A7 G A6
And if you take it for given, then whatÕs the use?

And at the same time as the chorus, another guitar plays this riff over

(Verse 2:)
All his posessions around him in his house
Lying beside him his companion and spouse
And in the morning he dress and go to hell
all activated by a little timer bell
(Chorus)
There is a solo but I am too lazy to type it all out here, so youÕll
have to figure that out on your own.
