This is adapted from a previous chord tab I found, and had difficulty with. I
realised that I could transpose the song and then just play with capo to get the
exact same sound. It's much easier if you're a beginner =)

Dan Mangan- Sold
 
C                             E          Am                    F
I thought the suits had come for me, Found alternatives to honesty
 
C                            E        Am                    F
Body and soul were bought and sold, Patented and out of reach
 
 
            C                         E
So I reach but it hurts, it kills, it screams, 
 
                 Am
And it fills my heart with chills,
      F
And I take my pills, 
 
    C          E        Am                   F
But I'm still tired of sleeping with the light on
 
[repeat pattern]
But if it keeps the hair out of my eyes,
Pack it up and send it home
For just one stab at the good life,
That's enough and I'm sold
 
So I gave up all my wretched thoughts,
And left them out for the less fortunate
And at the gates I'll skip the queue ,
Life's not living 'less you're sure to make it through
 
*(This verse slows down a bit towards the end, hold the last Am and F for 2 bars)
But now it hurts, it kills, it screams,
And it fills my heart with chills
And I take my pills,
But I'm still tired of sleeping with the light on
 
(Resume normal chord patern (C, E, Am, F))
But now it hurts, it kills, it screams, 
And it fills my heart with chills
And I take my pills,
But I'm still tired of sleeping with the light on
 
But if it keeps the hair out of my eyes,
Pack it up and send it home
For just one stab at the good life,
That's enough and I'm sold
Lord, I'm sold, Go on pack me up, I'm sold
 
Go on pack me up, I'm sold, Go on pack me up, I'm sold
Go on pack me up, I'm sold, Go on pack me up, I'm sold
Go on pack me up, I'm sold, Pack me up, I'm sold
 
If it keeps the hair out of my eyes,
Pack it up and send it home
For just one stab at the good life,
That's enough and I'm sold
