SQUEEZE - "tempted" Tablature
Official SQUEEZE Tablature & Sheet Music »

Tempted- Difford and Tilbrook
I bought a toothbrush, some tooth paste,
A flannel for my face,
Pajamas, a hairbrush, new shoes and a case.
I said to my reflection, "Let's get out of this place."
Past the church and the steeple; the lorrie on the hill.
he billboards and the buildings, the mem'ries of it still
Keeps falling and calling, but forget it all--
I know I will...
Chorus:
Tempted by the fruit of another.
Tempted but the truth is discovered
What's been going on
Now that you have gone
There's no other.
I'm at the car park, the airport, the baggage carosel.
The people keep on flying, I'm wishing I was well.
I said, "It's no occassion."
It's no story I can tell.
At my bedside empty pocket.
A foot without a sock.
Your body get much closer;
I fumble for the clock.
Alarmed by
the seduction...
I wish
That it would stop...
Chorus
I bought a novel, some perfume, a fortune over you.
But it's not my conscience
That hates to be untrue.
I said to my reflection, "Tell me what am I to do?"
Chorus
(followed by cool Motown-like fade out vocalese jam)
This song was song by Paul Carrack; the only American in Squeeze.
For thirty extra points in our bonus round--
What One-hit-wonder band did Carrack sing with before he joined Squeeze?

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official SQUEEZE tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
