Linger - The Cranberries

If you, if you could return      [Intro]

Don't let it (burn/fade) (x2)       (x2)

I'm sure I might be rude         C# C# G# G#

    but it's just your attitude  B B F# F#

It's tearing me apart,

    it's ruining everything

And I swore, I swore I would be true

And honey, so did you

So why were you holding her hand,

    is that the way we stand

Were you lying all the time,

    was it just a game to you


((But) I'm in so deep)            [Hook]

You know I'm such a fool for you

You've got me wrapped around your finger

(Do you have to x1~3) let it linger (x2)


Oh, I thought the world of you

I thought nothing could go wrong  [Hook]

But I was wrong, I was wrong     ((And))

If you, if you could get by      [Intro]

Trying not to lie                 [Hook]

Things wouldn't be so confused    [Hook]

    and I wouldn't feel so used       ()

But you always really knew,      [Intro]

    I just wanna be with you        (x2)
