Stand Up chords

Stand Up

• G

It is the most interesting Gahan's song for me. In 2003 it became a B-side to "Dirty 
sticky floors" single. I advice you to play it by barre chords :)

Tunning: DGCFAD
Tempo: 100


Intro:
G D


   D
You give me untold riches to which I hatched a plan
G                        D
  I drink myself to death just because I can
D
Gave me many choices I didn't understand
G                             D
  Crawled across the floor I knew I couldn't stand


Chorus:
C G         D
    I can't lie to myself this way
C G           D
    I have to stand up and walk away
C G         D
    I can't lie to myself this way
C G            D
    I have to stand up and walk away

 F      G D
Stand up ×3
 F      G D
Stand up and walk
 G      D
Away...


Hard to watch you suffer, so hard to feel the pain
But you're wrapped so tight in your one block world
Too scared to make the change
Ask yourself this question while you're playing with your gun
Is your finger shaking on the trigger, are you really having fun?


Chorus:
I can't lie to myself today
I have to stand up and walk away
I can't lie to myself this way
I have to stand up and walk away

Stand up ×3
Stand up and walk
Away


Bridge:

G D

     C
Stop talking
    D
Try listening
C                       D
  To what I'm trying to say
          C
If you're walking
        D
You're breathing
C                      D
  Maybe you can make a change


You give me untold riches to which I hatched a plan
I drink myself to death just because I can
Now I'm judge and jury. Are you having so much fun
Sitting up there on your throne? I've only just begun


Chorus:
I can't lie to myself this way
I have to stand up and walk away
I can't lie to myself today
I have to stand up and walk away

Stand up ×3
Stand up and walk
Away
