Pencil Full Of Lead
Paulo Nutini
[D] I got a sheet for my bed, [D] And a pillow for my head
[D] I got a pencil full of lead,
[D] And some water for my throat
I've got [G] buttons for my coat; and sails on my boat
[D] So much more than I needed before
[A7] I got money in the meter and a [G] two bar heater
[D] Now it's getting hotter; Oh it's only getting sweeter
[D] I got legs on my chairs and a head full of hair
Pot and a pan, and some shoes on my feet;
[G] I got a shelf full of books and most of my teeth
[D] A few pairs of socks and a door with a lock
[A7] I got food in my belly and a [G] license for my telly
And [D] nothing's going to bring me down
Chorus:
[D] But best of all (best of all), I've got my baby
[G] But best of all (best of all), I've got my baby
She's [A7] mighty fine and says [G] she's all mine
And [D] nothing's going to bring me down
[D] I got a nice guitar and tyres on my car
I got most of the means; and scripts for the scenes
[G] I'm out and about, so I'm in with a shout
I got a [D] fair bit of chat but better than that
[A7] Food in my belly and a [G] license for my telly
And [D] nothing's going to bring me down[A7]
[D] Nothing's going to bring me down
[D] But best of all (best of all), I've got my baby
[G] But best of all (best of all), I've got my baby
She's [A7] mighty fine and says [G] she's all mine
And [D] nothing's going to bring me down
[D] Not today,,, no, no
