version 3
Intro: C F C F C F G
x1
Play this throughout the verses with a choppy latin rythm. Listen to the recording to
the feel.
Chorus: Amin G Amin F (repeat this twice during each chorus)
Last: Amin G Amin F G x2
Outro: Amin G F x2 finish on Amin (Completing on the minor chord mirrors the songs
of frustration and indecision, clever musical device!)
Here are the lyrics:

Amin G
My finger tips are holding onto the cracks in our foundation,
Amin
and i know that i should let go,
F
but i can't.
And every time we fight i know it's not right,
every time that you're upset and i smile.
i know i should forget, but i can't.
You said I must eat so many lemons
'cause i am so bitter.
I said
"I'd rather be with your friends mate 'cause they are much fitter."
Yes, it was childish and you got aggressive,
and i must admit that i was a bit scared,
but it gives me thrills to wind you up.
My finger tips are holding onto the cracks in our foundation,
and i know that i should let go,
but i can't.
And every time we fight i know it's not right,
every time that you're upset and i smile.
i know i should forget, but i can't.
Your face is pasty 'cause you've gone and got so wasted, what a surprise.
Don't want to look at your face 'cause it's makin' me sick.
You've gone and got sick on my trainers,
I only got these yesterday.
Oh, my gosh, i cannot be bothered with this.
Well, I'll leave you there 'till the mornin',

And every time we fight i know it's not right,

And every time we fight i know it's not right,
every time that you're upset and i smile.
i know i should forget, but i can't.

Then I'll use that voice that you find annoying
