This is a great song from a great Kiwi band. Off the "Playground Battle" album. I notice
just about everyone apologises for their first post(this is my first.) Well, not me, man.
If you don't like my version of this song - write your own!

Cheers

The Fear 
by The Feelers


          Am		       	      
Don't play the tortured artist with me,
	       C			        
Or you can pack up all your bags and then leave.
	 Am
Yea you know what I'm saying and
       C		                    G
I'm praying for you to take heed.
	         Am		              
It's like your mother was drunk all the time
	    C			         
And your brother turned to a life of crime,
        Am
You fear he's lost direction,
        C		                      G
You feel he's finally lost his way


Am
Well look out on the bright side
C
Look out to the world
G			         F
Look out at all the boys and the girls
         Am
Well look out on the bright side,
C
Look out to the world
G			         F
Look out at all the boys and the girls ( ye ..ea  -  1st time through)

Am   C   Am   C

           Am		            C
Don't play the tortured artist with me,
	    Am				C
Cause it's not all about you now what about me
	  Am
You can save your breath son cause
   C				  G
I never said that I was going to leave you,
	         Am		C	
It's like your father, he never came home
	    Am			 C
And your sister spent her life on the phone
        Am		       C
And all the other kids used to give you shit
	G
all the time


Chorus






Dm
Maybe I'll dive for treasure
G
Or maybe I'll ski the world
Dm			        G
Or maybe I'll just go live in the hills
Dm
Maybe I'll find my pleasure with
G
Some far eastern girl
      Dm			            G		  
Or maybe I'll still be living in the hills
          C	         	G       		F        
Ye.....a        		Ye ......ah

F	C       G        	 F
He... 	ah	 he .... 	ah....

Am			           Fm7
Don't play the tortured artist with me
           Am		           Fm7
Don't play the tortured artist with me

         Am
It's a fear of loosing direction
         C
It's a fear you've lost your way
         G
It's a fear of loosing face and that
F
Someone can replace you
Am
It's a fear of loosing direction
         C
It's a fear you've lost your way
         G
It's a fear of loosing face and that
Fm7
Someone can replace you

		  Fm7
Just look out at the world
Fm7  F	    Fm7	F

Don't play the tortured artist with me.
