Common People
Pulp
Key : C
Capo
[Intro]
---------------------
C

[Verse 1]
---------------------
C
 She came from Greece she had a thirst for knowledge
She studied sculpture at Saint Martin's College
              G
That's where I
Caught her eye
C
 She told me that her Dad was loaded
I said "In that case I'll have a rum and CocaCola"
               G
She said "Fine"
And then in thirty seconds time she said

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
F
 I wanna live like common people
                                    C
I wanna do whatever common people do
Wanna sleep with common people
I wanna sleep with common people
        G
Like you
What else could I do
                               C
I said "I'll see what I can do"

[Verse 2]
---------------------
C
 I took her to a supermarket
I don't know why
                               G
But I had to start it somewhere
So it started there
C
 I said, "pretend you've got no money"
She just laughed and said
"Oh you're so funny"
             G
I said "Yeah?
Well I can't see anyone else smiling in here?
Are you sure"

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
F
 You wanna live like common people
                                        C
You wanna see whatever common people see
Wanna sleep with common people
You wanna sleep with common people
       G
Like me
But she didn't understand
She just smiled and held my hand

[Interlude]
---------------------
C

[Bridge (1)]
---------------------
           C
Rent a flat above a shop
Cut your hair and get a job
               G
Smoke some fags and play some pool
Pretend you never went to school
                   C
But still you'll never get it right
'Cause when you're laid in bed at night
            G
Watching roaches climb the wall
If you called your Dad he could stop it all, yeah

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
F
 You'll never live like common people
                                         C
You'll never do whatever common people do
Never fail like common people
                                              G
You'll never watch your life slide out of view
And then dance and drink and screw
                                  C
Because there's nothing else to do

[Solo]
---------------------
C | G | C | G 

[Chorus (4)]
---------------------
F
 Sing along with the common people
                                            C
Sing along and it might just get you through
Laugh along with the common people
                                               G
Laugh along even though they're laughing at you
And the stupid things that you do
                                   C
Because you think that poor is cool

[Verse 4]
---------------------
C
 Like a dog lying in a corner
They will bite you and never warn you
         G
Look out, they'll tear your insides out
C
 'Cause everybody hates a tourist
                                               G
Especially one who thinks it's all such a laugh
Yeah and the chip stain's grease
Will come out in the bath
         F
You will never understand
How it feels to live your life
           C
With no meaning or control
And with nowhere left to go
              G
You are amazed that they exist
And they burn so bright
                       C
Whilst you can only wonder why

[Bridge (2)]
---------------------
       C
Rent a flat above a shop
Cut your hair and get a job
           G
Smoke some fags and play some pool
Pretend you never went to school
                 C
But still you'll never get it right
'Cause when you're laid in bed at night
        G
Watching roaches climb the wall
If you called your Dad he could stop it all, yeah

[Chorus (5)]
---------------------
F
 Never live like common people
                              C
Never do what common people do
Never fail like common people
                                       G
Never watch your life slide out of view
And then dance and drink and screw
                                  C
Because there's nothing else to do

[Outro]
---------------------
C
 Wanna live with common people like you
Wanna live with common people like you
Wanna live with common people like you
Wanna live with common people like you
Wanna live with common people like you
Wanna live with common people like you
Wanna live with common people like you
Oh yeah
