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
