when the bridge comes, it's kinda tricky. i'll just put the notes
above the lyrics cause this part pissed me off for a while—a tab
for it is at the bottom, but I usually play root notes on this part
F A#
I never needed anybody quite like this don't try to tell
F C
me how to be, don't try to tell me how to act...you might,
F A#
get smacked, right in the head and then you turn around
C A#
baby and you might be dead and I know that I'm feeling
C
kind of numb...
okay, when you hit the last C, you're back in the C of the main bassline
up top
after the "come on girl and give it to me now," we play
G E A
