There is nothing left that I wish to have

She is still left with arms outstretched

Plastic pack, male class, polyethylene

Decaffeinated leather, keep all surfaces clean

if you're drunk, believe me, sell yourself (????)

if you're drunk, believe me, no-one else

etc...

version 3:

Descending riff (D.r) is played around the open A chord.

Sometimes an octive higher and sometimes altered a little.

Chorus x2

Riff1 x10 (w/ guitar solo: around (D.f) instead of playing it until end)

Ends on synthesised A chord. (on which most of the song is based around!)

That's it, there are more than two guitars playing this but i'm pretty

sure the chord structure is correct.
