Sick of You easy guitar chords by
Lou Reed
Lou Reed

N/A
Verse 1
G

I was up in the morning

with the TV blarin'

brush my teeth sittin' watchin' the news

All the beaches were closed

the ocean was a Red Sea

but there was no one there

to part it in two
C

There was no fresh salad because

there's hypos in the cabbage

Staten Island disappeared at noon
G

And they say the midwest is

in great distress

and NASA blew up the moon
F

The ozone layer has no ozone anymore
C

and you're gonna leave me

for the guy next door
G

I'm Sick of You

They arrested the Mayor

for an illegal favor

sold the Empire State to Japan

And Oliver North married William Secord

and gave birth to a little Teheran
C

And the Ayatollah bought a nuclear warhead

if he dies he wants to go out in style
G

And there's nothing to eat

that don't carry the stink

of some human waste dumped in the Nile
F

Well one thing is certainly true
C

no one here knows what to do
G

I'm Sick of You

The radio said there were 400 dead

in some small town in Arkansas
Bb
G

Some whacked out trucker

drove into a nuclear reactor

and killed everybody he saw
C

Now he's on Morton Downey

and he's glowing and shining

doctors say this is a medical advance
G

They say the bad makes

the good

and there's something to be learned

in every human experience
F

Well I know one thing that really is true
C

This here's a zoo and

the keeper ain't you
G

And I'm sick of it, I'm Sick of You

They ordained the Trumps

and then he got the mumps

and died being treated at Mt. Sinai
C
G

And my best friend Bill

died from a poison pill

some wired doctor prescribed

for stress
C

My arms and legs are shrunk

the food all has lumps

They discovered some animal

no one's ever seen
F
G

It was an inside trader eating a rubber tire

after running over Rudy Giuliani
F

They say the President's dead

but no one can find his head

It's been missing now for weeks

But no one no ticed it

he has seemed so fit

  • Best Tuning App Ever

    MaddProfessor

    I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

  • Well-Designed App

    Rose the Black Cat

    I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

  • Got me back into playing

    Tuliketsune

    I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
