Alter Bridge - Pay No Mind

capo: 4th fret

[verse]

Am
A lost soul
A willing hand
A scapegoat
The sacrificial lamb
Am
It’s so cold
A one way scam
That takes hold
So devious, the plan

[pre-chorus]

Dm C#m
But time
Cm Dm C#m
It will unravel and expose
Cm
Us for the fools we are

[chorus]

Am Gm
we pay no mind
Fm Em Dm
we pay no mind at all
Am Gm
we must be blind
Fm Em Dm
when will this ever stop?

Am Gm Fm
When the last man falls
Fm
Who’ll be the first to rise and
Am Gm Fm
Call you out?
Am
Who’ll be the first to draw the line?

[drop]

Am Am Am Am

[verse]

Am
Indifference a lasting curse
Resilience, your blessing in disguise
The millions you stand to hurt
Still willing to stand by your side

[pre-chorus]

Dm C#m
But time
Cm Dm C#m
It will unravel and expose
Cm
Us for the fools we are

[chorus]

Am Gm
we pay no mind
Fm Em Dm
we pay no mind at all
Am Gm
we must be blind
Fm Em Dm
when will this ever stop?

Am Gm Fm
When the last man falls
Fm
Who’ll be the first to rise and
Am Gm Fm
Call you out?
Em C#m Cm Dm
Who’ll be the first to draw the line?

[bridge]

Am Dm Em Am
So entitled since the day
Em Gm
That you were born
Am Dm
Still we hear you screaming
Am
Give me more give more
Am Dm Em Am
So entitled since the day
Em Gm
That you were born
Am Dm
Still we hear you screaming
Am
Give me more give more

Am Dm Em Am
So emboldened since the day
Em Gm
That we were torn
Am Dm
You got away with murder
Am
We won’t let you anymore

[chorus]

Am Gm
we pay no mind

Fm Em Dm
when will this ever stop?

Am Gm Fm
When the last man falls
Em C#m
Who’ll be the first to rise
Am Gm Fm
And call you out?
Em C#m
Who’ll be the first to draw
Am Gm Fm
The line and walk?

[outro]

Em C#m
And make you pay the price
Am Gm Fm
For what you are
Em C#m Cm C#m
But in the end we’ll pay no mind
