Song Title: If I didn't love you I'd hate you
Artist: Squeeze


The last time I sent in a song, some of the chords shifted
slightly.  Listen to the song to get a better idea of how
to play it just in case.  :)
Please post corrections if I'm way off here.

A different interpretation

Words basically taken from what's above, with revised (and hopefully more
correct) chords.

Figured out by Geordan Rosario (geordan@csua.berkeley.edu) with some help from
Ben Scott (scotsman@csua.berkeley.edu).  Ben rewound the CD relentlessly for
me.

----------
Footnote 1:  If played on keyboard, the D must be played D-F#-A.  Won't sound
             right otherwise.
Footnote 2:  That's right, no chord split F#.  i.e., the bassist closes the
             song with F#.
