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.
