The 'haggling' song in the bar-scene in the Greatest Showman - Hugh Jackman trying to get Zac Efron on board! Enjoy the letter notes below :)
E E C C
Right here, right now
D D E D-C C
I put the offer out
D D D-E D C .A
I don't wanna chase you down
.G D E D E
I know you see it
E E C C
You run with me
D D E D C C
And I can cut you free
D D E D-C-.A
Out of the drudgery
.G D E D E
And walls you keep in
A A ^C A-G-G
So trade that typical
E E - G E-D-D
For something colorful
C A G G-E
And if it's crazy,
A G G-E G-E
Live a little crazy
A A A ^C A-G-G
You can play it sensible,
E E E G-E-D-D
A king of conventional
.F D C D D D E E
Or you can risk it all and see...
^E ^E-^D ^D-^E ^D ^C-^C
Don't you wanna get away
A G ^E ^E-^D ^D ^E ^D-^C ^C
From the same old part you gotta play
A G ^E G G ^E
'Cause I got what you need
^D ^D ^E ^D ^C ^C G ^D
So come with me and take the ride
^C-^C ^D ^C ^E ^D-^C ^C-B ^C
It'll take you to the other side
^E ^E ^E ^E ^E ^E ^E
'Cause you can do like you do
G ^C ^C ^C ^C G
Or you can do like me
^D ^D ^C ^D
Stay in the cage,
^C ^D ^D-^E-^G ^E ^D ^C
Or you'll finally take the key
^E ^E-^D
Oh, damn!
^D-^E-^D ^C ^C G ^D
Suddenly you're free to fly
^C-^C ^D ^C ^E ^D ^C-B A
It'll take you to the other side...
E-E C C
Okay, my friend,
D D E D C C
You want to cut me in
D D D E D C
Well I hate to tell you,
.A .G D E D-E
But it just won't happen
E E C C
So thanks, but no
D D E D C C
I think I'm good to go
D D D E-D
'Cause I quite enjoy
C .A .G D E D E
The life you say I'm trapped in
A A ^C-A-G G
Now I admire you,
E E G E D D
And that whole show you do
A A-G G - E
You're onto something,
A-G G G - E
Really it's something
A A A ^C-A G G
But I live among the swells,
D E D E G E-D D
And we don't pick up peanut shells
D D D D C D E E
I'll have to leave that up to you...
^E ^E-^D ^D-^E ^D ^C-^C
Don't you know that I'm okay
A G ^E ^E-^D ^D ^E ^D-^C ^C
With this uptown part I get to play
A G ^E G G ^E
'Cause I got what I need
^D ^D ^E ^D ^C ^C G ^D
And I don't want to take the ride
^C-^C ^D ^C ^E ^D-^C ^C-B-^C
I don't need to see the other side
^E ^E ^E ^E ^E ^E ^E
So go and do like you do
G ^C ^C ^C ^C G
I'm good to do like me
^D ^D ^C ^D
Ain't in a cage,
^C ^D ^D ^E ^G ^D ^D ^C
So I don't need to take the key
^E ^E-^D
Oh, damn!
^D ^E ^D ^C ^C-G ^D
Can't you see I'm doing fine
^C ^C ^D ^C ^E ^D ^C-B A
I don't need to see the other side
A B ^C ^C-^C ^C
Now is this really how
B A G G-E E E
You like to spend your days?
G - E A G-E-E
Whiskey and misery,
D C-D E E
And parties and plays?
G A B ^C ^C ^D ^C
If I were mixed up with you,
B A G A E E E
I'd be the talk of the town
D - G E D - G
Disgraced and disowned,
G-G-G G# G# A B
Another one of the clowns!
^D ^C B A-A G# A G-E
But you would finally live a little,
E-G F E D-C
Finally laugh a little
C D C D D
Just let me give you
C E - D C E
The freedom to dream
D D-C D E .A
And it'll wake you up
.A D E .A-C
And cure your aching
D E .A
Take your walls
.A G A .A-C
And start 'em breaking
^D ^D ^E A
Now that's a deal
G ^D ^E A-^C
That seems worth taking
D D D C D C D E E
But I guess I'll leave that up to you
A A A-A-E
Well it's intriguing,
E E F E D C D-E
But to go would cost me greatly
A A A-A-E E E F
So what percentage of the show
E D C D-E
Would I be taking?
.A F E-D
Well fair enough,
C D C D C D C D-.A
You'd want a piece of all the action
A A G A-E
I'd give you seven,
A E A E A B ^C-A
We could shake and make it happen
G# G#-G# G# G# G#-G#
I wasn't born this morning,
G#-G# G# G# A B
Eighteen would be just fine
A A A A A-A
Why not just go ahead
A A A A-A A B ^C
And ask for nickels on the dime
B-B
Fifteen
G# G# G#
I'd do eight
Twelve?
Maybe nine...
Ten!
^E ^E-^D ^D-^E ^D ^C-^C
Don't you wanna get away
A G ^E ^E-^D
To a whole new
^D ^E ^D-^C ^C
Part you're gonna play
A G ^E G G ^E
'Cause I got what you need,
^D ^D ^E ^D ^C ^C G ^D
So come with me and take the ride
^E ^D-^C ^C-B ^C
To the other side...
^C ^C ^C ^C ^C ^C ^C
So if you do like I do
A ^C A ^C ^C G
So if you do like me
^D-^D ^C ^D
Forget the cage,
^C ^D ^D ^E ^G ^E ^D ^C
'Cause we know how to make the key
^E ^E-^D
Oh, damn!
^D-^E-^D ^C ^C A ^D
Suddenly we're free to fly
^C ^D-^C ^E ^D ^C-B A
We're going to the other side
^C ^C G ^C ^C ^C G
So if you do like I do
^E ^D-^C ^C-^C ^D
(To the other side)
^C ^C A ^C ^D ^C
So if you do like me
^D-^C ^E ^D-^C ^C-B A
(Going to the other side)
^C ^C ^C ^C
'Cause if we do
^C ^D-^C ^E ^D-^C ^C-^C ^D
We're going to the other side
^C ^D-^C ^E ^D-^C ^C-B A
We're going to the other side!
