you go telling me that
I am doing this for cash when
there's none of that here in fact
That's why I'm braver than my songs
Chorus
Cause love not money made me stay
Love not money made me feel I'm okay
And I'll never go away cause I've got love not money
Dpause
And that is, that is the only way
do intro chords
(do stanza chord pattern)
Ever since that day they put me down
Well inside this urge to paint the town
With my screams and shouts these deafening sounds
well my heart decided I should stand my ground
(do refrain chord pattern)
Well all the porn stars are to blame
For they get bought without a shame
And we all know they're singing lame
That's why I'm braver than my songs
(do chorus chord pattern)
Bridge
(I'm not for sale, no I'm not for sale)
(do stanza chord pattern)
I don't wanna be misunderstood
don't waste my time, I think you should just
open your minds, and read between the lines
(A-D)
You cant buy me, you can try but I'm not for sale
You cant bribe into doing things I don't wanna do
Cause I'm not for sale
You can't tell me what to sing and how to sing it
just so I can have your money,No honey
I'm not for sale, I'm not for sale
