Seems right to me but may be completely wrong.
Standard tuning.
Capo: 3rd fret
Em G C Em G D
Em C G D
we don't need any more mountains
C
because the trail builders
G D
failed to give us passage there
C G D
so we can't reach the sky
Em C G D
we don't need any more failure
C
there is human tragedy
G D
that's written everywhere
C G D
and we are all too young to die
Em D G C
like a mystery that's here to stay
Em D G C
some people never go away
B B7
cause they've got something to say
Em C
don't sell me short!
G D
you've been wrong too long
Em C
don't brush me off
G D
just because I don't belong
Em C
like it or not I'm all you've got,
G C D
dispose me when I'm shot
Em C
just don't sell me short,
G D
I might not be who you thought
Em G C Em G D
Em C G D
we don't need any more fables
C G
because the writers have passed
D
and left us lesson-less
C G D
and we must find our own way
Em C G D
we don't need any more privilege
C G
there is vivid desperation
D
that is powerless
C G D
that no surplus can repay
Em D G C
like the fix of rapture in a trance
Em D G C
oh, fates are sealed by circumstance
B B7
so you've got to take a chance
Em C
don't sell me short!
G D
you've been wrong too long
Em C
don't brush me off
G D
just because I don't belong
Em C
pass me on by, ignore my cry,
G C D
forget me when I die
Em C
just don't sell me short,
G D
not while I'm still alive
Em G C Em G D (2X)
Em C Em D
everybody's talking about heaven on earth,
Em C Em D
I'm still trying to figure out just what I'm worth
Em C Em D
I'm full of emotion and stuff you can't contain
Em C Em D C
and you just want to flush me down the drain
Em C G D
but you can't make me go away
Em G C Em G D
