WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Frightened Rabbit - Die Like A Rich Boy Chords | Ver. 1
[Intro]
Basic finger picking of the above chord shapes, listen to song to get the idea
[G - G* - Em - Em*] x 2
This picking pattern more or less continues throughout the song, I've just listed the major chord changes
[Verse 1]
G
I need to find somebody who can tear me away
Em
From the car crying babies and switchblade days
G
The bark of the unemployment hounds
Em
And the thought of the thick, white skull on the ground
C*
I won't die in the bony arms of the state
Em
To be laid to rest in the wake of the faded town
[G - G* - Em - Em*] x 2
[In the acoustic live versions, Scott throws in a couple of fills when picking the G chord]
[Verse 2]
G
And if the raincoats come to steal my home
Em
There's a big white house at the end of the road
G
I can see you wrapped in Egyptian thread
Em
In a marble garden, immune to the mess
C*
If you leave this world in a rhinestone shroud
Em
We could finally make your father proud
[G - G* - Em - Em*] x 2
[Pre-Chorus]
C*
If I leave this world in a loaded daze
Em C*
I can finally have and eat my cake
[Chorus]
G
I want to die like a rich boy diving
C/G
In a hydro-codone dream
C*
You can die like a rich girl by me
C/G C
Oh how the magazines will grieve
G
I'll die like a rich boy bathing
C/G
In a milk bath I could drown
C*
Want to die like a rich boy
C/G C
Even if we're as poor as we are now
G
I want to die like a rich boy drowning
C/G
In a lake that bears my name
C*
You can die like a rich girl by me
C/G C
Flushed and radiant with fame
G
I wanna lie in a state on the TV
C/G
In a golden cardboard crown
C*
Want to die like a rich boy
C/G C
Even if we're as poor as we are now
[G - G* - Em - Em*] x 2
[Verse 3/Outro]
G
Well I found you now so tear me away
Em
From the feral street they lumped us in
G
I'll be Shakespeare's moon-struck king
Em
We can lose our minds at the top of the hill
C*
We burn cash and carry a decadent flame
Em G
Way into the night and beyond the grave
[G - G* - Em - Em* - G]
