CRUEL - ST VINCENT
Bo[F#]dies, can't you see what everybody w[F]ants from you?
(Verse 1)
[F#]Forgive the kids, for they don't know how to live
Run the a[B]lleys casually c[F#]ruel
Cruel, cruel
riff w/ fuzz and some kind of high pass filter
(Verse 2)
[F#]Bodies, can't you see what everybody [F]wants from you?
For you could w[E]ant that, too
[F#]They could take or leave you
So they took you, and they left you
How could t[B]hey be casually cruel?
The synth/marimba plays this bit
Then the riff again but with a different lick at the end every 2 bars
[F#]Cruel, cruel, oh
[B]Cruel, c[F#]ruel, oh
Solo w/ fuzz
(Bridge)
[F#]Bodies, can't you see what everybody w[F]ants from you?
If you could w[E]ant that, too, then you'll be[C#] happy
(Verse 3)
[F#]You were the [G#m]one waving fl[A#m]ares in the a[B]ir so they could [E]see y[B]ou
And t[G#m]hey were as lau[A#m]ghter, blowing pa[B]st ya, blowing fastly so they can s[E]ee
[B]Ya
[F#]Cruel, cruel, oh
[B]Cruel, cr[F#]uel, oh
