Slug Line Chords

(ver. 1)
John Hiatt
[Intro]
Dm G E

[Verse 1]
Dm G                 C      A
I  went to the marketplace
A                       Dm
They said they liked my face
G                     E7
Better than a digital watch
E7
You got it, we're pros and we can spot it
   Dm G                      C
So I  thought it was some disease
    A                      Dm
But they were all on their knees
        G
Shakin' hands with my picture
E7
First we sterilize it
E7
Then we merchandise it
E7
Everybody tries
E7
Everybody buys it

[Chorus]
     F      C     Csus2 C Csus2 C Csus2 C
Well that's fine
C             F    C   Csus2 C Csus2 C Csus2 C
Put me on the slug line
               Dm         G
Punch a pretty hole in my mind
    Dm               G
And show me where to sign
    Dm            G    C
And put me on the slug line

[Verse 2]
Dm   G                C
They told me how to behave
     A                Dm
Like any other public slave
G                   E7
Keep a smile on the face of the consumer
   E7
Or you'll become a rumor
   Dm G                   C
So I  got a band of angry sons
A                        Dm
Now we're havin' so much fun
G
Tearin' up the nation
E7
Weapons out of mic stands
E7
Bitin' on the glad hand
E7
They still don't understand
E7
That they were marketing a madman

[Chorus]
    F      C     Csus2 C Csus2 C Csus2 C
And that's fine
C             F    C   Csus2 C Csus2 C Csus2 C
Put me on the slug line
               Dm         G
Punch a pretty hole in my mind
    Dm               G
And show me where to sign
    Dm            G
And put me on the slug-
     F      C     Csus2 C Csus2 C Csus2 C
Well that's fine
C             F    C   Csus2 C Csus2 C Csus2 C
Put me on the slug line
               Dm         G
Punch a pretty hole in my mind
    Dm               G
And show me where to sign
    Dm            G    C
And put me on the slug line

[Bridge]
F#7               Bm
  You made one mistake
E9            A6
  You made me wait

[Chorus]
    F      C     Csus2 C Csus2 C Csus2 C
Well that's fine
C             F    C   Csus2 C Csus2 C Csus2 C
Put me on the slug line
               Dm         G
Punch a pretty hole in my mind
    Dm               G
And show me where to sign
    Dm            G
And put me on the slug-
     F      C     Csus2 C Csus2 C Csus2 C
Well that's fine
C             F    C   Csus2 C Csus2 C Csus2 C
Put me on the slug line
               Dm          G
Couldn't lay a glove on my mind
   Dm               G
So show me where to sign
    Dm            G    C  C/G Dm C
And put me on the slug li-yi- yi-yine
