 Strum between  and (/)  - a 'down down up down' ryhthm, which continues into the
 verse. I like to start on the bottom strings then throw in a few top strings as we get
 into the intro..
 (Strumming between  and /)
 I've got my head down in my books
 I've been reading all weekend,
  (Back to G and /)
 But I don't learn anything
 Because my mind is full of emptiness,
   (Back to  and /)
 I've less energy than a stick of celery.
 And then you call  me up,  down in Jericho,
   To see if I'll go  for a drink  or two
   But I don't  want you  to see,
  What  the lonely nights  are doing to  me,
 Bit my  fingers to the bone,
 And I don't  want to hear  you say,
 You  let what happened  anyway
   'Cos you don't  know anything
 BRIDGE / FREAK OUT BIT
 It's a bit weird to work out. I think i strumming between  and  for a few bars.
 Then hold the  for a bar or two longer, then  , then back to strumming between
 and (/)
 I was a stronger man than you when I loved Delilah,
  (Back to G and /)
 With her pants on fire
 But then she cut my hair and left me here,
   (Back to  and /)
 With more inertia than a limpet on the shore
 When the tide  falls so low  I feel like letting  go,
   Though I should go  to  my family
   But I don't  want you  to see,
  What  the lonely nights  are doing to  me,
 Bit my  fingers to the bone,
 And I don't  want to hear  you say,
 You  let what happened  anyway
   'Cos you don't  know anything
 And I  don't want to  hear you say,
 You  let what happened  anyway
   'Cos you don't  know anything

Strum between  [G]  and ([G5]/[E]) - a 'down down up down' ryhthm, which continues into the
verse. I like to start on the bottom strings then throw in a few top strings as we get
into the intro..

(Strumming between [G] and [G5]/[E])
I've got my head down in my books
I've been reading all [D]weekend,
                       (Back to G and [G5]/[E])
But I don't learn anything

Because my mind is full of emptiness,
          [D]                         (Back to [G] and [G5]/[E])
I've less energy than a stick of celery.

And then you c[Am]all me [C]up, down in [G]Jericho,
 [G7]  To see if I'll [Am]go for a [C]drink or [G]two

 [G7]  But I [Am]don't want [C]you to see,
 [G]What the lonely [G7]nights are doing [Am]to me,
Bit my[C] fingers to the [G]bone,  [G7]
And I [Am]don't want to [C]hear you say,
Y[G]ou let what [G7]happened anyway
 [Am] 'Cos you d[C]on't know anything

BRIDGE / FREAK OUT BIT

It's a bit weird to work out. I think i strumming between  [A]  and  [Am]  for a few bars.
Then hold the  [A]  for a bar or two longer, then  [C] , then back to strumming between  [G]
and ([G5]/[E])

I was a stronger man than you when I loved [D]Delilah,
                     (Back to G and [G5]/[E])
With her pants on fire

But then she cut my hair and left me here,
           [D]                          (Back to [G] and [G5]/[E])
With more inertia than a limpet on the shore
When the [Am]tide falls so [C]low I feel like [G]letting go,
 [G7] Though I should [Am]go t[C]o my famil[G]y

 [G7]  But I [Am]don't want [C]you to see,
 [G]What the lonely [G7]nights are doing [Am]to me,
Bit my[C] fingers to the [G]bone,  [G7]
And I [Am]don't want to [C]hear you say,
Y[G]ou let what [G7]happened anyway
 [Am] 'Cos you d[C]on't know anythin[G]g      [G7]

And I[Am] don't want to[C] hear you say,
Y[G]ou let what [G7]happened anyway
 [Am] 'Cos you d[C]on't know anythin[G]g
