                        I Hate You :  The Stranglers
E|E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------||
Tabbed by:  Michael C

Tuning: Standard


After taking so much from this site, I am trying to put something back.

This is a wicked track off the Suite XVI album. It is a Johnny Cash pastiche.  I 
play it by muting the strings somewhat.  This is my virgin post so please feel 
free to comment.  Enjoy!



INTRO:

Am    Am


Verse 1

Am
I hate you now I always will

                 F                 Am
And when you're dead I'll hate you still

              F                Am       
I'll have my way I'll make you pay

              F                          G
And I don't care if you suffer cause I know that it

                     Am
will surely make my day


Verse 2

Am
You betrayed my trust you ate my food

               F                Am
You soiled my house, with your falsehood

            F       Am  
Signs of remorse,  I ain't seen one

            F
And no punishment you suffer

G                           Am
Will satisfy me until I am done


Chorus:

F                 Am      F
Ooooooh - how enjoy-able to see you squirm and wriggle now

        G                    E
that things ain't going your way

F                Am           F
Ooooooh how simply wonderful to see you suffer badly 

G                            E             Am
Now I think this dog will surely have his day

I'll have my day

[Harmonica solo]

Verse 3:

Am
If you're infirm or merely ill

              F                Am
I'll be right there, in for the kill

F                            Am
Delicious treats which I'll enjoy

       F
and I won't be just the only one to 

 G                               
savour your discomfort

Am
Oh what Joy
