Ninth Pin

 
Am                            F 
  I've got friends in high places 
C                    E 
  At the top of the escalators 
Am                     F 
  We hold hands as we walk off 
C                        E 
  Just like our mothers mothers taught us 
 

 
F                        C 
  And they live in the city 
E                           Am 
  Theyll have a dog and a kid by thirty 
F                         C 
  Ill stay young and annoying 
       E               E E E 
Ninth pin for the win settle in disappointing 
 

 
Bm            D                 E 
  Pour me a drink and i'll be alright 
Bm            D                    E 
  Learn not to think so I sleep at night 
             Bm                              D 
Cause youre born and youre free and youre thrown 
           Bb                              F 
And you're tired and dead and youre grown. 
    Am 
Sit tight 
 

 
Am                            F 
  I've got friends in high places 
C                   E 
  Silver suit and a scalpel to the head 
Am                        F 
  And theyre free on the underground 
C                   E 
  But the rockstars take the bus instead 
 

 
F                       C 
  And they love me like sisters 
E                     Am 
  And you know I cant keep a straight face 
F                    C 
  So I dread it like Christmas 
      E                E   E  
Whats that? big cat! fall flat! on the rat race 
 

 
Bm            D                 E 
  Pour me a drink and i'll be alright 
Bm            D                    E 
  Learn not to think so I sleep at night 
             Bm                              D 
Cause youre born and youre free and youre thrown 
           Bb                              F 
And you're tired and dead and youre grown. 
    Am 
Sit tight
