 "How do you tell someone" by Cowboy Mouth
 Written and sung by Fred LeBlanc
 >From the MCA album "Are you with me?"
 Previously released on the Monkey Hill/Ichiban "It Means Escape"
 - - -
 This song is really very simple, and only uses G, C, D, and Em. However,
 they use a cheating C (C9?) and put the 3rd finger on the 2nd string, not
 the first, for the G.
   = 320030
  =032030
  =000232
  =022000
 This way, (Except for Em), the 3rd finger stays planted the whole song.
 Tina  says "don't talk  to me like I am  deaf and dumb
 we've  broken down and broken  up so much that  I am numb
 talk  about, don't shout  about, the people  we've become"
 There's  a little girl  who's crying  over here.
 Note that lines 2 and 4 are different from 1 & 3, which are the same.
 Each verse is the same.
 Did  you ever know  me, I swear that I  have tried
 (repeat this pattern 3 times)
 How  do you tell someone  you don't love them?
 How  do you tell someone  you don't care anymore?
 How  do you tell someone  you don't love them  anymore?
