The Valley Of The Shadow Of Planned Obsolescence by Jon Foreman
The Valley Of The Shadow Of Planned Obsolescence
Tuning:E A D G B E
Key:D
Capo:no capo
[Verse 1]
D Em
What did you do
D G
With the old one you used to use?
D D7 G
Remember when you two were simply inseparable
D E7 A
And now she seems only disposable and old
D Em
Without a call, bound to fall
D G
She was just a model after all
D D7 G
In a line of lonely models built to sell
D/F# E7
Planned obsolescence works too well
A A# Bm
Feeling disposable and old
[Chorus]
D/F# G D
So what will we do when the colors leave our eyes?
G D A A#
On the day our ashes rise will we still be friends?
Bm D/F# G D
And how will we know when the final chorus dies?
G D E7 G
On the day my spirit flies, I wanna be with you
D
Just holding hands
[Verse 2]
D Em D G
Remember Myspace with my top eight so-called "friends"
D D7 G
Now Justin Timberlake is apparently involved
D E7
But I haven't been there for a while
A D
Feeling disposable and old
Em D G
Back in the day following and likes meant other things
D D7 G
And pretty soon another made up world's gonna start
D Bm
But I think I'd just rather play guitar
A A# Bm
Feeling disposable and old
[Chorus]
D/F# G D
So what do we do with the things that we used to prize?
G D A A#
When my favorite CD's lie in the Goodwill's hands?
Bm D/F# G D
And how will we know that the world will be just fine?
G D E7
Even if the platform dies, I wanna be with you
G D
Just holding hands
[Interlude]
| Bm | D/F# | G | D |
| G | D | A | A A# |
| Bm | D/F# | G | D |
| G | D | E7 | G |
| D | D |
[Verse 3]
D Em D G
Everything dies just as sure as the sun will rise
D D7 G
We live in the valley of the shadow of that death
D E7
Breathing breath in after breath
A D
Feeling disposable and old
E7 D G
But here's a fact, yes, the Internet's just a fad
D D7 G
I only give it a couple more thousand years or so
D E7 A A# Bm
Until we surrender our illusions of disposable and old
[Chorus]
D/F# G D
So what would we do if we finally saw the light?
G D A A#
If we dropped this accursed pride could we make amends?
Bm D/F# G D
And how will we know when it's time to call it time?
G D/F# E7
On the day my heartbeat dies I wanna be with you
G D
The rest is just pretend
[Tag]
D E7 G
Just make believe
D
Just a means to an end
D E7 G
I wanna be with you
D
Just holding hands
