It's the first time I've sent anything to you, so i hope I'm doing it right. The spacing may not appear right as I send this to you, it was written in New Courier font, I think. If there is a better way to write tab please reply. Charity - Skunk Anansie My first attempt at transcription, so don't expect perfection - any constructive comments can be mailed to christopher.johnson@ncl.ac.uk. There is no form of timing shown in this, so listen to the record. Chords Used

AWhy does C#myour world Akeep buryingC#m, AGorging much C#mdeeper than Ait's ever beenC#m,
GRubbing still harder, salt on my F#heart, GLicking my burns while I grovel in your F#dirt.

But F#your bludgeoned, intentioned objectives Are screwing with Gmy mind, screwing with my F#mind.
