Pencil Full Of Lead Tab

by Paolo Nutini


Pencil full of lead!!!!

I’ve got a sheet for my bed
 
and a pillow for my head; 
I’ve got a pencil full of lead; 
and some water for my throat 
                 
I’ve got buttons for my coat; and sails on my boat
    
So much more than I needed before 
                                                        
I got money in the meter and a two bar heater
 
Now it’s getting hotter; 
Oh it’s only getting sweeter 
I got legs on my chair and a head full of hair 
Pot and a pan 
And some shoes on my feet; 
                                             
I got a shelf full of books and most of my teeth 
A few pairs of socks and a door with a lock; 
                                                   
I got food in my belly and a license for my telly
           
And nothing’s gonna bring me down 
(musical solo – , , , , , )


I got a nice guitar and tyres on my car 
I got most of the means; and scripts for the scenes 
         
I’m out and about, so I’m in with a shout 
            
I got a fair bit of chat but better than that
                                          
Food in my belly and a license for my telly 
             
and nothing's going to bring me down 

(musical solo – , , , , , )
Nothing’s gonna bring me down
 
But best of all (best of all) 
I’ve got my baby 

But best of all (best of all) 
                      
I’ve got my baby
                                               
She’s mighty fine and says she’s all mine 
            
And nothing’s going to bring me down 
(musical solo – , , , , , )


But best of all (best of all) 
I’ve got my baby 

But best of all (best of all) 
                      
I’ve got my baby
                                               
She’s mighty fine and says she’s all mine 


playing it with reggea chords is good, equally give it a blues feel!! Josh! the 
biggest paolo fan ever!
