Just a little bit I'll play one more
This is good.
I'm gonna start
doing like this medley thing
This is a song that was the last song written for the before
Am
the robots record and we did we never got to play it live
E
So we didn't know if
it was really any good
F#m
and so we put it on the the
F
twelfth track on before the robots
D
F
and promptly forgot about it
A
and we never played it live
Em
E
and then in 2011 there was the the terrible earthquake in
F#m
F
D
Haiti and George Clooney and other luminaries, celebrities,
A
Am
Em
did the Hope for Haiti telethon
E
F#m
and right before that aired we got a call and
D
we were asked if we were cool
A
with Taylor Swift covering the song
E
and we were like absolutely not.
F#m
D
Now we said oh my god yes and full disclosure, full disclosure,
I mean I feel like we've established some honesty
E
and tonight in this intimate room.
The first thing I thought was,
cha -ching,
Taylor Swift's coming
this hour.
And then quickly I realized this is for charity.
Fuck, you're terrible.
You're going to hell. You're going.
E
But that's the first thing I thought.
D
A
E
Anyways, Taylor Swift did this song and recorded it,
D
and I'm gonna play it for you now.
