Lyrical Assistance: Chris Hanks (crhanks@siu.edu)
NOTES: - Standard tuning (EADGBE)
- Intro & Verses use 3 pitch strings (GBE), so I used those strings
only to save space
- Chorus uses power chords on lower three strings (see Chorus Chords
- Play the verses with a reggae-esque "chink-a" style
ENJOY! I can't hear the guitar very well during the chorus, so I'm pretty
much faking that, but I think everything else works. If you have suggestions
/complaints/feedback, please email me at colin@h2net.net

Fought the urge to do it - skin to skin
What the hell? here I go - jump right in
(Repeat both lines of Chorus)

Standing in the doorway of distress
Ask MD for ways out of this mess
A wave of panic every time that I lose a hair
I believe I'm falling apart but quite despair
(Repeat Verse lines 1,2,3,4b)
Turns into this one thing I just can't ignore
Don't know what I am feeling anymore
I guess it's time to end this affair
Like I don't care - I don't care
(Repeat Chorus: Each line twice)
(Repeat Intro, except hold the 8 on the G-string; no ending chords)
