Sick Muse by Metric
Sick Muse
Capo on 2nd fret
Probably, in my opinion, the best song on Metric's latest album, Fantasies. It's
a simpler way of playing the song that I came up with, instead of using the
dreaded F#m, as played when not using the capo. Once again, just my opinion. Hope you like...

Watch out Cupid
Stuck me with a sickness
Pull your little arrows out
And let me live my life
You better watch out, Cupid
Stuck me with a sickness
Pull your little arrows out
Let me live my life

All the blondes are fantasies
And we looked at them eleven ways
You said, "look at me, " and looked away
And you wrote the song I wanna play
I'll write you harmony in C
Everybody, everybody just wanna fall in love
Everybody, everybody just wanna play the lead
Everybody, everybody just wanna fall in love
Everybody, everybody just wanna play the lead
Play the lead, play the lead
Watch out, Cupid
Money is a sick muse
Pull your little arrows out
And let me live my life
She said, "I'm with stupid"
Money is a sick muse
Pull your little arrows out
Let me live my life
The one I'd better lead
All the blondes are fantasies
And we looked at them eleven ways
You said, "look at me, " and looked away
And you wrote the song I wanna play
I'll write you harmony in C
Everybody, everybody just wanna fall in love
Everybody, everybody just wanna play the lead
Everybody, everybody just wanna fall in love
Everybody, everybody just wanna play the lead
Play the lead, play the lead
I'll write you harmony in C
