Weird Al Yankovic

Tom: G

Intro: G C D Bm C D D

Verse 1:
  G                   C
Once in awhile maybe you will feel the urge
     Am        D                  G
To break international copyright law
         Em                 D
By downloading MP3's from file sharing sites
        F                           C         D
Like Morpheus or Grockster or Limewire or KaZaA

Verse 2:
     G                                C
But Deep in your heart you know the guilt would drive you mad
          Am          D                G
And the shame would leave a permanent scar
            Em                                    D
'Cause you start out stealing songs then you're robbing liquor stores
      F                              C                    D
And sellin' crack and runnin' over school kids with your car

Chorus 1:
    G          C         D
So Don't download this song
     G      C                    D
The record store's where you belong
        Em     Bm           B          C
Go and buy the CD like you know you should
     Am         D        G
Oh, don't download this song

Verse 3:
     G                             C
Oh, you don't wanna' mess with the R-I-double-A
         Am             D          G
They'll sue you if you burn that CD-R
          Em                              D
Doesn't matter if you're a grandma or a seven year old girl
          F                                    C               D
They'll treat you like the evil hard-bitten criminal scum you are

Chorus 1:
    G           C        D
So don't Download this song  (Don't go)
G          C             D
Pirating music all day long
       Em      Bm           B         C
Go and buy the CD like you know you should
     Am         D         G
Oh, don't download this song

Bridge:
       Eb                    Cm
Don't take away money from artists just like me
      Eb                       Cm
How else can I afford another solid gold Hum-Vee
       G
And diamond studded swimming pools
        Em
These things don't grow on trees
    A              Am       D  E
So all I ask is everybody, please...

Chorus 2:
  A         D         E
Don't download this song  (Oh please don't you do it, or you)
 A                 D               E
Might wind up in jail like Tommy Chong  (Remember Tommy)
        D       A           Db        D
Go and buy the CD like you know you should  (Go out and buy it)
     Bm          E        A
Oh, don't download this song

Chorus 3:
 A          D         E
Don't download this song  (No, no, no, no, no, no)
 A               D              E
You'll burn in hell before too long  (And you deserve it)
        D       A                         Db       D
Go and buy the CD (Just buy it) like you know you should (you really should)
     Bm         E         A
Oh, don't download this song
