LYRICS and CHORDS =
Chords - I'm playing in Eb tuning, can be played in normal tuning just fine. the main chord for this is Am7 which drops to Abm7 occasionally. I fiddle with this variation for the verse bits. The chorus goes from D7 to C7 and then back to Am7. The little solo bit after the first 'Love Shit' before the song gets real drags it up from G7 up to Am7 after the C7. Muck around with it, add sevenths and jazzy chords here and there and you've got the song. Any questions just comment please.
Love Shit
This is the story of a girl
Her name is Lorelei
She convinced me I needed love
Or I would die
She had so much love to give
Out of thin air, love she made, Believe
She owns all my love
She is love’s inventor
Saved me from the meat market push and shove, yes she did
Saved me from the meat market push and shove, oh yeah
She convinced me I needed love
Or I would die
She had so much love to give
Out of thin air, love she made, Believe
She owns all my love
She is love’s inventor
Saved me from the meat market push and shove, yes she did
Saved me from the meat market push and shove, oh yeah
Then like a contract from the devil
She made me sign a pact
To owe her love back to a level
What to do with love’s die cast
This debt accrues with interest
She is the only one that can beset
Interest perpetually accumulates on interest
Creating an infinitely unpayable debt
What will it be, love struck folly
Deep love – deeper love – love slave … or deep shit
She made me sign a pact
To owe her love back to a level
What to do with love’s die cast
This debt accrues with interest
She is the only one that can beset
Interest perpetually accumulates on interest
Creating an infinitely unpayable debt
What will it be, love struck folly
Deep love – deeper love – love slave … or deep shit

(This is a very different story
And I’m about to tell it to you now)
Lorelei is the bank that owns the world
Her love is the money that enslaves the people
It can never be paid back
Because the self-created source is not generous
(but spiteful and brooding)
To stop the cycle
That won’t stop until you act
One, love your neighbour
Two, burn the banks
And I’m about to tell it to you now)

And teach your children to produce as well as consume
Take control and run money as the people
Take control and run money as the people
Fat cats sit on their wealth
Dragons sleep on gold
They both know something we don’t
Only a select few can live and not be sold
Poverty and pain
Is inevitable and even necessary
To maintain the status quo
Of the current economic reign
Throw out the government
Burn the banks
They’re giving thin air for your blood
sweat and tears
Money is not good enough
Money cannot breathe
It’s not even good enough for a rag to wipe (something I can't say in front of the kids)

Deep love – deeper love – love slave – love *poop*

Please sing this loud on the streets EVERYWHHERE!
As I am!
Thanks,
