Artist: Guns N' Roses
Song: Prostitute
Album: Chinese Democracy
Chords by: Mati Tallica
Capo: none
Em Eb C#
Seems like forever and a day
Em Eb C#
If my intentions are misunderstood
Em Eb C#
Please be kind, I've done all I should
Am
I won't ask of you
B
What I would not do
C# B Am
Oh, I saw the damage in you
G F#
My fortunate one, the envy of youth
B5 C#5 D5
Why would they tell me to please those
A5 G#5 A5 D5
That laugh in my face
B5 C#5 D5
When all of the reasons they've taught us
A5 G#5 A5 D5
Fall over themselves to give way
Em Eb C#
It's not a question whether my heart is true
Em Eb C#
Streamlined, I had to pull through
Am
Look for a new
B
Beginning on you
C# B Am
Oh I got a message for you
C# B Am
Up and away, It's what I gotta do
G F#
Forgive what you have, for what you might lose
B5 C#5 D5
What would you say if I told you
A5 G#5 A5 D5
that I'm to blame
B5 C#5 D5
And what would you do if I had
A5 G#5 A5 D5
to deny your name
B5 C#5 D5
Where would you go if I told you
A5 G#5 A5 D5
I love you, and then walked away
B5 C#5 D5
N' who should I turn to if not
A5 G#5
for the ones that you could not save
A5 B5 G5
I told you when I found you
F#5
If there were doubts,
G5 E5 D5 C#5
you should be careful and unafraid
A5 B5 G5
Now, they surround you
F#5
And all that amounts to
G5 E5 D5 C#5
Is love that you fed by perversion and pain
B B B Em Em
B B B D D Em
Em Eb C#
So if my affections are misunderstood
Em Eb C#
And you decide I'm up to no good
Am
Don't ask me to
B
Enjoy them just for you
C#5 Eb5 E5
Ask yourself
B5 Bb5
why I would choose
B5 C#5 D5
To prostitute myself
A5 G#5
To live with fortune and shame, oh yeah
B5 C#5 D5
when you should have turned to the hearts
A5 G#5
Of the ones that you would not save
A5 B5 G5
I told you when I found you
F#5
And all that amounts to
G5 E5 D5 C#5
Is love that you fed by perversion and pain
B B B Em Em
B B B Em Em
B B B Em Em
B B B D D Em
