Song: Baby One More Time (original v B. Spears)
B-side from Turn CD 1.

I know that there are already a number of versions of this song here, 
but I don't think any of them are quite complete.  Having used these 
for inspiration and listened to the song hundreds of times I think I 
have it perfect. I have put in the words as I didn't know them all 
before I started listening to it (neither did Fran the first time 
they played it on radio 1 v someone held them up on a bit of paper 
for him while he played!!)

The position you play the chords is important so take note!!! Get 
practicing those barre chords!!!

Standard tuning

A  :577655      

Intro:
Bm F# D E F# (three times)

(on the Bm minor trying lifting your middle finger off the B string 
so it becomes x24422 v sorry I'm not too good at working out the 
names v think it's B5 v listening to the recording will give you an 
idea of what I mean!!

The intro chords are used throughout unless otherwise stated:

Verse 1: 
Oh baby baby how was I supposed to know, something wasn't right here.
Oh baby baby I shouldn't have let you go, and now you're out of 
sight.

Bridge:
Show me how you want it to be,
Tell me baby cos I need to know now just because

Chorus: 
My loneliness is killing me, and I
I must confess I still believe, still believe,
When I'm not with you I lose my mind, give me a sign
And hit me baby one more time

Verse 2:
Oh baby baby the reason I breathe is you, girl you got me blind
Oh pretty baby there's nothing I wouldn't do,
It's not the way I planned

Bridge v Chorus

Middle 8: (chords change)

                F#               D                E      F#
That my loneliness is killing me now , don't you know I still 

G                        A                 G    E           F#
