Cheap Rewards tab - elvis costello

Date: Wed, 22 May 1996 22:11:14 +0200 (SAT)
From: Adam Levine 
Subject: cheap rewards by elvis costello


This song appears on the re-eleased version of "my aim is true".
The guitar is capoed at the first fret, therefore the chord names i have 
given are in fact the shapes. the real key is Ab.

          G                                     C  
oh well i feel so loose tonight i might fall to pieces,
   D                               G    D
so be prepared to sweep me out the door,
      G                          C
and i might be horizontal by the time the evening ceases,
     D                                  G
so i think i'll get acquainted with the floor.
          B                                    C   
but i was trying to get away from the things i usually do, 
   D                            G             D
"hello floorboards, once again, how are you?"

Chorus
------
    G                                    C
lip service, well that's all you'll ever get from me.
   D                               G          D   
how could you believe i'd take you seriously?
     G                                           C
with your cheap rewards, your blackmail and your comical rage,
     D                                                        G
just remember that you'll only be the boss as long you pay my wage.


Well all the signposts on this road they all point one way,
don't act like you're above me, just look at your shoes.
i'll turn the light out now 'cause there's nothing left to say,
and it's all been lost befor so there's nothing left to lose.
           B                                C
oh but you could say that you loved me very painlessly
             D                              G          D                   
i would have done the same for you  but you said to me.....

A Cinderella Story (Jonas Addition) Ep. 13
Hey guys! Sorry haven't posted in awhile! Been really busy, also it's Project For Awesome Day! So my brother has this condition called Autism so heres a link : www.autismspeaks.org :] Donate if you can, leave a comment/subscribe/favorite/rank if you cant! THANKKSS. :] -Megan's POV- We walked downstairs, unintentionally holding hands I realized, and came into the front hallway. This was how it should be. Me, Joe, and everyone around us who truly matter. Man, I can get sappy when I'm happy. And i guess I ryme when I'm happy too. 0_o "Let's go!" Nick called from upstairs, running like nobody's business (haha my friend said that today, thought I'd say it here). I honestly had no idea where we were going, but I figured I was supposed to know, so I started walking towards the door when Joe gripped my hand tighter, pulling me back. "Where do you think you're going?" he asked. I cocked my head, noticeably confused. "Uh, wherever they are?" He laughed a little bit and pulled me back next to him. "No you're not. They're going to some hair appointment. It's just you and me for the day." He smiled. "Wow, a hair appointment? I thought you were the hair obsessive." He gave me a shocked look and let go of my hand. He crossed his arms and started walking upstairs into his room. I laughed at his bad-lying skills. "Joseph Adam Jonas, are you mad at me now?" He pretended to cry. "Yes!" he started running now and clearly holding back a laugh. I giggled and ran after him. "Get back here I'm so, so, so, so..." I continued saying 'so' with every step I took until I got to his doorway. All the time he's been here, I haven't actually seen his room completely, just a glimpse or two. It was blue with Elvis Costello and Beatles pictures all over it. Interesting. I walked in. "So...." He wasn't anywhere to be seen. I scanned the room and nope, he wasn't there. "So..." I started walking out when, "So-" Joe's big arms cut me off when he grabbed me by the waist and held me as high as he could in the air. "SO SORRY!" I yelled, half laughing half screaming. He slammed me down on the bed and fell on top of me, pinning me down with his arms. "Sometimes 'sorry' isn't enough Megan Marie." I tried to break free from his grasp, but lets face it, the boy is RIPPED. "Hmm, well what can I do to make it up to you?" I smiled up at him. He leaned in closer to my face and right when I thought he was about to kiss me he said, "I don't know but you don't get these" he pointed to his lips, "until I feel your sympathy." I pushed him off. "Not fair!" "Ow! And that's not the way to earn it!" I laughed and helpd him off the floor. "Don't worry, I'll make it up to you. Promise." I held up my pinky. He linked his around mine and smiled down at me. "Don't break it. I'll be upset." he made a pouty face. I wrapped my arms around his neck and placed my forehead on his. "Well, since I can't kiss you, I guess we'll just have to stay like this..." I stared at his eyes and bit my lip. He started smiling and stepped forward, forcing me back. I hugged him tighter and leaned in closer, to where I could feel his breath. I could tell he was trying hard to control himself, and I planned to take advantage of that. I ran my fingers through his hair, like I knew he liked, and licked my lips. He put his arms around my waist, softly, and chewing on his lip. "So about your rewar-" He cut me off with a massively powerful kiss and forced both of us onto his bed. (he really needs to stop cutting me off!) We continued kissing for what seemed like hours until we ended up on the floor. He broke the kiss and look down at me, panting. "I guess I couldn't help myself." He smiled. "Well, I guess this means I don't have to reward you." He frowned. "But I will." I kissed him on the cheek and swirved out from under him. He hung his head for a second and got up off of the floor. I smiled and walked downstairs after the most perfect morning in the entire world, staring down at my ring. Okay so yeah kind of boring I guess. Comments/subs/ranks/faves. Thanks to everyone who comments/subscribes! Continue telling your friends! :DD
