Chords for Billy Bragg - Not Everything That Counts Can Be Counted (Lyric Video)

_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ [Gm] _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ [F] _ _ [Gm] Be nice if we could have [Bb] our cake and eat [Gm] it, though that's impossible [Bb] to do.
[F] _ [Gm] But too many have invested in [F] this outcome, they simply [Bb] can't afford for [Eb] it not to come [Gm] true.
We [Eb] ceded too much [Bb] power to the [F] market, _ [Gm] let it [Eb] decide what's right or [F] wrong.
[Gm] Now everyone seems [Bb] willing to lend [Bb] credence, and [C] truth is so devalued, [Eb] it's going for a song.
[Cm] _ _ [G] _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ [Gm] Not [Eb] everything that [Bb] counts can be [F] counted, _ [Gm] who holds the [Bb] markets to account? _
[Gm] Not everything [Bb] that counts can be counted, [Cm] not everything that can be [Eb] counted counts. _
[Gm] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
[Gm] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Gm] People [Eb] have had [Bb] enough [F] of experts [Gm] and their [Eb] inconvenient [Bb] facts.
[F] _ _
[Gm] Here's what the media [Bb] really won't tell you, [Cm] exactly who it is [Eb] that's taking control back.
[Gm] _ All opinions [Bb] are equal [F] in _
[Gm] the [Eb] free market of [Bb] _ [F] ideas, _
[Gm] and [Eb] truth is nothing [Bb] more than [F] opinion,
[Cm] which is garnered with most likes [Eb] to provoke the loudest [Cm] cheers.
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _
[Gm] Not everything that [Bb] counts can [F] be counted, [Gm] who holds the markets [Bb] to account?
[F] _ _
[Gm] Not everything [Bb] that counts can [F] be counted, [Cm] not everything that can be [Eb] counted counts. _
[Gm] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
[Gm] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ [C] _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Gm] _ There [Eb] isn't really [Bb] any room for [C]
dreamers, [Gm] if you have principles [Bb] that's nice.
[Gm] _ The market [Bb] isn't interested in values, [Cm] except for those it can [Eb] define as price. _
[Gm] _ All bow [Bb] to the power of [F] the market, [Gm] _ till it throws up a [Bb] different [F] face. _
[Gm] If you're not white [Bb] or male or compliant, [Cm] the system is [Bb] designed [Eb] to keep you in your place.
[Cm] _ _ _ [Bb] _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ [Gm] Not [Eb] everything that [Bb] counts can be [F] counted, _ [Gm] who holds [Eb] the markets to [Bb] account?
[F] Not [Gm] _ [Eb] everything that [Bb] counts can be [F] counted, [Cm] not everything that [C] can be counted [Eb] counts.
