| I have enjoyed ftp-ing to pub/guitar and downloading some great stuff!! |
| I’m sure that I am one of many who enjoy the service that you provide. |
| Keep up the great work!! |
| I wish that posters would learn that only the whole song is useful. |
| When someone posts a song with just the opening riff or a few of the |
| words, it is pretty useless. I would suggest that you identify these |
| partials with some kind of extension like .inc or .part to indicate that |
| they might not be worth downloading. |
| Anyway, here’s a tasty old biscuit by Nick Lowe for the archives. |
| I’m also sending a new George Thorogood in a separate messsage. |

| Nick Lowe |
| Intro: C-Em-F-G (2x) |
| C | Em |
| Oh, I can’t stand another | heart-ache |
| F | G | |
| Though you | say you’re my friend, | I’m at my wits end |
| C | Em | F | Em |
| You say your love is | bona fide, but that | don’t | coincide |
| F | Em | F | G | |
| With the things that you | do, when I | ask you, to be | nice - you | say |
| F | G | Am | |
| You gotta be | cruel to be | kind in the right | measure |
| F | G | Em | Am |
| Cruel to be | kind, it’s a | very good | sign |
| F | G | Em | Am |
| Cruel to be | kind, | means that I | love you |
| G C-Em-F-G |
| Ba-by, you gotta be cruel to be kind |
| Well I do my best to understand you (it) |
| But you still mystify, and I wanna know why |
| I pick myself up, off the ground |
| To have you knock me back down, again and again |
| When I ask you to explain - you say |
| CHORUS - RIDE C-A F-G-Em-Am |
| Verse 2 - Well I do my best ... |
| CHORUS (3x) fade |
