"NO NEED TO ARGUE"

The Cranberries' Second Alblum

As Transcribed By Bjart Helms, bjart@mindless.com

*NOTE*

Some of these songs are a lot easier to play with a capo.

The tab is without the capo, but a note is made if I think

one is used.

Words:

Understand the things I say

Don't turn away from me

Cause I spent half my life out there

You wouldn't disagree

D'you see me, d'you see, do you like me

Do you like me standing there

Do'you notice, d'you know,

Do you see me, do you see me

Does anyone care

Unhappiness where's when I was young

And we didn't give a damn

Cause we were raised

To see life as fun and take it if we can

My mother, my mother she hold me

Did she hold me when I was out there

My father, my father he liked me

Oh he liked me, does anyone care

Understand what I've become

It wasn't my design

And people everywhere think

Something better than I am

But I miss you, I miss

Cause I liked it, I liked it

When I was out there

D'you know me, d'you know

You did not find me, you did not find

Does anyone care

Unhappiness was when I was young

And we didn't give a damn

Cause we were raised

To see life as fun and take it if we can

My mother, my mother she hold me

Did she hold me when I was out there

My father, my father he liked me

Oh he liked me, does anyone care

Does anyone care

I CAN'T BE WITH YOU

Words:

Lying in my bed again

And I cry cause you're not here

Crying in my head again

And I know that it's not clear

But your hands, put your hands

Inside my face and see that it's just you

But it's bad and it's mad

And it's making me sad

Because I can't be with you

Be with you, be with you

Be with you, be with you

Be with you, be with you

Baby I can't be with you

Thinking back on how things were

And how we loved so well

I wanted to be the mother of your child

And now it's just farewell

Put your hands in my hands

And come with me

We'll find another end

And my head, and my head

On anyone's shoulder

Cause I can't be with you

Be with you, be with you

Be with you, be with you

Be with you, be with you

Baby I can't be with you

Cause you're not here, you're not here

Baby I can't be with you

Cause you're not here, you're not here

And baby I'm still in love with you

And baby I'm still in love with you

Feedback (Pitch:A)

Words:

Another head hangs lowly

Child is slowly taken

And the violence caused such silence

Who are we mistaken

But you see it's not me

It's not my family

In your head, in your head

They are fighting

With their tanks and their bombs

And their bombs and their guns

In your head, in your head

They are crying

In your head, in your head

Zombie, zombie, zombie

What's in your head, in your head

Zombie, zombie, zombie

Another mother's breakin'

Heart is taken over

When the violence causes silence

We must be mistaken

It's the same old theme

Since 1916

In your head, in your head

They're still fighting

With their tanks and their bombs

And their bombs and their guns

In your head, in your head

They are dying

In your head, in your head

Zombie, zombie, zombie

What's in your head, in your head

Zombie, zombie, zombie

Words:

Something has left my life

And I don't know where it went to

Somebody caused me strife

And it's not what I was seeking

Didn't you see me, didn't you hear me

Didn't you see me standing there

Why did you turn out the lights

DId you know that I was sleeping

Say a prayer for me

Help me to feel the strength I did

My identity has it been taken

Is my heart breaking on me

All my plans they feel through my hands

They feel through my hands on me

All my dreams it seldom seems

Empty

And inside of me, limps on

Don't believe it

Everything I said

Well I meant it

Cause if I die tonight

Would you hold my head, no

Would you understand

And if I lived in spite

Would you still be here, no

Would you disappear

Surely must be you

But I don't make you lonely

I'll get over you

But I don't make you lonely

But it won't get any harder

And I hope you find your way again

And it won't get any higher

But it all boils down to what you did

In the night we fight, I fled, you're right

It was exactly then, it was exactly then

I decided, decided, decided, decided

And drew you out

In the night we fight, I fled, you're right

It was exactly then, it was exactly then

I decided, decided, decided, decided

But it won't be any harder

And I hope you find your way again

And it won't get any higher

But it all boils down to what you did

Silenced by death in the grave

Well W.B. Yeat couldn't save

Why did you stand here

Were you sickened in time

But I know by now

Why did you sit here

In the grave

Why should I blame her

That she filled my days with misery

Or she that of late

Have taught to ignorant men most violent ways

Or hurled the litter streets upon the grave

Had they but courage equal to desire

Sad that Maud Gonne couldn't stay

But she had MacBride anyway

And you sit here with me

On the isle Luistree

And you're waiting down anything

But I know by now

Why did you sit here

In the grave

Why should I blame her

Had they but courage equal to desire
