Music notes:

-The verse music for verses 1 and 2 basically consists of alternating

between group 2 and group 1 four times ending with group one playing

twice instead of once.

-For verse 3 you stop on the first C5/G of the fourth alternation,

allow a little bit of silence for the line "God's truth.." and then

jump right into the chorus music.

-The chorus music is groups 3 and 1 alternating with distorted guitar

playing too, it also ends with group 1 playing twice instead of once.

-The ending is just group 1 distorted over and over finally ending on

the G5 with feedback.

Verse 1:

Speak I'm listening

Baby I'm your sweet thing

Believe what I'm saying

God's truth I'm not lying

Verse 2:

Aahh...We lie steady

Rest your head on me

I'll smooth it nicely

Rub it better 'til it bleeds

Ha haa..We and you believe me

call out again

Ha ha I'm caught in your wake

getting even

Verse 3:

Aaahh... I was joking

Sweet Babe let me stroke it

take I give it

God's truth I'm not lying

Aahh...We and you believe me

Ha...ah ah I'm caught in your wake

I'll make it better

Ha and rub 'til it bleeds

I'll rub it until it
