chord progression: D A6/A C/C~ G
Guitar I & Guitar II - strumming
Orchestration

If you, if you could return
don't let it burn
don't let it fade
C/C~
I'm sure I'm happier
C/C~
but it's just your attitude
it's tearing me apart
it's ruining everyday
I swore, I swore I would be true
but honey so did you
C/C~
so why were you holding her hand
C/C~
is that the way we stand
were you lying all the time
was it just a game to you

Chorus
------
chord progression: D A6/A C/C~ G (same as verse)

But I miss you
you know I'm such a fool for you
C/C~
you got me wrapped around your finger
do you have to let it linger
do you have to
do you have to
do you have to let it linger

Verse
-----
Guitar I - single chord strums with tremelo/echo effect
Guitar II - strumming

Oh, I thought I loved you
I thought that nothing could go wrong
but I was wrong
I was wrong

If you, if you could get by
trying not to lie
things wouldn't be so confused
and I wouldn't feel so used
but you always ruin you
I just wanna be with you

Chorus
------
and I miss you
you know I'm such a fool for you
you got me wrapped around your finger
do you have to let it linger
do you have to
do you have to
do you have to let it linger

Slide guitar

and I miss you
you know I'm such a fool for you
you got me wrapped around your finger
do you have to let it linger
do you have to
do you have to
do you have to let it linger

you know I'm such a fool for you
you got me wrapped around your finger
do you have to let it linger
do you have to
do you have to
do you have to let it linger

Linger - The Cranberries (Version 2)

if you

if you could return
don't let it burn don't let it fade
i'm sure i won't be rude

but it's just your attitude
it's tearing me apart it's ruining everyday.

I also like to alternate A and A6 between measures to add some
variety to it.

I swore, I swore I would be true
but 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 miss you
you know I'm such a fool for you
you got me wrapped around your finger
do you have to let it linger
do you have to
do you have to
do you have to let it linger

Oh, I thought I loved you
I thought that nothing could go wrong
but I was wrong
I was wrong

If you, if you could get by
trying not to lie
things wouldn't be so confused
and I wouldn't feel so used
but you always ruin you
I just wanna be with you

and I miss you
you know I'm such a fool for you
you got me wrapped around your finger
do you have to let it linger
do you have to
do you have to
do you have to let it linger

and I miss you
you know I'm such a fool for you
you got me wrapped around your finger
do you have to let it linger
do you have to
do you have to
do you have to let it linger

you know I'm such a fool for you
you got me wrapped around your finger
do you have to let it linger
do you have to
do you have to
do you have to let it linger
