A distinct lack of Audreys music here!
This one is fun!
A bit of a bluesy feel. Dont be afraid to swing it a bit.
I find when it s just me without the band behind me, a bit of blues driver or overdrive
goes a long way to fill the gap.
Mute chords for verses and let em ring for chorus to really get some dynamics going.
Very easy song so have fun with it. Listen to the original on the Sometimes the Stars
album for some guidance on timing.
Intro:
If youre in the market for some loneliness and heartache
well have I got some good news for you
you can get it for a dollar all you gotta do is holler
I can have it in the post by two
if I could sell all my troubles somehow
oh Id have more money than Id know what to do with
and Id shout all my friends to a night on the town
forget whatever had got me down
singing whoaâ¦
if youre shopping for despair dont just get it anywhere
Ive got the finest stuff around
if youre looking out for sorrow I can get more by tomorrow
I take orders by the pound
if I could sell all my troubles somehow
oh Id have more money than Id know what to do with
Id buy a big bag and Id get real high
float on into that big old sky
singing whoaâ¦
if I could sell all my troubles somehow
Id have more money than Id know what to do with
and Id buy a big house and a big fancy car
and feel just like a movie star
singing whoaâ¦
if I could sell all my troubles somehow
oh Id have more money than Id know what to do with
and Id tell the whole world how you broke my heart
and end up right back at the start
