Fine

I'm a boomerang
In the outback
Keep your throwing arm steady
So I get home

I'm a vampire bat
Out of Shanghai
Haven't eaten for four days
I've ordered in a Chinese takeaway

I show more than I hide
I care more than I cry
I'm a phonograph baby
My mind's alive and I'm in criss-cross

Fine
Fine
I feel fine
Fine

I'm a fortune cookie
Full of cheap advice
I'm a suicide rookie
Blowing last call

Show more than I hide
Care more than I can cry
I'm a phonograph baby
My wire's alive and I'm in criss-cross

Fine
Fine
I feel fine
Fine

James - Fine

Taken from the album Pleased To Meet you

Written and performed by James

"Guitar Loop":

e--8-8-8--6--5-----5------------------------------------
B--8-8-8--8--6---6---6----------------------------------
G-------------------------------------------------------
D-------------------------------------------------------
A-------------------------------------------------------
E-------------------------------------------------------

Song Structure:

The song basically is a progression of F Am Bb with the following exceptions: the bit "I show more than I hide" is C Bb, and the keyboard solo is F Am.
Guitar work is limited to the occasional chiming of the chords.
In the "Mixing It Up" game on the Special Edition CD there is a "Guitar Loop" which doesn't appear in the song, but I've tabbed it anyway.

Blowing last call



Show more than I hide

Care more than I can cry

I'm a phonograph baby

My wire's alive and I'm in criss-cross
