The chords the whole way through are Amaj7 (while sliding my pinky from G# to F#), then  
playing an E (sliding from F# to E) 

Amaj7 
Been left for dead 
E 
I know it's in the back of your head 
Been left for dead 
Sister you're better than that 

Been sold downstream 
Sold down river to the cousin of the king 
Been left for dead 
Sister you're better than that 

A e i o u 
A e i o u 
A e i o u 

Gonna beat him instead 
Beat all the odds that you got up ahead 
You gonna beat him instead 
Cause sister you better than that 

A e i o u 
A e i o u 
A e i o u
