Cruel To Be Kind Tab

James:

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: --- (2x)

                         
Oh, I can't stand another heart-ache
                                
Though you say you're my friend, I'm at my wits end
                                           
You say your love is bona fide, but that don't coincide
                                                          
With the things that you do, when I ask you, to be nice - you say

CHORUS
                                         
You gotta be cruel to be kind in the right measure
                               
Cruel to be kind, it's a very good sign
                           
Cruel to be kind, means that I love you
                                   ---
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  -  ---

Verse 2 - Well I do my best ...

CHORUS (3x) fade
